HONDA CELEBRATES TYPE R AT SILVERSTONE

• Type R owners celebration for Red H-badged cars
• Offer launched for new Type R buyers with savings of up to £2,230
• End of current Civic Type R sales in the UK

Honda is bringing together fans of its high performance Type R cars at a special event at Silverstone in August (21st/22nd).

The celebration of the famous 'Red H' badge coincides with the latest rounds of the British Touring Car Championship, featuring Matt Neal and Gordon Shedden in the Honda Racing Team. As well as watching the thrilling tin top racing on the Northamptonshire circuit, enthusiasts from the biggest Honda owners' clubs in the UK will get the chance to experience the track for themselves in a 'Lap of Honour' to commemorate the Type R. An exclusive Type R Only Car Park will also be available for those Honda drivers attending the event, and each attendee will be able to enjoy Honda’s ‘Dreamfields’ hospitality throughout the day.

The celebration at Silverstone also marks the news that UK sales of the current Civic Type R are drawing to a close. Production of the hot hatch for the UK market will end in October 2010, with sales ending during December, due to forthcoming Euro V emissions regulations.

To celebrate this we are holding an event at round 7 of the British Touring Car Championship, Silverstone on Sunday 22 August. The event is called 'Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship in Association with Honda Type R Celebration'.

We would like you to run a competition that will gives our members the opportunity to bring their Type R to the BTCC at Silverstone on Sunday 22nd August, to take part in a special 'Lap of Honour' to celebrate the end of production of the Type R in the UK.

We have 10 places for our club and each of those 10 can bring a guest each. Not only will winners get to do a lap of honour in their Type R but will also get to park in an exclusive Type R only car park. Refreshments will be available for winners throughout the day.

Winners will be drawn and notified on Friday 13 August. Tickets will be sent out by special delivery on Monday 16 August.

I think it's important to say only those NOT attending Dreamfields can enter.
Obviously we would like to give as many people as possible exposure to the event and Dreamfields guests will already have entry tickets etc.

Also as a result of the end of production Honda are offering some large savings that can be had on the end of line models. Details of which are below.

Good stuff. Yeah I know, its admittance that EU Directive V has killed it off. :bigcry: :bad-words:
