Cool Euro car mags...

My boss just came back from the UK and he brought me a few euro car mags back with him.
One of the mags is called "Performance Ford" . It's large , glossy and thick !!
There are some awesome articles on Cossie powered Escorts, Festiva's ,Capris (euro version ) etc. One article is about Group B RS200's : 2.0 turbo engine , 750 hp/600 lb tq , 0-60 mph 2.4 secs, 0-100 mph 5.59 secs , 1/4 mile 10.43/129 mph !!!
Holy **** !!

There's lots of large colour pics, lots of very detailed tech stuff,and lots of humour too.

Another article is about a Ford club meet . There's a pic with ten blue Focus RS turbo's parked side by side

Ahh... a turbo Ford Ka !! ...........interesting.....

He also brought me the latest "Car" issue.

I have to say most of the mags on this side of the pond
are nowhere near as nice...


Lots of reading for me !!

If you like Performance Ford, you'll luuuurrrrve Max Power.

However, for those who are serious about performance cars , there is only one magazine this side of the pond - evo

www.evo.co.uk

Evo rules. The only magazine I trust on these kind of things. That and Autocar, but I don't buy that one.

The best UK car mag is Cars and Car Conversions however it is probably a bit technical for Evo and Max Power readers.
