watto, would you like more articles? I am happy to write some, and Have you recieved an article from the MCCNSW for the next magazine. If not, let me know and i will get onto BOB and see what is happening with that. I was a little surprised that nothing was sent to you. By the way i am the webmater of the MCCNSW club so if you see something you need i wil probably have a hi res version of it here.

Cheers

Aaron

Personally, I wouldn't mind more advertising - it's frustrating seeing all the shiny bits for sale in the UK, or trying to find specialists for certain aspects like sources of trim etc. The mag is pleasantly affordable without it, but advertising doesn't worry me at all. Mind you, I do make ads for a living ;)

How-to articles are always good and I'm prepared to offer either of my CLUBMEN for the task.

Oh, and maybe the Binis could be in a tear-off section at the back? Overall, great magazine - loved the leaping yellow clubbie!

I've dropped him an email to check his availability. . . .

Maybe the water-front at gosford (under the big-assed bridge) ?

yeah having owned both a roundie and a clubbie, i appreciate and love them both for their differences.

I'd say most minis that are used regularly are clubmans, especially by the younger enthusiasts.

Is the mini experience being sold in S.A?
i havent seen it in any newsagents or bookstores, and if i did i'd be inclined to buy it.

. Did the person complaining about no Clubbies in the mag miss the article on Pp 30-31about the Minis for hire? Maybe the pages stuck together. :shock:


the way some of these guys are about the clubbies, the pages would be stuck together AFTER they saw them :lol:

Well, I'm still listening, and I'm still waiting for anybody to send me some pics of their Clubby for the Readers' Page. We've had not one, regardless of all the fuss about them here. :?

The Orange, sure we'd like to see a half finished project in the Readers' Cars section. I'm impressed that at your age you are doing such a project. Good luck with it. I look forward to seeing it at Hanging Rock. We could do something on it again when it is finished.

Deadline for Issue 2 of the mag is today (Friday 21) so if anyone wants their car featured or wants to see a Clubman in there, it is up to you to get the material to me. If I get it by the end of the weekend it can go in (space permitting). Any later and it will be in Issue 3.

I've currently got a whole page crying out for Clubbies (that means I could easily fit four in) but not one has been received yet.

Remember, like I said before. If you don't send them, I can't run them.
Cheers, Watto.
:shock:

now i havent read the mag but will be keep an keen eye out for it. I wouldnt mind seeing an issue with more roundnoses that clubby's. Now im not saying it should be all roundnoses but i find in almost every other mini mag i look at there is not many roundnoese at all... wouldnt mind seeing a few more articles on the origonal mini shape (not the newer uk mins with round nose and the diff grile)..

btw i dont have much (apart from the nose ;) ) against clubbys, would just like to see more origonal mins...
