Porsche Post has good classifieds section but is low on content unless you like reading about recent regional events. Porsche World is good all round but gets a bit samey after 18 months of reading. GT is like the "Hello Magazine" of the Porsche fraternity. Just MHO.

Couldn't have put it better, Steve! Have to say, tho', the article in Aprils 911 & PW on the new OPC Solihull omits totally to talk about the service department, which really shows they aren't going to probe even gently! PP should have a lot more technical focus, I feel, with authoritative people doing articles on common things across the models. 993s are particularly ignored by all the mags, IMO.
Bought my CarreraS from JCT600 Leeds, apart from the tradein on my Z3M, I think they were pretty good - have no reason to doubt the quality of their work, the car has done 6500 miles without drama, don't feel ripped off. They kept an eye out and found the right car, so obviously listened to me, even.
Cheers, Maurice
