Tnx Zero, you totally center the point :)

First of all the name is not certain so I have not idea of the space the logo will require. I'll try soon with some new idea :)
Inside pages are cool, nothing i would change.

The cover is a bit different from your inside pages. Need to give it the same flow throughout the magazine.

Scan lines make it horrible and hard to read, this is not web 2.0 ;) If doing a logo, i would keep it one single colour that can be changed. Take a look at Evo Covers, they usually take a spot colour from the cover shot to stay in the theme. Text in the circle should be over to the right ie center. Personally i would drop the circle. Use that white space you have their with the sky, use the same technique you use with the colour background text up there. I would take some of that lovely red you see in the right hand side of the photograph. Also with Zero on the title background.
I like you.
The cover is definitely not as good as the pages, and that's a real shame.
You should get some transparency going, none of those big black... blocks :P
Make some text in a circle for the Renault as well, like behind the Fisker.
Try to get a theme going, like inside the mag, with the circles and mint colours.
the only thing i would suggest is taking quotes from the main text and making it larger to intice people to read the article in full like the left hand page: Top-Gear-Nov-2010.jpg
Sainity is the playground for the unimaginative

What a feedback :D really tnx guys... got to say that sadly too many times I work in this way, with lot of people here in the office that ask me to do something and, as I've already written, time to do good works is not so mutch.
Anyway, today I come here at 6 AM to work on the cover without people that piss me off... here is first attempt. As you can see on the bottom of page I've placed a text that talks about autemo.com... if admins are interested and obviously also the editor we can make a montly comp about designing some future car :)

@ Tetra: quotes are good and are also planned, but only for articles bigger than 2 pages... for that reason I've not used them :D

Much better, it's great actually. Move the Toyota further up, and the yellow block further down + lower the opacity of it.
The design competition coopreation sounds interesting, I'm intrigued :)
Yep like a themed comp... for example "Design the urban hybrid car of 2020"... and after the results a couple of pages with winners pic published :) (so that is only in my mind, I've to talk with editor about that).

About the bottom green (yep is acid green not yellow :D) I can't lower it too mutch cause it's to close to the cutting signs of the page :) we have to keep text approx at 1cm from the border of the page.
Just talked with editor and she sez that is a great idea to make some competition in coop with autemo and then publish winners chops.
