Independent garages have the chance of enjoying a VIP day out at one of the UK’s premier motorsport events.

Members of NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd’s BoxClever independent garage scheme are being given the opportunity to attend this year’s prestigious Goodwood Festival of Speed which is being held on June 28-July 1.

The leading supplier of OE spark plugs, glow plugs and NTK sensors is running a competition for customers to enjoy a fantastic day out at the motorsport extravaganza on the final day of the event on Sunday, July 1.

VIP tickets are on offer for BoxClever members who successfully answer three questions about the Goodwood Festival of Speed on the company’s website – www.ngkntk.co.uk – and have the good fortune of their entries being picked out of the hat.

NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd supplies its racing spark plugs for Vodafone McLaren Mercedes’ new MP4-27 car and the event will see an appearance by the team’s two British Formula One World Champions Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton.

The Vodafone McLaren Mercedes F1 team is one of seven current Grand Prix teams expected to attend the Festival this summer. These will also include the Red Bull Racing team, in action with reigning F1 World Champion Sebastian Vettel and team-mate Mark Webber.

Marketing Manager Gerard Irving said: “Our BoxClever garage members are being given the opportunity to win VIP tickets for a fantastic day out at what is acclaimed as being Britain’s premier motorsport event.

“As a company, NGK will be exhibiting at The Festival of Speed, an event which attracts many of the world’s leading vehicle manufacturers, plus some of the biggest names in World motorsport, both past and present, including NGK-sponsored McLaren’s two F1 World Champions.”

NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd’s BoxClever loyalty scheme has been a huge success since being launched eight years ago with thousands of UK independent garages having registered, all receiving points they can then redeem for prizes on the return of their purchased NGK product boxes.
