Post by: Bush Tucker Man on February 05, 2006, 22:12:25: It's usually despatched in good time up here.

I do have problems with 'LRE' though, I've had to phone the office about 4times in the past 2 years.

'LRW' seems a reliable service, 'LRM' is purchased at a local newsagent, but can occassinally take until the Friday after publication to arrive in stock.

Post by: defenderdan on February 05, 2006, 22:15:21: It's not often a get the other lanny mags due to having to go to WH Smiths to find them. I'm thinking about a change though 'cos recently LRO has been poo.

Post by: dew1911 on February 06, 2006, 09:57:32: LRW Seems reliable enough, it came out on the second and the post office had the copy on the 3rd.

I've never heard of LRM, I only got LRW as it was the first one I saw in WHSmith, was a sort of walking past and thought I'd take a look moment.

'LRM' is perhaps the one that has the best balance of features, restorations & columnists

You ought to be able to find it in WH Smiths

Post by: dew1911 on February 06, 2006, 15:45:30: Well it was a case of LRW was the one I first saw on the shelf so it was the one I got.

Post by: TimM on February 06, 2006, 16:06:08: I subscribe to LRO (and have had it for 'ages'), just been into town and WHSmiths have it on the shelves now, the subscription usually beats the shelves by a week or so.

Post by: defenderdan on February 06, 2006, 17:52:29: I rang them up this morning to have a moan and it turns out that my subscription has ended. Which kind of explains why i havn't been sent a copy. In years past i have been sent letters and emails asking me to renew before the subscription lapsed but this year there were none. I had decided some months back to stop getting it anyway, i think it has been bettered by other lanny mags. :!:

Post by: v8kenny on February 06, 2006, 22:23:51: LRO's been cr@p for years anyway - whole thing is filled with ads , rich [!Expletive Deleted!] jollies to Africa and over long articles on new models - like many readers are going to fork out 50 + grand on a Landrover .....yeah right
I remember reading a preview of torches couple of years back - they had given one 5 stars for value ...................... price Ã‚Â£117 :shock:
Phoned up and cancelled subscription there and then :D

Frank Elson rules................................OK

Post by: defenderdan on February 06, 2006, 22:31:08: The thing is i'm a lanny man who likes offroading, not an offroad man who likes lannies. On that basis TOR is not the mag for me.

Post by: TULL on February 07, 2006, 00:14:39: subscribe to TOR but do we need all those pages on what 4x4 pulls the birds/blokes, they must of run out of articles that interest people :twisted:
