you're right most of the LR mags are sadly lacking these days.

and, dont get me started on their lousy product reviews!!!

You could have seen them for free by looking in Paul's gallery ;-)

I've exchanged a couple of emails with the TOR editor recently, and I think they realise that this particular edition was a bit of a faux pas.  We are not alone in disliking it.

He described it as an 'experiment'.. and I think it the results have spoken for themselves.    On the plus side, as mentioned, the magazine is now taking a new direction with almost no 'tarmac' off-roaders and a lot more competition / overland / preparation articles.

The magazines are all getting a bit jaded IMHO, and despite not liking it, I have to give credit to TOR for at least trying something different rather than just trotting out the same old formula every month.  

I'm looking forward to seeing how the new format of the mag develops..

I saw that too whilst flicking through in WHSmith, made me chuckle!!  Some of those other pictures were quite cool too.

I noticed today that all the Landrover magazines are quite bland these days,

I don't know, Feb's Land Rover World was pretty good, kept me quiet for about 2 hours, even if it was mostly drooling over some of the stuff in there.
