Anyone seen the December issue just realised it should be out now and it wasn't at my usual newsagent on the way to work?

I've stopped buying it - so little of it was applicable to me.

The copy with a review of an Alfa racer, a 'New Products' section full of Alfa bits and the revelation that there was an Alfa tuning guide in the next edition finsihed me off.

Bring back CCC.

I do prefer Practical Performance Car as some of the articles could be a little light on decent info.

I was interested in the Track Car group test as the Striker was in it last year. Saying that I spoke to Mel at RAW yesterday and they hadn't been contacted to do it again.

The website is out of date too.

I got a letter from them explaining that they have had a change in ownership and the magazine would be published about a week later than normal. I havent received my december copy as yet either.

I've stopped buying it as so many articles seemed to concentrate on cars that were 'only' £10,000++, and lot's of focus on race series which isn't for me. Not saying it's a bad mag, just that PPC applies more to me that T&RC does.

To be honest I'm at a loss to know why people rave about PPC. I find a lot of the articles frustratingly light on technical info eg comments along the lines of 'after a bit of headscratching the RR Merlin engine eventualy fitted into the Smart car and now runs very well on Johns daily journey to work', a pretty picture of the engine instalation and thats it........
