 Topic: TOTAL BMW MAGAZINEPosted: 06-November-2006 at 09:59 |

Hello all,
Can I just clear something up? Total BMW magazine has NOT ceased publication yet. We are continuing as normal and issue 75 is just about to go to the publishers. I have just seen the BMW Car Club column by Jeff Heywood and I am not at all pleased. So I would like to do my best to rectify it. Future Publishing does not intend to continue publishing this title but the intention is to sell as many mags as possible to prevent closure. Total BMW is one of those mags and the intention is that it will keep going with another publisher. There is still a chance we may cease publication, but at the moment it is business as usual. When I came on this forum a few weeks ago, I wanted to clear up the situation as I knew the news would get out. It would seem that everyone has assumed we have stopped publication. Only we here on the editorial team know exactly when it will close, or which is the last issue. Please don't listen to anyone else in the meantime, as they do not have their facts straight. I hope this clears things up, Cheers Matt Robinson, Total BMW editor |

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with a girl who saw Ferris pass-out at 31 Flavours last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Yes, that's always struck me.
The chairman is also the editor of the mag. So, no bias there then. |

Matt, good luck in the search for a new publisher. The magazine would be a big loss to the enthusiast community if it were to cease publication. In the meantime I'm sure we'll all continue to support it as we have done to date.

Looks like I will have to set up a new subscription. How could anyone accuse JH of bias? The very idea is ...............possibole!
