YOUR INVITATION TO ENTER THE
MITSUBISHI MOTORS UK GOLDEN JUBILEE TOUR
Saturday 21st September 2024
As part of a year of celebrations marking the 50th anniversary of Mitsubishi Motors in the UK, we have pleasure in inviting owners of officially imported Mitsubishi cars that have been supplied via the UK dealer network, to apply to join us for a truly memorable day of Mitsubishi motoring and fellowship.
The Mitsubishi Motors UK Golden Jubilee Tour will take place on Saturday 21st September and feature 50 vehicles manufactured between 1974 and the present day.
This prestigious event follows in the footsteps of the two previous vehicle tours organised by the company: the 40th Anniversary Tour held in 2014 and the Centenary Tour of 2017 that celebrated 100 years of the Mitsubishi Motors Corporation. Both were heralded as a great success and enjoyed by all - so-much-so, they are still being talked about today!
What’s in store for the Golden Jubilee Tour:
Entrants will assemble at Mitsubishi Motors UK headquarters at Watermoor Point in Cirencester for a briefing and breakfast, before embarking on a route of just over 100 miles through the beautiful Cotswold countryside and visiting many of the region’s enchanting villages. Stopping at a series of check points located at places of interest, the tour will conclude at Badminton House.
Famous for its International Horse Trials that was sponsored by Mitsubishi Motors UK for 25 years consecutively, entrants will have the opportunity to drive through the estate’s impressive grounds before gathering at the finish for refreshments and a prizegiving ceremony, when owners of the winning cars in each category will be presented with an award.
All entrants will receive a commemorative finishers’ award. An official photographer will be there to capture the occasion. There will also be an award for the ‘best-dressed’ crew, with drivers and passengers encouraged to wear outfits commensurate to the period of their car.
Application for entry:
Entry applications are now open to owners of UK-specification Mitsubishi cars, LCVs, SUVs and 4x4s only.
Each application will be assessed for suitability and relevance, in keeping with the spirit of the event and criteria of entry.
Successful entries will be charged £50 per car and two people.
Additional passengers will be permitted for an additional fee of £25
The closing date for entries is 31st July 2024.
