Agnews SEAT has been announced as the official car supplier to this year’s Metzeler Ulster Grand Prix.

The car dealership, based on the Boucher Road, will supply safety cars for marshals and officials at “the world’s fastest road race” which will take place at Dundrod from the 11th – 16th August.

Glenn Rankin, Sales Support for Agnews SEAT said: “With world class racing at our back door this was the perfect opportunity to support a historic local event.

“As the largest SEAT dealer in Northern Ireland the brand is growing from strength-to-strength and we will have our latest models on track over the race week for all to see. We are delighted to lend our support.”

Noel Johnston, Clerk of the Course at the Metzeler Ulster Grand Prix said: “We are really grateful for the support from Agnew SEAT.

“My fellow officials and myself will be covering a lot of miles in the build up to and during bike week, so it helps to have a reliable, eye-catching vehicle on hand. I’m certainly excited to get behind the wheel of mine.”
