IMHO the tables have turned. FF used to be bodykitted bright orange ERST's and "look at me I have 18" subs" load of arse and PF was about the cars. Recently I think it has turned around, FF is about the cars not the kits, and is a much better mag for it. (not that im bashing PF or saying they suddenly love uber ghey fibreglass wank cars)

PF has gone downhill massively, the writing seems flat and strung out to fill space, rather than filled with facts, figures and technical info (just take the S1 4x4 cossie feature, great car done a huge injustice by incredibly poor writing)

That said, it would be nice for either mag to do write ups on how the cars they feature drive, like EVO does. It is next level in terms of writing ability (just look at the names, 'henry catchpole' springs to mind, if that isnt a public school educated fop then I'm the dali lama ) but it is nevertheless entertaining, and a brilliant read.

Would be nice to see either of the ford mags doing something similar.

Oh, and PF: The DORF? Please, just stop it. It's embarrasing. At least the name "stig" came from somewhere, it has a back story (which is part of what makes it interesting) not just a bad rearrangement of the word ford.
