Default Total Impreza WTF !

Is it me or this is a sh*te magazine

Some of the cars they feature are terrible

I picked up a copy at Dublin airport and will not be wasting my money again

Rant over

Cool

I like it as well and there isn't another subaru only magazine on the market

Without the financial support from the TI team we would of struggled to host the NBO this year they gave us a super donation so all our proceeds could go to charity and we raised over £6500 .

I'm sure if you contact TI direct with your concerns they will sort it out.

Thats a shame actually. I've not purchased a copy for at least ten years, but if you're in your teens and very early twenties it used to be a good read. Admittedly there were always some dodgy cars, but each to their own and all that.

In their defence a number of the articles are drafted by the car owners, I know Ricky's was, so is it the magazine or the owner that screwed up?

I've heard that a reputable garage/tuner will be taking over the magazine ? Not too difficult to work out who when you read the articles

redline's a cracking magazine nowadays, along with banzai. total impreza has always been ****e and when people say that you should drop them an email they'll listen to you, they obviously don't remember the thread about how things were going to change and they'll be no more mistakes at all.

To be fair , I think that was Jap Performance.

Best Total Impreza was issue was issue 5 because it featured 2 cars I have owned.

I prefer Redline because they put my car on the cover.
