It's show time in the New Forest

3:10pm Friday 24th July 2009 in New Forest By Glynn Williams

NEXT WEEK’S New Forest and Hampshire County Show has another fantastic line-up of vehicles from a wide range of dealers.

Whether you are looking for a new van or something sportier you will find it here in the show running from Tuesday to Thursday.

BMW has two delights for the motoring enthusiast to view – the return of the classic roadster the BMW Z4 offering all the driving pleasure of a roadster but with particular refinements and great flair – and the new Mini Convertible offering this unique rendition of motoring freedom in style.

Lexus Poole and Lexus Hedge End are offering the next generation Lexus hybrid drive in the RX 450h giving all-round advantage.

This is the first in a series introducing key features of the new luxury crossover; the full hybrid powertrain that delivers an unprecedented combination of fuel economy, low emissions and performance.

Local dealership Everton Garage will be bringing their range of Hyundais. Hyundai’s i10 is already a sell-out success, but that hasn’t stopped the company introducing a new engine choice to make the city car even more competitive.

Building on the success of the recently launched Hyundai i20 five-door, the new bodystyle will broaden the i20’s appeal to the fastest-growing sector of the car market in Europe.

The i30 is first of a new breed of models specifically designed and developed for Europe.

Land Rover will be including a 1998 S Reg. Land Rover 90 in their display. This is unique as it has been converted into a soft top and resprayed Tangiers Orange, the colour used on the Land Rover G4 expeditions and includes various other modifications including Cobra racing seats, a racing steering wheel and jackable side sills. This car was recently used in a photoshoot for Vogue.

Volvo will be bringing almost their entire range of cars to this year’s New Forest Show – a total of eight stunning models. These include the award-winning XC60 crossover, the striking C70 Ice White coupe/convertible and the What Car? Green Car of the Year the Volvo S40 1.6D DRIVe with Start/Stop.

There are other franchises present too, so if you are looking for a new vehicle then the New Forest & Hampshire County Show cannot be missed.
