GIVE OR TAKE A FEW DAYS, IT’S 25 YEARS since myself, John Barker and the remaining team at Performance Car were taken to one side and told the magazine was closing. Not with immediate effect, but as good as: we had one last issue to produce before being incorporated into Car magazine, which was also published by the once mighty Emap.
