Emap In Driving Seat With Carweek

Emap Nationals has released the first details of its new contribution to the motoring magazine market, a weekly title – Carweek – available on news-stands from October.

Speaking to MediaTel this morning, Emap dealership manager, Tony Ahmet, confirmed that the magazine will be made up of two sections, with up to the minute news and car advice in one section and classified advertising in the other.

The company hopes for sales of around 100,000, competing directly with rival Auto Express which currently holds a circulation of 116,221 (ABC JUL-DEC92).
