Das Cool Wall

Top Gear Girl · September 4th, 2005, 10:02 PM

Theres a problem with the cool wall fridge magnets, for a start there too small and theres not enough cars. I was thinking of colour photocopying mine so I can have a full size cool wall, but then where would I get the other cars I want to add?

Be thankful you have a set.

Go to the dealerships with a camera. Failing that, just get some high-res shots from the Interweb. Serious Wheels is a great place to start.

It came free with the mag as long as you get it in the UK. If you are an international subscriber they rip you off by charging you double for the mag and then never send you any of the stuff you are meant to get like the Cool Wall magnets or the new Aston & Jag promotional DVD. images/smilies/mad.gif

So that works out to 37.50 pounds for 12 issues, with all the extras each month and a free t-shirt, in the UK compared to 85 pounds and nothing extra for the rest of the world. images/smilies/thumbdown.gif

I don't actually care about the stuff that you get, not enough to pay for it on eBay or something. I just think that it is wrong for them to charge so much more and not deliver everything I should be entitled too.

Jail80 · September 5th, 2005, 7:32 AM

Funny, I got the magnet cool wall. And I don't even live in the UK, but in Yourope anyway. Hopefully I get rest of the extras as well..

But I'm with you Janus about the extras.. I think you should get them. Plainly because it doesn't say anywhere when subscibing out side the UK, that you aren't entitled to get any extras. You are paying for the "full package" as people in the UK do. Ok, there's some problems with DVD area coding and maybe some legal stuff too (dunno) etc., but I don't think that's really a problem if they wanted to treat all the subscribers equally.

Have you contacted TG-mag about this?

And in an attempt to recall year 8 German, didn't Germany fade out the ß and start using "ss"?? Oh, maybe not because I just realised the link those two letters can have with WWII images/smilies/think.gif

Rough translation on google says you're right.
