Camper & Commercial- this month Special Syncro edition

Post by jebiga41 »

Hot off the press!!!! A few things to look out for VW Camper and Commercial issue 61 is now on sale and will be featuring Syncro's at Camperjam (even though they don't seem to be able to spell syncro :roll: ) supposedly next month they will also be doing a special feature on a very special van aswell :ok
Also the next edition of Volksworld will be doing a special edition on a certain 16" Westy :wink: so keep your eyes peeled :ok

Got to be honest, I was disappointed. Some nice pictures, but very little text. Also, it was hard to tell which picture went with what caption, or is that just me?

All things considered, I'd say it's not a bad bit of coverage for what is a niche VW here in the UK. I'd agree that the captioning was a bit hit'n'miss but 3 pages is not small beer. Syncro spelling mistake completely unacceptable though :shock:

PS I went to my local WHS lending library for a butcher's :wink:

not seen it. dont buy anymore because of the little things like not spelling syncro correctly. just got sick of it in the end. supposed to be a specialist mag but the write ups often fall well short of accurate. :cry:
it`s a big round cage and there`s too many animals in it for my liking. To help address this ring lee on 07977 765818.

Think that's you, looked quite a reasonable layout to me... he put the Reg Nos against the writeups I think, and text was always adjacent the pic or pics.

Can you explain where the Syncro spelling was wrong, I don't remember seeing that ? Ta!

Only problem to us was that Myles didn't get a mention for arranging it all...
