It is sad when quality, knowledge and passion cannot bring profit in a world when the Kardashian's can parp and it gets a note. It's good that there are still brave people in this world.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Dear MotorPunk subscriber, We have taken the difficult decision that issue four of MotorPunk will be the last. We’ve had a great time putting the mag together, meeting readers and sharing our particular kind of automotive kicks. We’ve also hugely appreciated the support you’ve given us by subscribing and for the huge amount of positive feedback the magazine has received. Thank you. Unfortunately, we just can’t make the figures add up to continue with another year of producing the magazine. You don’t need to do anything: we will begin the process of issuing refunds to subscribers immediately. Given the impending Christmas break, that may take a little longer than it otherwise would. We will promise to offer all refunds by 17th January at the latest, but expect it to be complete much quicker than that. Thank you once again for supporting MotorPunk. We will continue online… and who knows, maybe we will roll through the printing presses again in future. Kind regards, Adam Wilkins Publisher
I agree sad but not surprising. See also https://www.5054magazine.co.uk/editors-letter

As Ian said earlier it is the only magazine that I read cover to cover, all of it is of interest and written with such good humour I shall really miss it but continue to follow their website. They are certainly brave and not stupid

Thank you, Alistair. I appreciate the kind comments. It was always going to be a bit of a long shot, but I am very pleased with what we achieved, and MotorPunk will continue online and elsewhere. Personally I continue to write for other publications, have a new book on Amazon, and am making short films when time allows. You're not rid of MotorPunk just yet  Have a great Christmas, one and all.
