Retro is even harder to define than Classic. To me, the Civic is a classic really, but gets in purely because I really like them. Retro is more typically 80s and 90s to me, and that's the main focus of the title - hence Preludes are covered right up to fifth generation!
In that case I will drop you an email :D

It's now on sale. Might take a few days to reach the shops, but ordered copies are now being received. Spot the Prelude!

I've done a fair to bit to big-up the Preludes, as it's utterly shameful how little they're valued by the wider world. I'm utterly failing to sell my own, but then I'm increasingly reluctant to say goodbye to it!

If you're struggling to find it (distribution is a nightmare with fresh titles), you can always take the direct option.

It's in WH Smith now, picked up my copy yesterday. 8-)

The £1500 buys section at the back, while it was nice to see various generations of Prelude in there, when it mentioned the engine options, the VTEC model power you could have noted about the JDMs being 197bhp too. :wink:

Good little mag though, look forward to the next one. 8-)

Thanks! Apols for the J-spec oversight. Hard to cram every detail in.

We have just got the go-ahead for this series, so there will be more! Next issue will be on sale in June hopefully. Owner Stories always welcome. Would love some first/second gen action.
