I have to agree with the comments about the poor accuracy in MM. I have lost track of the amount of spelling errors I have seen in that magazine.

It really does not take that long to read back what you have just written, I do it all the time with Uni work that I have completed.

A prime example was when my car was in the readers cars section. I had written a couple of paragraphs for them, explaining what I had done to it, and a little bit about my ownership experience, as requested. I then saw it in the magazine, and they had somehow managed to miss out some details, and in between copying and pasting what I had written caused numerous spelling and grammar errors.

Dont get me wrong, I'm not at all offended by poor spelling etc, but when you are paying over £3 for a mag it would be nice to think it had been proof read.

Having said this, I will probably buy the magazine to read about the 300T conversion. It does sound good
