James,

It's a modified car mag, that shows modified cars, and some women.

You've bought it before, so I'm sure you can understand that the mag changes EVERY month

There - not too difficult to understand.......

Redline is like, hard to explain, kinda like FastCar was when it was good many years ago...

Well, say MaxPower (and FastCar these days) is aimed at 12-20 year olds, Redline is more 18-30.

The features are more factual, no bullshit, they concentrate more on powerful cars and performance (as the readers are more likely to afford them as they older, MaxPower etc concentrate on boyed up 1litres as its what the readers can afford), its a bit ruder, and just its more what slightly older people wanna see rather than kids.

Bloody good magazine, factual, and funny too. Your never going to like EVERYTHING in a car magazine that caters for all kinds of cars, but unless your some blinkered RS bumming type you should like most of the mag.

Without wanting go give Dan/Renton a big chuffed head, its blatantly him thats made it good, FastCar WAS good when he was editor and Redline was "ok", now hes at Redline thats really good and FastCar is some shit MaxPower clone.

(BTW if anyone thinks more "mature" mags are better as they have correct info, think again Who ever did the EVO writeup in Novembers "Track and Race Cars" magazine needs a slap for his no nothingness Esp the explanation of sizing of external wastegates in the bit about the RD Developments EVO )

And I quote:

Redline Magazine is a monthly car magazine for men aged 18-30 who want to get the best out of their cars. Stuffed from cover to cover with the finest modified motors to come out of readers garages or dealers, workshops, it inspires its audience to create a car to be proud of - and tells them the best kit to build it with. Redline’s audience has a strong sense of humour, but has outgrown the teen values of other modified car magazines in the market. Now they want reliable advice in car styling, tuning and in-car entertainment, in a mag packed with action photography, laughs and beautiful women.

I think that's about right.

Dan has done wonders with that mag - helps that he's a car nut and not just any old journo. Always used to read that the editor of Max Power was leaving to work on Bondage Monthly or something.

I agree with Brom, any man who:

sends a super fit bird to your workplace, who proceeds to strip off in your office, several times, one time while bending over to zip up her thigh high boots, her tits actually rested on my desk for fucks sake. Then the "said" super fit, scantily clad bird climbs all over your car and wears your overalls (and nothing else)

is all god damn right in my book!!!!!

Rentooooon ROCKS man!!!!!



Oh yeah, I think the mag is COOL too!!

Mate I was sitting at my desk when she bent over to zip her boots up. Ask Warren kelly, his bill was increased suitably to include the fact that her bare nipples actually rested on his fooookin Invoice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So yeah you could say that i saw her jugs!!!!!!

I picked her up from the train station at 7:30am on the morning of the shoot and she looked fucking stunning then as well, even though she had no makeup and all of her clothes on!!!!!

And yes i have lots of (now very sticky) pictures!!!

Nah, My Escort and Warrens Escort (the cars we used in the shoot) had been cleaned quite extensivly the day before and i didn't want to risk getting anything dirty, so she had to make do with being picked up and dropped off in my M3.

She is such a nice person as well, really down to earth and seemed to take a genuine interest in our business and stuff, she is certainly into her cars!!!!
