UK Amateur Sex Land is a large amateur site with more than 300 girls of all types doing everything from lesbian toy sex to hardcore anal and gangbangs.
Both video and photo collections - the latter in particular - are impressive and varied, and a large model directory as well as category searches make the site easy to browse.
The technical quality of the photo content is great, but unfortunately the videos are a huge letdown, looking like crap in a very low quality.
UK Amateur Sex Land is definately a site worth joining if you're looking for a vast collection of genuine and generally very hot amateur photo content, but you may want to think twice if you're a big video fan.

Update, August 15 2009
I believe I said in my update of the British Hot Girls review earlier this year that it was probably doubtful I would be doing much more with the amateur review category, as this niche just unfortunately isn't one I have much interest in myself (I tend to prefer dolled up pornstars and Eurobabes, as I can see I also started out by saying in the very first line of the original review text below from three years ago), but since the owner of UK Amateur Sexland very recently requested that I take another look at this site, I figure that's a good enough reason to make an exception from my previous statement.
As far as I can tell the only changes at UK Amateur Sexland since my original visit are content volume and video quality. The number of videos on the site is up from originally 179 to currently 254. It looks like the video update pace is steady with one new video a week most of the time, although obviously there must have been a few gaps here and there - or some old content deleted - as the increase only amounts to 75 videos rather than the 160+ it should have been over those 38 months.
The number of photosets has gone up from previously 1,378 to now 1,825, and with a new photoset seemingly added every day those numbers don't quite add up over more than three years either - but more than 1,800 photosets is certainly still a pretty large collection.
A 640x480, 750 kbit video quality is now available for all videos, rather than the original horrible 320x240 option, but by 2009 standards those 750 kbit just don't quite cut it anymore either - you really need something like at least 1500 kbit to go with that 640x480 resolution to get what I consider decent quality these days. They are however certainly still watchable even on my 22" screen, but we aren't looking at any extra points in that 15/20 content quality score.
The site design still looks horribly outdated, but within the member area functionality and navigation is quite decent.
So overall what we're looking at here is a site where I might actually have been a tad too generous with my original score, but given that I don't usually go in and subtract from scores in review updates, I won't be doing that here either. If I were to tentatively suggest a new overall score it would probably be in the neighborhood of 85.
Oh, and to end of on a positive note - the price has been lowered by $5 on the one month membership, and by $10 on the two months option.
Original review
I've always been (heavily) partial to "professional" porn - well known porn stars and glamour babes, but after having spent some time on a few genuine amateur sites over the last five or six months I think I'm starting to see the attraction of the amateur porn niche.
UK Amateur Sex Land is a genuine amateur site, and a pretty large one at that with currently 1378 photosets (a new one added daily) and 179 videos (with weekly updates).
More than 300 girls (all British I assume - and including a few that are now pretty well known porn stars, like Alicia Rhodes and Ashley Long) of nearly all colors, sizes and types get down and dirty in an impressive variety of sexual activities, ranging from "regular" guy/girl and lesbian sex to anal and gangbangs.
Altogether you can use the site menu to jump to 26 different categories - some of them describing the action like above, others referring to breast size, ethnicity, hair color and age (mature, teen) as well as things like shaved/hairy and even tattoos.
You can also browse the sets by model (and the model directory has headshots of all of them) - definately a nice feature on a site like this.
I could go into further detail about the girls and the sex, but given the huge variety I think that would make this review just a tad too long. Let's just say that there's something for pretty much any taste - although with so much variety there's of course a chance there isn't quite enough if you're only after one or a few specific things.
Another neat addition to UK Amateur Sex Land - if you like to read anyway - is a fairly impressive collection of sex stories in ten different categories, including amateur, bondage, hardcore and lesbian.
Obviously we're looking at a lot of hot hardcore amateur entertainment here, but as solid a foundation as that is, the site undeniably looses some value if the technical quality isn't a least decent.
The photo content fares quite well, looking sharp and in a fairly high resolution, 1024 pixels.

The videos on the other hand - well, crap is just about the first word that springs to mind. Low resolution (320x240), low bitrate (250 kbit) and to make matters even worse, only 15 frames per second compared to the usual 24-30 - making movement jerky.
Highly disappointing and a damn shame considering we're talking exclusive and usually pretty hot content.
Since there's obviously a heavy focus on photos at UK Amateur Sex Land - and they generally look great as mentioned above, I will add one extra point to the quality score.
If you plan on joining UK Amateur Sex Land for the videos there's a good chance you could be pretty disappointed though. At least I can't accept six or seven year old technology anymore.
So overall a great (and pretty cheap) amateur site - if your main interest is photo content rather than videos.
