‘Hairy Strikers’ hit the garage

28 March 2013  

AN UNLIKELY alliance between Unipart Car Care Centres and Sky Sports has been formed as part of a new marketing ploy.

UCCC has created the ‘You’ll Find Us Better’ campaign message, created to raise the profile of the garage network among motorists to drive in more business. A number of events have been planned to bring football fans through the network’s shutter doors.

In the photo, at each end of the row, are ‘Hairy Strikers’ from Soccer AM David Morgan and James Long. In the centre of the pic are veteran footballers Paul Merson of Arsenal and Matt Le Tissier of Southampton. Sandwiched between them are technicians Freddy Ash from Unipart Wiltown Garage Ltd in Langport, Somerset and Mark Gibson from Central Motors in Letham, Angus.

Technician Freddy Ash said: “It was a great day meeting them all and I think the promotion coupled with the videos on the website will do well at driving extra business into the workshop”.
