Car Dealer is jam-packed with automotive goodness that’s not to be missed – and it’s all free!
It’s had a refresh for the latest edition that makes it even better suited to the digital era, especially for mobile users because more than 90 per cent of our readers visit us via their mobiles now.
The magazine links to videos, and you can move around it by clicking on links in stories or straight from the contents page.
The layout is also now easier to read on a mobile screen, with the number of columns on a page displaying the stories more like those you’ll see on a webpage.
Font sizes have been increased, colours changed and we’ve freshened up the design of all the pages.
You can download the magazine by following the links at the bottom of this story to get reading now on your desktop, phone or tablet. We’ve got news, views, interviews, advice and more. But what’s actually inside the mag? Here’s a taster…
