Practical Performance Car Magazine

Post by pablo »

Couldn't wait for the complimentary magazine to come through the post, so stopped of at the newsagents this morning and picked a copy up :-D

Very pleased with the write up and a very honest one at that. The only areas that they quoted as needing improvement was the suspension and our choice of tyres both of which we are aware of. The tyres will be staying for the time being as due the number of events that we do we decided to compromise between grip and durability. The suspension has always been on our list, however i didn't want to fork out several hundred pounds and then to do it again a few months later. (Working on a deal....again 8) ).

Well done on getting on the front cover.

Looks like a great article. I think that this is one of the best proper 'real world' magazines around at the moment.

I supply the exhausts and induction kits to Talon who do the Metro VVC. I have been to their place a few times. It is a great piece of kit for the money.
