NO JOKE……

Car Dealer and Charity in the same sentence!

Comic Relief tops £1000 at Longley Park KIA.

During February and March 2009 Longley Park Motors and customers through various activities have raised and donated £1000 to the charity “Comic Relief”. Various RED NOSE activities were undertaken, which included competitions, charity car wash and a £700 donation from the company itself.

Kia Motors is the first car manufacturer to be a supporting partner to Comic Relief. Kevin Cahill CEO of the Red Nose Charity has stated that every penny raised by Longley Park Motors will help transform people’s lives across the UK and Africa

Talking about the fundraising activities At Longley Park, John Waite Managing Director of the Paddock based Kia Dealer commented.

“We have had a plenty of interest and support in fundraising from existing customers and also lots of showroom activity with the launch of the All New KIA Soul. Recent news over the last 6 months has made it difficult to remain truly confident so it is remarkable that business and fundraising has remained so positive. We have done what we can to help and really hope that this money will make a difference to the people who really need it”

John reports that despite the continuing economic gloom business at Longley Park Motors is brisk “Sales of NEW KIA CARS in Huddersfield, particularly in January and March have been very good, better than 2008 and because we specialise in the more budget conscious sector of the NEW and USED car market, means the outlook for 2009 is very positive”

This is the first event of its kind the dealership has been associated with in its 28 year history.

"So a big thank you to all you kind spirited customers who have made this possible"

The Making of 'That Ad'

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.

Student from Huddersfield wins brand new Kia Picanto

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”

Everyone’s a winner!

Kia Cee'd winner at Longley Park Motors

Mr Adam Roe from Keighley West Yorkshire is the proud recipient of a brand new Kia cee’d, after winning a 12 month long test drive. He collected his new car from Longley Park Motors at Paddock Huddersfield today 06/08/2007.

Kia Motors UK has been running a three day cee’d test drive initiative, and is giving 100 of the testers the opportunity to continue their test drives for a year. So far 50 winners have been announced and a further 50 will be selected at the end of August.

John Waite Dealer Principal at Longley Park KIA Huddersfield said: “The three day test drive has been a fantastic way to introduce motorists to the KIA brand, with 7 new models to choose from we have something for every driver to sample. Interest in our range is at an all time high with the amazing new cee’d with a 7 year warranty. Customers have been making sure they have read it correctly! We can assure them that cee’d does have a 7year warranty!” All winners will receive a 1.6 LS petrol cee’d with a retail value of £14,005. This top of the range cee’d comes with 16” alloy wheels, climate control and MP3 compatibility; along with a whole host of safety features including twin front, side and rear curtain airbags and speed sensing auto door locking.

Kia is very proud of the cee’d and is continuing to show this by extending the cee’d family with two new members the cee’d sw, to be launched in September, and the three door pro_cee’d, set to be launched early next year. Being the first Kia that is built in Europe, for the European market, the cee’d marks an extraordinary turning point for Kia and wanted to promote its new cars to consumers who wouldn’t ordinarily consider the brand.
