Details of Company Car in Action 2008, one of the most important events in fleet managers’ diaries have been announced.

The unique three-day happening – the world’s largest drive and decide event – will return to Millbrook Proving Ground on June 17, 18 and 19 next year and promises to be bigger and better than ever.

At the 2007 event, thousands of fleet managers, finance managers, purchasing executives, HR managers and senior managers of major companies signed up for the chance to test vehicles at the top-secret testing venue normally reserved for manufacturers who are putting vehicles through rigorous tests before they are launched to the public.

Already detailed feedback from those delegates is helping with work to implement new ideas for the key dates in the summer.

If you are a fleet decision-maker and you already receive Fleet News, then you automatically qualify for a free driving pass.

Drivers will be able to use circuits designed for testing and which are normally closed to the public.

They can compare a wide range of models back-to-back and discuss their views with experts from each manufacturer.

Fleet News has organised full access to all the tracks at the venue, including the high-speed bowl and handling track, allowing fleet managers to make meaningful back-to-back comparisons of the full range of cars available.

In addition, there will be a remodelled exhibition area, providing plenty of ideas for making improvements to fleet operations, cutting accidents and reducing emissions.

There will also be free advice with an expert helpdesk open throughout the day.
