The Latest issue - March 2011, is on sale now. Look out for the bright green Escort, you won't be able to miss it!

Features include:

Practical Classics take a Lotus Elan, Elise and a Eunos Roadster to settle a few scores. Which, if any, will come out on top? Expert road tester John Simister puts the three roadsters through their paces and comes up with some interesting and not all together predictable results.

Spectacular farm yard find - find out why we were so excited when Christian Randall told us of his discovery. “I thought it was an Alvis at first, but I got the shock of my life when I got up close to it” he said.

Buyer beware: One reader gets a disappointment when he find out the newly bought car of his dreams is not quite what it was made out to be. When Neil Rigley parted with £14,750 for what he was told was a 1966, Austin Mini Cooper S, he didn’t get quite what he expected.

PC goes Escort mad. Matt Jones spends a month with the car many of us learn to drive in, the MkI Escort, plus we have an epic reader journey around the coast of Britain in an Escort MkII.

Plus your regular favourites: technical advice, Memory Lane, Rust in peace, Your Cars, Extended Staff Car Sagas and much more. On sale January 26.

When you've had a read, why not let the team know your thoughts below...

Why are you going to settle a store? have you forgotten to pay a bill? ;)

I can't blame you, i'd hibernate through winter if i could ;)
(yes, i know it's still January)
If memory serves PC is a 4 weekly publication so the "Months" of release are never in line with reality. On the plus side we get an extra issue every year (Spring) which comes out between March and April (I think)

They are a bit far ahead now though aren't they?
How about two "extra" mags, so that you can catch up again?

There's a spring issue once a year to 'catch up'. I shall buy the current issue the next time I'm out.

There are thirteen lunar months in one calendar year, so it's only right that there should be thirteen magazines. Gives us blokes something to do when our significant others are having the hallway painted, as it were. ;)

Ah yes I did buy it this month looks good although haven’t had a chance for a good read yet. Why were you struggling with the clutch on the Quattro? :?:

The Quattro clutch is in and working. You'll hear about the struggle in the Spring issue.
