Have you ever fancied seeing your car featured in a motor magazine? Do you think it could win an Autocar used car group test? Does it feature in the list below? If the answers to those questions are yes then read on.
Autocar is organising a series of used car group tests scheduled to appear in the magazine this summer, and both you and your car could be a part of them. The tests will be done at a closed test track to the south west of London, on Thursday 5th and Friday 6th of June.
Both you and your car need to be available for both days. You’d be required to bring your car along, allow it to be driven by Autocar’s testers and photographed by their photographers.
The cars will not be subjected to any high-speed or dangerous testing, but the testers do need to get a feel for your car in a safe environment. Your cars will be shot both outside and in a photographic studio. Although Autocar cannot pay you to be part of proceedings, lunch and any fuel expenses will be thrown in.
If you own one of the cars listed below, it’s in original condition, and you’re interested in showing it off in a weekly car magazine, email your details, and a photo of your car, to autocar@haymarket.com.
Autocar will be in touch to organise the rest.
