Road Rat

Post by GG. »

Did any of you pick up the first issue of this? I read it over the christmas break and it was fantastic. £12.50 but easily 3 or 4 times a normal car mags content (244 pages with no ad filler!) + production values like an art mag. Fantastic and a big step ahead of 5054 IMO.

Next issue arrives Feb. https://theroadrat.com/

Jimi's boots would have been fine on his pedal effects, but I'd like to see him fit them into an Elan pedal box!

Is there anything about the circumstances of Chapman's death, or suitcases full of cash?

I think there were further details than what is in that photo but I'd need to check. Maybe I'm thinking of Hoovies review of the DeLorean.

Second issue has just landed. Looks even better than the first - will probably need the easter break to get through it :lol:

Not quite sure how it's 60 quid to deliver to NZ. Its heavy but not £15 an issue heavy I wouldn't have thought.

Yep, think so. They seem pretty concerned that it gets to you in mint condition (amazon style cardboard packaging) so I doubt they'll be popping up in newsagents or WH Smith any time soon.
