Impressive wet-weather performance from Davanti at CarFest

29th July 2019

Davanti Tyres’ deliver in all conditions – a point that was proven when the brand returned to Carfest North this year.

As the British weather conspired to deliver some of the wettest possible conditions to Bolesworth Castle in Cheshire, visitors to the Davanti Tyres stand were able to explore the entire range of passenger car, van and all-terrain tyres right until the end of the show.

The extreme rain even failed to put a halt to the Davanti Grand Prix, which saw show visitors given the chance to race to win a set of Davanti tyres.

More than 2,000 people registered to try and win a set of tyres on Davanti’s model race system across the weekend, generating queues at the stand even during the worst downpours.

“This was our second year at CarFest North and it was very different to the first,” said Davanti Tyres Sales Director Sean Maddocks.

“There was a lot of interest in our all-terrain Terratoura tyre – I think some visitors ended the festival wishing they had fitted them already!

“But we also met many existing Davanti customers who told us how impressed they were with our tyres’ performance.

“That was incredibly rewarding. To get a real-world glimpse into the incredible work our network of Davanti dealers is doing to increase the number of Davanti tyres on the road and to have drivers take time to come to our stand to give us positive feedback on them is fantastic!”
