In 2017 Manifest put together a classic car rally for the Figaro Owners Club to showcase The Yorkshire Dales to its members across the globe. We promoted the rally to club owners, attracting visitors from across Europe and the UK, many of whom had never visited Yorkshire before. The rally booked up in a record time, also attracting the largest number of rally attendees in the club’s history with 60 cars taking part.
All rally attendees received a goody bag featuring gifts and promotional materials which we sourced from our contacts; Yorkshire Tea, Welcome to Yorkshire, Yorkshire Life, The Dalesman, Aspire, and Keelham Farm Shop among many others.
The 56 page rally guide booklet we produced championed the Dales – https://indd.adobe.com/view/d15148ea-17ba-49c7-af67-2ab910a630e5 and was received with much acclaim. As was the video of the rally we commissioned and briefed for the club website.
Later that year, the rally was submitted by the club in the Best Rally category at the national Classic Car Show. We were thrilled to attend the award ceremony at the NEC, where we clinched the award, beating all the other classic car clubs in the country, including the Sunbeam Tigers epic rally to California – https://www.figaroownersclub.com/yorkshire-figaro-rally-wins-nec-classic-car-show-award/
