Welcome

Welcome to Autocade World. We created this site to give back to the customers who took a chance on us, the first to support our yearbooks in 2024 and 2025. We wanted to provide a place where people doing research can get an online membership and access to digital versions of the yearbooks. And we wanted to have a great community of car enthusiasts who can connect in a safe space.

We ask customers to register because when you bought your books, this site didn’t exist, so we haven’t any right to add you without your consent. We have to add you manually, so please contact us and we’ll make sure you get a year’s bronze access to the members’ content for free. We’ll do this within 24 hours, since we’re HQed in New Zealand, and some requests will come through overnight for us.

Through the year, we’ll add other motoring content here that’s exclusively for members. Anyone who wishes to partner with us on providing specials for Autocade World members, please reach out.

Another idea we have is to link up fellow independent publishers with motoring books, and you can go from here to their sites and order directly.

We’ll probably cease posting to Facebook and build our community here. We’re 600-strong on Facebook, and here we can keep it a fun, enjoyable group, where racism, homophobia, transphobia and other prejudices are unwelcome.

As a company policy, we do not track. You’re never going to see us add you to a Big Tech platform for advertising and tracking.

We’re starting small, as we did with the original Autocade website in 2008 (12 entries!) and building up gradually. We look forward to being with you on this journey.
