Congrats to Carl
Turbo Mini Forums

Mini Mag just dropped through the letter box. I thought to myself "I recognise that car".

Great article on Carl's clubman with another set of excellent photographs from Matt. Front cover as well.

Also a two page spread of the Showdown with lots of TM cars and ugly mugs. Don't look if you are sqeemish.

How soon does the mag usually come out in the shops after the subscribers get theirs?

They dont publish the dates anymore, so hard to tell but I expect it will be in the shops by the weekend.

In case I offend anyone, I must add that not all the mugs are ugly.

HOW TO GET A CAR FEATURED BY MATT WOODS.
First of all Wil is correct lol
Well In Carls case, you have to ask if you can feature his car as in his words "doesn't feel the car is a feature car" I guess not mate as by the sounds of it, it only made the cover! Looks like i had my eye in well on that one

Well how to get your car featured, there are a few ways, you can email the magazine direct, but the mags get tons of emails every day and it's hard to get a reply back cos there are just so busy, or you could email me some photos along with a full spec on the car with any history, I can then sort these out and make contact to the best places that i think will have the greatest chance of a feature, weather it be for mini mag, retro cars or banzai, what ever the vehicle is.
Being known to some of the mags now they might just get back to me with an answer on weather they like the car or not, this can all be a lengthy process. If not, this is no refection on you or the car it's self, it's just not the taste of the editors and mags. If we get the go ahead, hopefully I'll be in contact..
I hope this helps a little.

Ahh cool cheers for clearing that up matt!

I always wondered how people went about it, would be so cool to have a mag with your own car in that youve spent hours of hard work on! Well done Carl
