Definitely /not/ Evo then - could've been "Performance Car" though, the spiritual predecessor to Evo.

no, it wasn't "I've got lots of money and lets see which car I can buy this month" magazine ;) it was something like CAR or Autocar or something let me dig it out in a few months and I'll tell you all about it :)
