Simon Howard, publishing director, says: "These audits show we have extended our leadership in both fleet and automotive markets. We continue to invest heavily in delivering the highest-quality circulation for our clients.

"Both markets have a high turnover of staff, so we re-register our reader base constantly to keep up-to-date. This ensures our client’s messages are very well targeted to current key decision-makers in the right job roles."
