brought rev's just for the feature, don't normally buy car mags......

Feature was shite imo......

excellent car, just crap feature, deserved more imo.........the photo from above was sweet, but rest of it was dull. needed more outdoor shots, like in a woods etc...didn't make a very good read either

no offence to beardy, more of a rip of the rev's crew....

how come u choose rev's beardy?

I very rarely read TV, I've gone into shops in order to buy it in the past and they don't have it on the shelf and won't subscribe to it due to no demands for it.
I don't think I'll bother now

i went with revs as Black cars very rare get cover, all the mags had offered the feature, (and said cover if i changed colour) but Revs was the only one to offer cover (other then TV)
Other reason for Revs, all the mags knew about the car 18 months ago and they all where like ye ok we will feature it, even when they saw the car, finished but they always wanted me to chace them, at the end of the day if it wasent for us car builders they wouldent have a job....
BUT
i show pics to simon at revs when i started to build the car (when i was fitting the BAT kit and thinking about 20's), he used to email me ever month and towards the end of the rebuild (V6 etc) he was ringing me ever 2 weeks asking how i was getting on etc.
i would of gone with revs even if they dident offer cover.
i know what u mean by dull, but Black is a hard colour to take pics off as u can see everything in the reflection, so outside would of been even worst (even had people saying is it matt black )

will see how the Total Vauxhall pic come out, again in a studio should be out in a few months.
If you liked the other car shot the one TV did was outstanding, was from above with the bonnet off, and u can see all the detail in the engine, they are going to try and use that as a poster.

as for Jon hes now top dog of Marketing for Merc he was kicking about in a McLaren SLR the other week.

yeah revs were top dogs to you beardy. but agreed with 3corsa the feature could have been allot better. but i thought it would be the black thing again (but hay she's gotta be black )

looking forward to the TV feature.

ow and as for the 400bhp comment? is that with out it breaking down there wount be many that apply. but i bet there are some LETS to follow
