Polaris Dealer Conference 2009
8/9th December 2009

APVS were nominated for 'Best New Dealer of the Year 2009 - South' in our first year as a Polaris Dealer. We came runner up to a dealer who had been selling quads and ATVs for just over a year compared to our six months... so fingers crossed we shall walk away with the prestigious title next year.

We also ended our year in blinding style smashing our sales target by nearly 30%!

 

Weston Beach Race 2009
9, 10 & 11 October 2009

APVS staff helped man the Polaris stand at the Weston Beach Race this year. The three day event was overshadowed slightly by a horrific accident at the start of the motorcycle race on the Sunday but the two days prior to that were very successful for Polaris.

Polaris staged a demonstration of the RZR 800 on the Friday afternoon with professional drivers whizzing around the track (pictured below).

The Polaris two man team achieved first place in the quad race on the Saturday and came home with a trophy!

APVS' own Stuart Smith was then selected to demonstrate the capabilities of the RZR on the demo track on the Sunday.

APVS hope to enter a rider of our own next year. Watch this space!

Great Gloucestershire Raft Regatta

This year's Great Gloucestershire Raft Regatta went ahead despite the dreadful weather and thanks to the efforts of various Rotary Clubs within the Gloucestershire area. Paul rowed for his club, Severn Vale Rotary in their team 'Double 0 Severn' who achieved the lap record in their heat and came runners up in the final! Well done to all.

Frampton Country Fair - September 2008
15 September 2008

It was a bit misty but the rain held off and we had a busy day at this year's Frampton Country Fair. We displayed 11 vehicles in total, a diverse mix of both cars and commercials offering something for everyone including a Smart car, a tipper truck and a fridge van... that did a great job keeping the drinks cool!

Thanks to Jan Whitchurch, Liz and Sean Hibbs, Dean and Debbie Webb, Emily and Joe, Alex Bishop and Andy and Yvonne Butland for all their help both setting up and on the day.

Frampton on Severn Country Fair
September 2007

Our first official promotional event took place at the Frampton Country Fair in September, where we showcased our fleet and gave visitors to our stand information on the services we have to offer and the opportunity to enter into a free prize draw to win a junior moto-x bike.  Special thanks to Lorna & Cam Thomas and Liz & Sean Hibbs for their help on the day. The event was a complete success and we will be exhibiting again in 2008! (See images opposite taken on the day) 

The prize draw winner was Callum Clements of Hardwicke, who was presented with the bike by A P Vehicle Solutions’ proprietor Paul Butland, a couple of weeks later.  The presentation was captured by a photographer from The Citizen newspaper and an article appeared in the Friday 28 September edition.
