Some of you might know ive spent the last week in Stamford doing work experience at the Practical Performance car office. Ive had a great insight into the process of magazine production, and been lucky enough to tackle my own designs for the magazines which will be printed come the August issue. The office is very laid back and generally a great place to be. Ive also commited to doing some web based stuff for the magazine which will be great for my portfolio. Ive been invited back in a couple of weeks for 'press week' where I will hopefully get more design work and witness the final stages of production before printing.

Just wondering if anyone has any cars they would like to recommend for a feature, they are always on the look out. I thought about Lee Hearseys Nova for one. Il happily put any ideas forward though.
