The Picanto pictured here will be up for grabs, the competition is simple the ball has to be kicked into the boot and must remain if it does the car is yours!
(Terms and conditions apply, no professional footballers etc)
The Picanto beautifully finished in white with a price tag of £5,995 comes complete with 3 year warranty
In a practice run last week chairman elect Dean Hoyle lofted his kick into the boot only to see it bounce out!!!
Okay for those of you lucky enough to have heard our “ Longley Park KIA Car of the Week” radio commercials we admit they may not be the slickest ad on the airwaves but it works for us. We sold 7 Picanto models in the first 10 days of the radio campaign.
A lot of ads are very corporate and uniformed but not ours. I don’t think our local radio station were over keen on it or my delivery. But it stands out and that’s what we wanted. The latest ad can be heard on Home 107.9 fm with grating frequency.
The pictures below were taken when making the ad at Absolute Commercial Productions. They specialise in the motor industry and produce hundreds of radio commercials for businesses up and down the country. Based here in Paddock, Huddersfield, Alex and his team at Absolute make radio advertising surprisingly affordable and a lot of fun. If you want to get on air give Alex Mullen a call on 01484 532677.
The New Great Britain Rugby League Coach Tony Smith, fresh from his Grand Final success with the Leeds Rhinos and 1st Test victory over New Zealand with Great Britain is pictured picking up his new Sorento Diesel Automatic.
Australian Tony has run a Kia Sorento for the last 4 years and Longley Park Motors are delighted to continue the association. He certainly knows all about winning teams!

Not many people can say their first car was a brand new motor with no miles on the clock. But student Ross Allen from Huddersfield can - after he triumphed in the Examiner’s Win A Kia Picanto competition.
Ross 19 won the brand new £6,000 car donated by local Kia dealership Longley Park Motors in a grand final contest at the Kingsgate shopping centre on Saturday the 13th October.He was one of ten finalists who had to try and collect the most golden tickets from the Crystal Maze type booth. Each contestant had 30 seconds in the booth to catch the blowing tickets watched by supporters and curious shoppers. Ross managed to collect 40 tickets making him the winner.
A delighted Ross plans to take his brand new Diamond Blue metallic Picanto back to Manchester University where he is in his second year of a chemistry degree.He said “I didn’t have a plan for winning I just went there and tried to grab as many tickets as I could. I thought it would be a good idea to enter I’m really glad I did ”
He was presented with the keys to his new car by John Waite, Dealer Principal of Longley Park Kia . “ The competition has given us six weeks of high profile publicity for our Kia range and the Picanto in particular. It can be no coincidence that in the last week alone we have sold 7 new Picanto models. We have great offers right now and the competition has done a great service to get Longley Park Motors noticed by local drivers”
