Check out VW trends & Volksworld online, also Hot VW's & Dune Buggys have some good issues & articles, get you're local
newsagent to order them in, buy them for a few months & the decide which ones to subscribe to

under 10 bucks and no so many ad's

I just got my copy of Ultra VW through airmail today and it's very good. I think in a couple of issues it will be as good/better than
Volksworld. I personally only buy the American mags if there is something particular in there that I want. Aside form 100's of ads I hate the
crappy b&w pics and the way the features start on one page and finish with half a paragraph 27 pages away.

Can you get Ultra VW at newsagents here, or do you have to subscribe to the airmail thing?

Hey Dave
TotalVW started out as the aircooled advertiser in the U.K. and the mag went for about 4 years, at least some one gave it a go.
With your attitude of not buying a mag cause it is new ,,,,,,no wonder they dont last long.
So that means you wouldnt buy an aussie one cause it is new,,, where is the logic in that, i cant understand.
Yet you want an aussie mag.????
So total only lasted 4 years how long do they have to be out before you would consided buying one????
