Patrick McElligott, Managing Director, McElligott’s Tralee noted the longstanding association with Listowel Race Company through their many years of race sponsorship when he officially announced the new McElligott’s Honda Ladies Day
“Listowel Races success is based on a very hard working committee whose dedication has seen continuous growth and allowed this meeting to evolve and become one of the leading sporting and social events on the calendar in Ireland today. It is only right that McElligott’s should be a part of this massive event, and we are delighted to sponsor the McElligott’s Honda Ladies Day at Listowel Races on Friday 18 September.”
“It is ideal timing for us, as it coincides with the launch of the all new Honda Jazz and the very fashionable and long awaited new Honda HR-V. These two models will be significant players in their respective markets and we already have a lot of pre-launch interest.”
These two models join the already very popular Civic and CR-V models, with the CR-V available with a nine speed auto from July 1st for the 152 plate. All Hondas are now available with the award-winning i-DTEC diesel engines, which set the bench mark for power and economy in their competitive segments.
