Default STILL no redline mag :(

i posted a few months back about the lack of redline mag's in the local shops, seems that they've run out again

i haven't even got my subscription copy, it's 10 days late now

anyone else found that it's sometimes "missing" from the shelves?

Subs copies should have turned up by now! Call the mag and ask them if they can help.

As for availability in the shops - A lot of mags have reduced their stocking in independents to help with their efficiency (copies printed in relation to copies sold) so it may not be in the same places that it was say 6 months ago.

I get Redline from the little Co-Op shop round the corner from work every month.

WH Smith also does it.

I have no problem with any of the 9 magazines I buy religiously every month and I live in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere.

The magazines I buy every month without fail are:

-Fast Ford
-Performance Ford
-Classic Ford
-Retro Ford
-Performance BMW
-Total BMW
-BMW Car
-Retro Cars
-Redline

All of which being "specialist" publications, and the last time I had difficulty with any of them was when Retro Ford was first released. I couldn't get isssue 2 or 3 IIRC

I sometimes buy PPC if I see something in it that tickles my fancy. It's always in my small local Smiths
