I like it but I dont subscribe even though I should. I would like to find one from the states though.

I'm a subscriber and have also purchased a bunch of back issues.

Lots of great tips on what to look for when buying a particular used Mercedes.

It's my favorite MB magazine. Barnes and Noble sells it for $10 and getting a subscription will cost me about $120. It's a wash, so I'll just keep going to B&N.

Did you enjoy the article about the W124 coupes?

the article about the coupes was awesome...

i like the entire magazine.... nothing like this here. Sad to say, but it puts the MBCA mag to shame

If you want to know about Bonnets, Boots, Carburettors and Tyres, it's your magazine.

They are still Benzes.

As long as they don't also write about Jags, Aston Martins, Mini-Coopers, et al., then I am a happy camper.

Although I must admit to initially having a hard time with terms like cossetted, MOT, VAM, fetted, etc.

One of the guys here on the forum writes for them. Met him a few weeks back. Turns out he lives a couple of blocks from me. Really great guy.

Yes, I enjoy Reed's articles.

I really enjoy reading about his diesel cars and his little Pagoda SL.

I used to buy it at Barnes & Noble but now I just read it there for free with all the other freeloaders.

Are you the guy who left smudge marks on my copy???

The problem with getting it at B&N is that they only get a few copies and it is always a month late.

Could be. As far as being a month late, there is little content that is time sensitive anyway unless one is looking for info on the new cars which is not really their thing.

For example, I will be ordering an '08 C300 soon and know more about the car than the dealer because of all the net discussions on it. Goodbye C320.
