Automobile Year 1993-94

This established annual covers every aspect of cars and motor sport, including the year’s crop of new models. It also contains additional sections offering pictures and comments on the most exciting concept cars of the year. The world motor industry is described, and car history is included, for example, that of the Mercedes-Benz, the bubble car and catalogue art of the fifties and sixties. The annual reflects the whole range of motor sport, covering FI, American racing, World Championship rallying, sports and GT racing and the international touring car scene. Reports by established journalists in each field are supplied, along with results of races and competitions, and a wealth of photographs. At the same time, the book also features women in motor sport – on the track and in the the pits. It also looks back at the 1951 racing season and offers a celebration (not published before) of the 30th anniversary of Jackie Stewart’s first world cahmpionship.

Described by Top Gear Magazine as “The definitive review of the motoring year,” Automobile Year is unique. It covers every aspect of cars and motor sport in the preceding year in fact-filled articles and superb colour photographs. Its publication date of early December, together with its eye-catching cover, colourful content and superb print quality, make it the ideal Christmas gift book for any motoring enthusiast. The annual’s wide scope avoids the single-minded concentration of an increasing number of yearbooks devoted to specialised forms of racing. One copy of Automobile Year can replace four or five other motor sporting annuals, for while it covers Formula 1, the most popular form of racing, in detail, it also included in-depth reports on rallying and other forms of racing. As well as motor sport fans, Automobile Year also caters for the wider interests of those who are fascinated by road cars and the latest products of the world’s motor industry. The major new cars of the year, from family saloons to exotic sports and concept cars, are described and illustrated in large-format pages illustrated by unique photographs. This information, together with expert assessments of the cars and the industry, makes the annual a reference work to be found in the offices of designers, engineers and marketers throughout the world’s motor industry. First and foremost, however, Automobile Year is an enthusiast’s publication, and its development is tailored to fit that market perfectly.
