Have any of you got a new issue lately? The last one I got was April (Cover says "Flames...Still Hot") & it seems like ages ago that it got here. I thought I'd have a new one by now, maybe its not far away though - just curious.

Thanks for the replies guys, good to know I'm not the only one. Its only a new subscription (2 issues old) so I'm still getting used to when to expect the mag, didn't know delivery would be so irregular!

Dave, Let us know how you go If you call them, and If you think me ringing them (or any one else for that matter!) will help let me know.

I only got it last friday when I got VWMA at the newsagents. Seemed to be a long gap since the previous issue.

I have noticed over the years with O/S magazines that sometimes you get 2 issues very quickly in succession then a long wait. Maybe they have to wait for the container to fill up before it ships. Happens all the time with R/C mags from the states and Mini mags from the UK

being a newsagent this is a common event with the
mag companies & overseas magazines not just cars
all mags are subject to cliches in the system & there
is a lot of cliches when it comes to overseas mags

Sounds like the guys in the US are having the same trouble with late issues, there was a simliar post on the cal look forum recently. Even one of their writers spoke up to assure everyone Hot VW's was in no (financial) trouble whatsoever....according to him the August issue is being finalised now & he reckons it will be their best ever. Sounds promising.

After this experience of late issues finally turning up I have faith now, its just that the waiting sucks tho'. July should turn up soon.
