SPECIAL EVENT (COULSDON, SURREY) - AUTO ITALIA NOW TO BE PUBLISHED BY CHPUBLICATIONS

Leading Italian car magazine, 'Auto Italia', has moved and is now published by CHPublications Ltd.

The change of ownership occurred earlier this month and CHP will be publishing issue 142, on sale 28 February.

CHP already publishes '911 & Porsche World', 'Japanese Performance', 'Ultra VW', 'Performance Tuner' and 'American Car World'.

"We think this magazine fits perfectly in the CHP portfolio", says publisher, Nigel Fryatt.

"It's a magazine that we have admired and we think there is a lot we can add to the product to expand its readership, both in the UK and abroad. While it's certainly tough on the newsstands at the moment, we think 'Auto Italia' brings additional strengths to CHP and we are looking forward to a busy 2008."

CHPublications Ltd was started back in 1990, when Clive Househam published the first issue of '911 & Porsche World'. The company is based in Coulsdon, Surrey.
