Dealers have driving day with Close

As part of the celebrations for its 13th year in business, Close Motor Finance took 13 of its dealers from Southern Britain for a driving experience day at Brands Hatch on 25 April. The places were won in an online prize draw launched to the industry in February. Champagne and cash prizes have also been awarded.

On the day, Dealers and hosts from Close were treated to full hospitality and sped around the circuit at Brands Hatch in BMW M3s and Audi-powered single seaters. Off-circuit activities included some very competitive karting and Caterham 7 action, as well as 4x4s and rally cars.

The winner the Driver of the Day trophy was Trevor Gedge of JS Gedge Motorcycles, Sussex, who had “a thoroughly enjoyable day”.

The second track day will take place during May at Oulton Park with another 13 lucky motorcycle dealers, this time from the North.
