Regular readers of our blog will be well aware of our sponsorship of local Motocross rider, Mark Osborne. The photo shoot in 2013 was one of our best read posts and the images really were fantastic (even if it did mean digging around next to the dual carriageway for loose grass!) and we're delighted to be supporting him again for the 2014 season.

A lucky winner has picked up the keys to a brand new Mitsubishi Mirage for a year from us!
An 'ecstatic' Jackie McKeown drove away in the fantastic new super-mini, after being entered into the prize draw for taking the car for a test drive. Mrs McKeown- who has been visiting the showroom for several years with her Mitsubishi Colt- took a liking to the Mirage and took it for a spin when she brought her current vehicle in for its annual service.
She was not the only one! The competition proved very popular, especially considering the prize on offer was a red Mirage 3 (the highest available specification) with a vast specification- including everything from climate controlled air conditioning and keyless operation with start/stop button to front and rear parking sensors, automatic lights and rain sensors.
Wesley from our Sales Team was delighted to be able to call Mrs McKeown the good news just after Christmas and she was clearly delighted! She said:
"I am absolutely ecstatic. When Wesley rang me to tell me I had won, I felt sure there must be some kind of catch- but there isn't! I had to come and see the car to prove to myself that it would be mine for a year."
And we couldn't think of a better winner! We are assured the 4 door will be very handy for the family as Mrs McKeown has a five-month old grandson to transport on occasion and hearing that it is the "best car she's ever driven" makes it all the better.
