This just popped up on my FB feed. Looks interesting - certainly interesting timing. Does anyone know more about it?

Interesting timing just as LRO closes. Maybe LRO become a bit too diffuse or the different publishers have different cost bases or target audiences.

I personally don’t see there’s scope or demand for two magazines covering series landrovers, but I’m happy to be proved wrong

Ditto, I did wonder if that price was for a single issue.

It could be on a hiding to nothing before it gets started.  With reference to the front cover question, restore or modify.

I am in the preserve the originality camp.

It may have just “ popped up” on FB, but can we be sure it wasn’t originally put there on April 1st?   :tiphat

I assume it means it's focus is on the first 50 years of Land Rover, so it covers 1948-1998.

It appears to be a quarterly magazine according to the website.

That's right. £25 subscription I think, which works out at £6.25 each.

I'd hate to take out a sub and find it was a total dud. Some of the website has dead links (eg the home page https://www.assignmentmedia.co.uk/), which doesn't exactly breed confidence.

Up to the end of the Tdi then.
At a subscription price of £25 for 4 issues annually I won't be subscribing. I'll have a look when it appears on the shelf in the local Smith's.
