Mini Competition Winner at Watling Tyres Redhill with Hankook

Earlier this month, we were thrilled to see one of our customers surprised by winning a brand new MINI – it’s fair to say, they were pretty astonished! Fiona came to pick up the car from our Watling Tyres Redhill garage.

Representing Watling Tyres was General Manager, Patrick Laming (3rd right), Depot Manager Mark Jarvis (2nd right) and Managing Director Roger Fury (1st right).}

Hankook, our tyre partners, had a big competition in place, which meant that anyone who bought two or more Hankook car, SUV or 4×4 tyres would be automatically entered into a prize draw.

There were several big prizes up for grabs, but the top prize was a brand new top of the range MINI John Cooper Works 3-door hatch.

During the promotional period, any customer who bought two or more types at a Hankook-approved dealer was entered into a draw. Then, after the competition closed, the winner was randomly selected from the list of names.

When the winner was announced, we were delighted to see that it was one of our Redhill customers who won the top prize.

Fiona Finch bought two Hankook tyres from our Redhill depot. Then, a few weeks later, she was told that she was the lucky winner of a new car.

After she was told the big news, Fiona said:

“I went to my local Watling Tyres depot due to concerns about the tread left in two of my tyres and, as I had heard the Hankook advert on the radio and on Facebook, and after consulting with the Watling staff, I was recommended Hankook.

“I entered the competition but really didn’t expect to win even the vouchers, let alone the MINI. When I received the call to say I had won, I was in total shock and couldn’t believe this had happened to me. I am so grateful to Hankook for the prize and for Watling Tyres for recommending them to me.”

Patrick Laming, our General Manager, expressed his delight at having one of Watling Tyres’ customers winning the top prize:

“It was fantastic to hear that one of our customers had won the top prize in the Hankook Tyres prize draw. Fiona popped into our garage in Redhill, Surrey, and enquired about some new tyres, she was concerned her tyre tread was too low. After speaking with our team, we recommended Hankook tyres. She purchased two tyres for her car and then entered into the prize draw.

“We were delighted to hear that Fiona had won the brand-new MINI John Cooper Works 3-door hatch, and that we could be part of the presentation alongside Hankook Tyre UK. We hope that Fiona enjoys her brand new MINI! Many thanks to Hankook for offering such a great competition.”
