There is not much of a choice for us in the Uk is there!!! It really pisses me off too!!! grrr!
Anyway i get tamiya model mag - superb!
Occasionally get Scale auto enthusiast when i can find it, as its not in all WHSmith stores
Used to buy Fine scale until i realised that they just repeat the same articles each year!
Used to buy the excellent UK mag - Scale auto modeler until they got brought out by Consam who stopped it!

Other than those i buy Banzai magazine for some cool jap cars

I don't have subscription to Scale Auto but I buy their magazines when they have interesting articles (i.e. spraying cars, removing die-cast paint, etc.)

I subscribe to Sport Compact Car and I would love to subscribe to Tamiya Modelers Mag but they dont' carry it here

I thought about FineScale but most of the tips in there find their way onto Google eventually

For my reference I just use Google, it's wonderful.

My girlfriend brought back a copy of 'Model Cars' from Hong Kong which is a Japanese publication. Its an awesome mag about 200 pages thick with heaps of great colour photos and fantastic models. Why cant we have more stuff like this???...

Check it...

Right now I'm subscribed to Scale Auto only. I peruse Model Cars sometimes at the shop, though, and it looks pretty good...

I wish I could get that Tamiya mag, though...

I subscribe to Scale Auto,Model Cars Magazine
Model Cars Mag is overtaking SA in the quality department with much less ad material and more up to date show coverage.
They do subscribe to Europe,so check their web site

Most of the time i get
NZ Hotrod mag
Hot 4s
Fast fours
Tamiya Mag

Most of the time though, im the person who stands in the shop and reads all the books for an hour and buys nothing
Most of the car modelling books are so overpriced here in NZ....SOME OF THEM ARE HALF THE PRICE OF A KITSET
