Looking for Xmas pressie suggestions and wife noticed Triumph World Magazine, currently £19.99 for six issues direct from publishers. Any one get this magazine and is it any good, subjective I know.
Purely a personal opinion but I have bought a couple of issues for specific articles and was not impressed with other content. There is a huge difference in the quality of writing between professional journalists and amateur hobbyists regardless of their enthusiasm.
I have bought and read every edition since its inception. Quality has varied over the years, but there is no other publication dedicated to Triumphs (and Standards) of all ages to such a degree. There is even one article per edition about Triumph motorcycles. I was fortunate to get an article about my Stag published earlier this year, as have others who use, or used to use, this Forum. Being a bi-monthly magazine, 6 issues is a year's subscription at quite a good saving. Stags feature on a regular basis as editor Simon Goldsworthy has a soft spot for them, despite driving a Herald himself.

I too read Triumph World, I agree there are always interesting articles, particularly concerning the history of the marque. There is more to Triumphs than just the Stag, and it's great to see the breadth of ways in which our cars continue to survive. Loved the Stag pickup article this month!

I get it every two months and I find reading about all the Triumphs I've had or wished i had, a real treat from just reading about stags.
I've always been a Triumph lover
I too read TW, the content is variable after all there are only so many Triumph models to write about and therefore at times it repeats its self BUT its the only mag devoted to Triumphs and therefore worth a read
And me. Don't buy it every month (2 months) but always enjoy reading it when I do, I'm more interested in other Triumphs now than I used to be though - for obvious reasons!
