So you should be, they are a credit to the Ford community and as Tesco mate, "every little helps."

how many months later do the FastFord tech section become available for download from when it comes out in the shop?

like the latest topic on Rolling Roads?

i know it would only make sense to come later but how long

Until the issue has sold out, or is over 12 months old (they only keep stocks of back issues for that length of time).

Sorry, but I can't put up Stu's articles from issues that are still available to buy.

Sounds perfectly reasonable! It is nice that they are available for reference. I have all the mags at home, but this is so convenient!

nice one Simon!
