I find that surprising - i never have problems getting a copy around croydon!!

Smiths in the high street always has it if nothing else!!
Either that or there's a couple of newsagents in addiscombe that always do it!!

Can you not get your Newsagent to order it in?

That's what I did, my local didn't stock it either, having said that they stocked BMW Car and TBMW :?

surely a yearly subscription is the best way to go? you normally get it first too.

That is so fooking true :mad:

Subscription is the way forward, especially if you can't get hold of the mag, and have to get it from a shop that's miles away :evil:

It's funny actually, cause i've heard this from so many people. As said, i can walk into any news agents and 99% will have total or BMW car, but hardly any have PBMW. I was lucky to get a couple from Louise this month, but some of my friends have asked me to get them a copy and i cant find any :(

i do know that 'classic american' mag went the same way last year, they then announced that sales via outlets were so tiny it wasnt worth selling that way. they are planning to go 100% on subscriptions soon. when you consider we buy from home and have more stuff delivered than ever before it makes good sense
