Car Dealer Magazine will be published in an interactive online magazine and downloadable PDF version from April for three months.

We have taken the tough decision today to pause the physical publication of the magazine as many car dealerships across the country shut their doors.

During this difficult period we will be focusing our efforts on our new website – which has seen unprecedented levels of traffic from dealers desperate for information – and a digital version of the magazine, published once a month.

We are making the digital issue available to download for free – opposed to the previous £1.99 charge – and each issue will also be available to download as a PDF.

The April issue of Car Dealer Magazine can be viewed here on Issuu:

Any advertiser booked into the next issue of Car Dealer Magazine (146) will be contacted and will have the option to continue their advertising in the digital issue and on this website. We hope as many suppliers as possible help support us during this difficult time.

Car Dealer Magazine – like much of the industry – will be forced to furlough staff during this time and we hope that by taking these steps now we can come back when we’ve got through this as a country to publish again.

James Baggott, founder of Car Dealer Magazine, said:

‘This is the toughest of decisions but one I have had to make to protect the business and our staff during this time. 

‘We hope that our exciting new website, and the huge traffic levels it is generating, will be attractive to advertisers and plead with the industry to support us now so we can continue to publish Car Dealer digitally.

‘Now, more than ever before, dealers need the very best information and we pledge to do all we can to continue to provide that online for as long as we can keep the business viable.’

Since the launch of our new website on Sunday morning, Car Dealer’s website has attracted more than 100,000 visitors in two days.

The free-to-download digital magazine will be promoted to these users online and via our email database.
