JANE, DO YOU TAKE THIS TWINGO TO BE YOUR LAWFUL WEDDED CAR?

 

Jane Skelton from Willingham has proved her Va Va Voom after winning a fantastic Renault Twingo Dynamique in a competition run by Renault and Yahoo!

Jane, a tutor, was presented with her prize car this week from Ian Davidson, sales manager at local Renault dealer Wests of Cambridge.

The competition was run on the Yahoo! Website on February 29 this year to mark the re-launch of the Renault Twingo and invited participants to find innovative ways of proposing to their men. As is traditional, February 29 is the day when the tables are turned and women propose to men rather than vice versa.

Jane’s proposal put her into the final three and involved a trip to London where she proposed to her partner Tim by enlisting the help of a group of people wearing t-shirts spelling out “Tim, will you marry me?”

Tim of course, said yes and the pair are set to tie the knot late next year when he has completed his MA in historic building conservation.

The couple have known each other for 19 years and have been together for five, so the competition proved to be a catalyst for a wedding proposal

Jane said: “It was surreal. I saw the competition and on the spur of the moment, I thought ‘I’ll do it!” 

“I decided to do something that would have something he could read; a big reveal, as I knew if I said it, I’d verbally crumble.  It worked brilliantly, and he was knocked sideways. It was a very intense moment and worth all of the planning. I didn’t tell a soul about it and he really didn’t have a clue!”

“Then, I was told that I’d made it to the final three and we had a day in London.  It was an emotional day and I spent most of it crying! 

“Then to find out we’d won was amazing. It was so surreal and bizarre!  I keep asking myself if it really happened!  I have memories of the most amazing day and also to have won a brand new Twingo was fabulous, particularly as we’ve always driven around in old bangers.

Ian Davidson, sales manager at Wests Renault, delivered the keys to both Jane and Tim this week. He said: “We had a lot of fun handing the Twingo Dynamique over and wish the couple every happiness in their journey together”.

Henry Currie, from Hylton Cheltenham, said: “We are astounded by the fantastic package that is available for such a small price and we’re certain our customers will be too.

 

“As people are looking for a good deal these days, the Dacia Duster offers a solid vehicle with no frills.  There’s no compromise on build quality or technology, and despite not having launched yet in the UK, Dacia has already won awards for quality and reliability.

 

“Along with its sister car, the Dacia Sandero which is the UK’s most affordable car, priced from just £5,995, the Duster can be reserved with a refundable deposit of £100.”

JOHN SKELLY FISH LTD HOOK THEIR SECOND RENAULT TRAFIC VAN FROM MITCHELLS LOWESTOFT

 

 

  

A local fish business has taken delivery of their second Trafic van from Mitchells Lowestoft after racking up an impressive 271,000 miles.

 

John Skelly Fish Ltd, based in Lowestoft, was established 12 years ago trading all over Norfolk and South Suffolk. For the past seven years, the husband and wife team of John and Jennifer Skelly have been using a Renault Trafic van bought new from Mitchells in 2005. Since then, it’s done about 800 miles a week and now boasts an incredible mileage of more than a quarter of a million – 271,705 to be precise.

 

John, who collected his new, liveried and refrigerated van from Mitchells this week, said: “We have been very impressed with our faithful Renault Trafic van which is a familiar sight on the area’s roads, but it’s time to trade it in for a newer model.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Andy Duffield, sales manager at Mitchells Renault, added: “It’s always a pleasure to deal with a business customer like John who gets such value-for-money out of their vehicle. We’ve been discussing a replacement for a while, and when he told me the mileage of his current van, I had to double check that he wasn’t talking about kilometres!  He has done a fantastic mileage in the van – enough, in fact, to take you around the circumference of the earth more than 10 times. It’s a great tribute to the strength and durability of Renault’s van offering.”

HYLTON CHELTENHAM RENAULT HOSTS ELECTRIFYING DRIVING EVENT

 

HYLTON CHELTENHAM RENAULT HOSTS ELECTRIFYING DRIVING EVENT AT @BRISTOL

 

The @Bristol Science centre played host to a driving event with a difference this weekend when Hylton Cheltenham  were among  Renault dealers showcasing the thrill of electric vehicles.

 

The event was organised as part of Renault’s Z.E. Test Drive Tour 2012 and allowed local motorists to drive the head-turning Twizy, Kangoo Van Z.E. and Fluence Z.E. saloon while admiring the forthcoming ZOE model.

 

Renault’s geodesic dome was a welcome point and allowed visitors to find out more about battery range, charging times, pricing and Plugged-In Places infrastructure.

 

The dome also allowed visitors to create an “alter eco” in a green challenge which showed the impact of switching to an electric vehicle on their wallets and on the environment.

 

Motorists were able to put the range through its paces on a Twizy agility course which showed just how well the Twizy copes with the tight bends and chicanes of the urban environment.

 

Tim Betambeau, Franchise Manager at Hylton Renault Cheltenham and Worcester, said: “We had massive interest in all of the range over the weekend and we were able to answer questions on running costs, the environmental benefits and Renault’s unique battery leasing.”

THE MOST AFFORDABLE CAR IN THE UK IS COMING TO OXFORDSHIRE!

The Dacia Sandero has just created automotive history with a car priced so competitively, from just £5,995, that it’s making people look twice.

 

As part of the Dacia brand, the new Sandero supermini is the UK’s most affordable new car.  The last time a car entered the market at around this price, it was 1989.

 

Ordering for the Dacia Sandero has just opened, hot on the heels of the Sandero’s bigger sibling the Dacia Duster SUV which is available from just £8,995.  Both cars will be delivered in early 2013 from local Dacia dealer Cross Roads.

 

There are three versions of the Dacia Sandero to choose from, starting with the entry-level Access at the incredible price of just £5,995. It has the safety features you’d expect from a car from the Renault stable; ABS with Emergency Brake Assist, ASR traction control, ESC (Electronic Stability Control), driver, passenger and front side airbags and ISOFIX points in both outer rear seats.

 

It comes with a 1.2 16V 75 engine, power assisted steering and a 60/40 split folding rear seat. There’s a practical boot, cloth ‘Element’ upholstery and a smart, modern-look centre console.

 

The mid-level Ambiance includes the above, as well as remote central locking, electric front windows, 2x20W radio CD player with fingertip remote controls, USB and AUX input and Bluetooth connectivity. It also offers chrome touches for the air vent, instrument dial and steering wheel logo surrounds while the range-topping Laureate version offers all of that plus two-tone ‘Atom’ cloth upholstery.

 

The 1.2 16V 75 engine can be upgraded for Ambiance and Laureate versions to a frugal, yet powerful, TCe 90 petrol and dCi 90 diesel engine.

 

Sales manager, Chris Rollason,said: “We are astounded by the fantastic package that is available for such a small price and we’re certain our customers will be too.

 

“As people are looking for a good deal these days, the Dacia Sandero and Duster models offer an extraordinary amount, leading most people to ask ‘how’?  The reason is that Dacia is a no-frills solution to motoring and our models simply contain only the necessary.

 

“There’s no compromise on build quality or technology, and despite not having launched yet in the UK, Dacia has already won awards for quality and reliability.

 

“As a global brand, owned by Renault, it has access to the very best in technology and research and its cars are built to withstand the extremities of climate from Brazil to Russia.  It’s an outstanding package.

 

“It even comes with a 3 years/60,000 miles warranty, with 3 years/60,000 miles free roadside assistance. For peace of mind, 5 year/60,000 miles and 7 year/100,000 miles upgrades are available, costing just £395 and £850.

 

“So whether you’re a parent looking to buy a sturdy, reliable car for a youngster, or you’re a student or simply hard-pressed for cash, come and see us!”

BATEMANS BUILDS RELATIONSHIP WITH 30 RENAULT KANGOO VANS FROM HOLDEN

 

 

 

Construction contractor Batemans Groundworks Limited has taken delivery of a new fleet of 30 Renault Kangoo Maxi Crew vans from Holden Renault in Norwich.

 

The Great Yarmouth-based company provides groundwork services and civil engineering services to the new homes and commercial sector and believes that the time is right to invest in an entire fleet of Kangoo Crew Vans.

 

Jason Ramsey, Commercial Director of Bateman Groundworks Ltd said: “The last four years have been the most difficult of the 15 years we have been trading. However, during this period we have learnt a lot of lessons, and utilised this time to develop a strategic five-year plan for growth. A year in, we are seeing encouraging signs, exceeding planned targets and securing multiple long term roads, sewers and new homes sector contracts, thus installing a greater level of confidence within ourselves and the market itself.

 

“We strongly believe that it is those values which we uphold that have enabled us to remain prominent within the home sector of East Anglia, offering a high standard of work within a safe working environment at best value. It was these same values that we looked for when purchasing our fleet of vehicles, and is why we chose the Kangoo Maxi LL21 D90 Crew Van.”

 

Terry Smith, business manager at Holden Renault in Norwich said: “We’re thrilled to be handing over 30 sets of keys. It’s always a pleasure to present customers with their new Renault vehicles, but this order for 30 Kangoos has proved that local firms are investing in good quality and value-for-money products.

 

“Our customers love the Kangoo Van and its electric counterpart, the Kangoo van Z.E. thanks to a practical cabin, generous payload and frugal engines and we wish Jason and all his colleagues at Bateman Groundworks Ltd many miles of happy motoring.”

A visual press release!  With thanks to Graham Fudger...

SUNLIGHT FUTURE TURNS THE LIGHT ON BRISTOL’S FIRST SOLAR-CHARGED ELECTRIC KANGOO VAN Z.E.

 

Bristol-based renewable energy company Sunlight Future has gone the extra mile for green energy. The company is running the first medium-range electric van in Bristol - and it's charged by solar energy.

 

The Kangoo Van Z.E. was recently purchased from Bristol Renault dealer City Motors, and when charged from traditional energy it produces less than a third of carbon emissions of a diesel equivalent.

 

The Sunlight Future van is charged with renewable energy generated by the solar array on the roof of the Create Centre’s eco-home, where the company is based. Charging the zero-emissions van with renewable energy means that it is effectively carbon-neutral for Sunlight Future to run.

With the transport sector responsible for 27% of all emissions, decarbonised transport will have a massive impact on reducing the UK’s total carbon emissions. Ofgem reports show that the South West has the highest installed capacity of renewable energy generation, the greatest of which comes from domestic solar installations, followed by the commercial sector. As a region, therefore, the South West is well prepared to lead the way in cutting carbon emissions and improving air quality by making the change to electric vehicles powered by renewable energy.

The Sunlight Future electric van, which will be on show at the Renault Electric Vehicle roadshow in Bristol 19-21 October, now serves as a working model for other companies.  It shows how linking renewable energy with electric vehicle infrastructure, even at a grassroots level, can significantly reduce carbon emissions and running costs.

Electric vehicles are exempt from road tax and require little servicing or maintenance. The two main costs are price of the vehicle and battery hire. Powered by renewably sourced electricity, the Sunlight Future electric van is also instantly protected from fuel price rises. Based on current prices, using solar energy for homes, businesses and electric vehicles over the next ten years will be considerably cheaper than relying on traditional energy options.

Director of Sunlight Future Ben Greenland comments:
‘We’re so excited to be able to show people that the technology to combine solar power and electric vehicles is here and it works. Nowadays electric vehicles can deliver on range, performance and efficiency, and ultimately they’ll save you money. We’re delighted to be driving a van that is exempt from tax, great fun to drive and goes at a fraction of the cost of a diesel equivalent because it’s powered by free, clean energy that we’ve generated ourselves.’

 

Nick Rixton from City Motors Renault said: “'We’ve had a lot of interest in the Kangoo Van Z.E. since it went on sale at the end of 2011. It’s just wonderful to see the passion that users have for the Kangoo Van Z.E. but Sunlight Future has really taken this to the next level. By charging it from a renewable source, they’ve shown that it is possible to be green while taking to the road and have recruited many new fans through their enthusiasm.'”

People can visit the van at the Renault ZE roadshow, @Bristol, 19-21 October or visit www.sunlightfuture.co.uk to see a video of it in action.

POETIC JUSTICE FOR GRAVELLS RENAULT CUSTOMER

 

When customers collect their brand new Renault at Gravells, they usually hand over the keys to their traded-in vehicle before driving off.

 

But there was an extra surprise for staff at Kidwelly Renault dealership Gravells when Robert Harley came in to collect his brand new Clio, as he presented them with a poem entitled “Renault Heaven” about his ownership experience.

 

The poem has been published in the local town magazine and will also be sung to the tune of Cwm Rhondda by the Cor Meibion Dyffryn Tywi Choir at a forthcoming concert in the town.

 

Jonathan Gravell from Gravells, who handed over the keys to the Harleys, said: “It is always a pleasure to hand over the keys to a customer, but for someone to be so delighted with their previous Renault, that they put pen to paper and write a poem is a real sign of their love for the car and the Gravells service. Rebecca bought her Clio five years ago and now Robert has joined her replacing the faithful Mégane.  We’re delighted to receive this verse and wish them all the best in their new Clio”

Renault Heaven (to the tune of Cwm Rhondda)

 

Gravells Renault in Kidwelly,

They sell cars that go on and on

Twelve years and a hundred’n sixty thousand

My soft top Mégane should be gone

 

To Renault Heaven, Renault Heaven

That great Car Park in the sky, in the sky,

Where Renaults go to when they die

 

Though the years have taken their toil, just

Reg’lar servicing, change of oil

Have kept my trusty steed on rolling

My suspect driving has not spoiled

 

Renault Heaven, Renault Heaven

That is where my car should be, car should be

Gravells kept her going reverently

 

Tho’ my battered car is past it

Gravells Garage does reveal,

The main thing that is wrong with the car is,

The nut holding on the steering wheel

 

Renault Heaven, Renault Heaven,

Aiming for that further shore, further shore

But the delights of a brand new Clio are in store...
