Filipino car magazines?

[Tincap]

Actually, I have written to both and the folks at C! have sent me a package of 3 issues...they've taken awhile to get up here to Canada, but job well done!

I haven't heard from the Top Gear people......but C! does look pretty slick and does offer some local coverage, which I find interesting.

Perhaps I'll give Top Gear another try.

Thanks folks! Hope you've all had a wonderful Christmas. The lights must look nice on palm trees...here it's -20 and lots of snow!

Cioa!

There seems to be a major shift in content in the local Top Gear magazine between what is written in the first 2-3 years compare to the 2 years.

I honestly like the initial issues.

The car reviews lately are not straightforward from a perspective buyer's point of view but rather more of a marketing man's take.

Hopefully, they would bring back gadget-accessory-tire-etc. reviews and comparo, what's hot items, and some historical perspective.

I suggest you email your remarks to Vernon B. Sarne ... the current editor in chief of Top Gear Phil magazine.

The original style of TGP was due to it's original EIC, Mike Black who is a car enthusiast himself. When Vernon Sarne took over two years ago, the magazine lost it's soul. It has become just another marketing tool for the local car industry and only interested in getting better "circulation figures" to help justify Summit Media charge it's advertisers more money. I haven't bought a single issue for the last two years.

Mas gusto ko pa rin Top Gear. Di ako makarelate masyado sa C! eh. Pero I do like C!'s Buyers Guide which they do once a year...

They've changed the URLs for the carchart. You have to update your links.

I can see the car chart, but when I click on a particular car model, the data part is blank.
