Wait, have you ever read Evo? That's where those two work at. If you read Meaden's you must have heard of Bovingdon.
Anyways, what does Chris Harris do? If this is an internet-only publication, I'm sure these guys can keep their jobs and still work on this too.

Yeah I read Evo, I guess I've just never noticed I was reading Bovingdon then. But Chris Harris is leaving Autocar for this E-mag, I found that out reading through this thread http://www.autocar.co.uk/forums/p/1218/9138.aspx#9138

I hate Chris Harris.. Maybe Meaden and Bovingdon will make up for it though.

Very interesting- thanks for the link. I really like Meaden's and Bovington's articles in Evo, so hopefully they can throw together some good material online. High quality videos would be great.

Interesting, but a poor choice of logo and graphics. I kinda see where they're going with this, but who really wants to be reminded of the horrors of communism? (and the suppression of petrolheads that follows)
So far, two reviews. Surely not enough to make my mind up about the site, but it's interesting.
And finally, I knew they were going to try to make money somehow (and they have every right to). It'll probably have something like "premium" membership and "plebian" membership for contents.
