Well, without prompting, out of the blue, Total Honda have refunded my £4.50. So all is sorted now. However, I would have much preferred to have had the magazine with my car in :(

It may not have made it to the printers :( They might have it in a PDF or something? Although I would think getting in contact would be difficult.

You can blame me.

They did a feature on my car last issue.

I did a short interview feature for Wax It magazine that was published, and they went bust shortly after too.

I think i am cursed :)

It is a shame, and I was close to renew my subscription too. :(

There is still Honda Tuner at least flying the flag.

Sign of the times, Total Mags have been going for a while with their other titles.

I missed this thread as I was on holiday last week.
I too have been searching for the mag but it is now clear why it never hit the shelves.

I did find the new issue on total Hondas iStore app. £2.99.
It has the honda idol entries of dino's, Pushki's, Matt's and carrisma's cars in it.

It also has the tjc Scotland review with a picture of my s2k and a mention of it winning car of the show! £2.99 well spent then, but a shame it didnt go to press.

Hmmm, interesting! I'll see if I can get someone to download a copy for me.
