Hello and welcome to issue 2 of The Mud Life Magazine. To say I’m thrilled with the success of the first issue would be an understatement. It’s been read by well over 3,ooo of you, and that figure is still growing on a daily basis, so it’s a massive thank you from Muddy Madam and me.
Now that the Christmas festivities are over, resolutions are faltering and we’re truly fed up with turkey curries, what can we do to cheer you up?
Well, in this issue I take a look at Jeep’s new Cherokee. They kindly flew me down to Sicily a few months ago to drive it, and because of the logistics, I endured 3 overnight stays and 6 flights, finally returning to Manchester airport 4 days later. It was a trek, but good fun.
We’ve introduced a new section called ‘Flash Drives’, because some on press days we get to sample cars for around an hour, which is great when you want to get a feel for a car, but not necessarily long enough for a decent review. This month we’re kicking it off with the new Volkswagen T-Roc and Volvo’s multi award winning XC40.
On the subject of something new, we’ve also created an outdoor cooking feature, because eating boring butties and watery noodles doesn’t float anyone’s boat. Basically, it’s about what can you make using the simplest of stoves and just a few ingredients.
We’ve got lots of other stuff as usual, and free giveaway competition too, and we’ll introduce you to the Bugster, our 1970 Doon Beach Buggy!
Seriously, I’ve no idea why it’s free!
