NEWS FROM RENAULT
For immediate release: Tuesday, 9th August 2011
Renault dealer Wellington Motors is gearing up for a hot summer showcase of its cars with fantastic savings and a big dose of Va Va Voom in the run-up to September’s plate change.
September 1st sees the very first “61” plate cars heading out onto the region’s roads and Renault has extra Va Va Voom thanks to a number of fabulous competitions.
There’s the chance to win VIP tickets to one of nine concerts on Rihanna’s “Loud Tour powered by Renault Va Va Voom” allowing fans (over the age of 18) to get the very best seats in the house.
Local motorists could also win tickets and merchandise signed by Rihanna by test driving any new Renault car from Wellington Motors where they’ll get a scratchcard. Each one has a unique code which could win a great prize when entered into www.rewardsfromrenault.co.uk
As if that weren’t enough, from the 1st September for two weeks, there’s a Va Va Voom voucher that can be downloaded from www.vavavoom.co.uk which gives an additional £200 off the price of a Clio or Mégane (excluding Pzaz).
No need to worry if you’re not a Rihanna fan as Renault’s plate change has something to suit everyone, starting with fantastic customer savings on the Twingo Pzaz 1.2 16V 75 which comes with 4x20W RDS CD MP3 audio system and electric windows, all for £6,795 - a massive £1,000 saving. There’s also the option of paying for three years’ servicing upfront for just £199.
The limited edition Pzaz range also extends to the Clio and Mégane ranges, with the Clio Pzaz three-door boasting 4x20W CD MP3 player with fingertip control and AUX input and front electric windows, available for just £7,995 – again a saving of £1,000.
The Mégane Hatch Pzaz 1.6 100 comes with 15” ‘Sequence’ wheel trims, 4x 15W radio CD MP3 player with AUX input, ESC (Electronic Stability Control) and is now available with a massive saving of £1,600, making it just £9,995.
For those who want a slice of Renault’s impressive sporting heritage, the Renaultsport range comes with added Va Va Voom. Pop superstar Rihanna has been heading the latest craze, following Thierry Henry and Nicole and Papa, by appearing in Renault’s latest Clio advertising campaign, this time for the Renaultsport 200.
The hot Clio is just one of Renault’s current line-up of hot hatches and takes its place alongside the Twingo Renaultsport 133 and the Mégane Renaultsport models. The Renaultsport range has a huge and loyal fanbase in the Somerset area, and its supporters recently had something to celebrate when the limited edition Mégane Renaultsport 265 demolished the current track record for a front-wheel-drive production car at the Nürburgring’s Nordschleife circuit in Germany.
For those who want the performance of a Renaultsport but on a lower budget, there are new Gordini versions of Twingo, Clio and Wind Roadster. The famous Gordini blue and white stripes reflect Renault’s proud racing heritage and are now available from just £11,600.
Both are available with a 61 plate, with the Renault Wind Roadster coupe-roadster currently enjoying a price reduction of up to £2,215. The entry-level version costs just £12,995 and includes an innovative roof that rotates closed in only 12 seconds. Not only that, but when the roof is down, thanks to its clever design, the amount of storage space is exactly the same as when the roof is open!
With new taxation rewarding environmentally-conscious drivers, Renault also has the answer for anyone keeping an eye on their wallets as well wanting to reduce their carbon footprint.
Intelligent technology on the Scénic 1.6 dCi 130hp means that the family car emits just 115g/km CO2, together with a fuel-sipping 64.2 mpg. This is thanks to Renault’s new stop and start system as standard, a system which turns the engine off when you don’t need it – such as at traffic lights. Though it turns the engine off, saving you fuel, other functions such as your stereo and air conditioning cleverly stay on.
Likewise, the Clio ‘Eco’ 94g is Renault’s least polluting production diesel car, the UK’s cheapest sub-100 gram car, is capable of achieving an impressive massive 78.4mpg on the combined cycle. It qualifies for zero London Congestion Charge, Vehicle Excise Duty, and for business customers, 100% capital write-down allowance and a benefit-in-kind rating of just 13%.
There’s something for everyone, be it cars or vans, as Renault has also taken the hard work out of time on the road with the new Master Van, Trafic and Kangoo, not to mention the fully-electric Kangoo Van Z.E. (Zero Emission in use) in October.
Michael Finn, Group Managing Director at Wellington Motors, said: “We know that there are lots of Rihanna fans in Wellington who could win some great prizes with us over the plate change! Local motorists really have plenty of choice when it comes to choosing a new car or van from us. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re tempted by the chic styling, the safety of our cars or the spectacular offers that are available at the moment. Come and see us to put the range to the test.”
