MotorEasy Reading: Free Car Mag 57

Free Car Mag has gone Land Rover mad this month with no less than five different models including our very own 'Lorry' which we have spent a long time refurbishing to make it good as new again.

For something a little bit smaller we turned our eyes to the Vauxhall Corsa, which is celebrating its 25th birthday. You probably learned to drive in one or knew someone who made the suspect decision to fit a massive exhaust to theirs; either way it's a fundamental part of the UK supermini landscape.

We kick off this month's proceedings with a look at James Martin's American Adventure. Starting in California he'll make his way across the whole country driving some of the best cars America has to offer and sampling some culinary delights along the way.

 

 

Back to Land Rovers and the promise of five different models, that all do very different things. We have the new commercial vehicle offering from Land Rover in the form of a Discovery with just two seats, the company keeping the Defender spirit alive and two V8 engined beasts that pack one hell of a punch.

Possibly the most exciting of all five is this original Land Rover Defender, shown as a demonstration vehicle at Amsterdam show and last seen on the roads in the 1960's. 

Found in a field outside Solihull, the experts at Jaguar Land Rover Classic have spent months delving through the company archives before embarking on a year long mission to return this beauty to her former glory and on UK roads once more.

And finally Bangernomics has made it to Free Car Mag. Looking after your old car doesn't have to be ridiculously expensive. Watch our "Bangertorial" to find out more. 

The rest of this months magazine includes a nod to fashion with the NFL's Tom Brady and an interview with the Car S.O.S team ahead of their new series. 

Enjoy!
