PF have never offerred a discount for subscription to my knowledge.

what they used to work on was a notoriously bad wholesaler network so the only reliable way of getting the mag before the vehicles in it got put into museums was to subscribe and get it delivered. :cry:


seems to work quite well...

id subscribe if I got some kinda of discount or benefit... but id sooner the profit margin go to the newsagent who lets me flick through it and all the p0rn in the shop before I decide to buy rather than into the hands of the post office or performance ford!


they should sort it out IMO then they may find their readership figures increase.

great mag regardless of the shit circulation and subscription

I would also subscribe if you got a discount

Have done so for FF and CF for years as you get a good saving.

Not having a go but ive given up buying them, if i wanna read about cars i go to the resto section and if i wanna read about car company ads i go to google.

I just dont wanna pay 4 quid on principle, i want to see cars, can use the internet for free for parts. If i was gonna buy though id buy PF

I subscibe to EVO, £15.99 every 6 months I think, something like that anyway. Best car mag out there by a country mile

Just subscribed to Performance Bikes for £22.50 for the year too

Haven't looked at a ford mag in ages, after a few years it just seems to be the same old stuff

I subscribed to pf as it was costing me twice as much driveing around looking for it half the time!

Not worth me subscribing to ff though as my mate steals it from the petrol station they work at for me

lol as it happens i subscribed to EVO earlier tonight before seeing this

brought this months copy offshore with me and its a damn good read. Far better subscribing to EVO than paying £48 for PF

the offer i got from the mag was some free tour of europe in cool cars dvd. I'd have preferred 3 extra mags
