Mr.Omer Heikal is the grand-prize winner of the Ford ‘Test-Drive a 2006 Ford Focus & Win’ promotion run by Al Tayer Motors - the Ford, Lincoln and Mercury dealers in Dubai and the Northern Emirates, and Premier Motors in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. He recently received his VIP Mashreq Bank MasterCard with AED10,000 credit, during a special ceremony held at Al Tayer Motors.
The promotion also offered consumers taking the 2006 Focus for a test-drive instant prizes, and the chance to win one of five iPod music systems with the iTrip feature.
“Driving the all-new Focus was such a rewarding experience," said Mr. Heikal "In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I did not want to leave the car. You can imagine what it felt like to know that I had also won AED10,000."
Hussein Murad, Sales & Marketing director of Ford Middle East, said: “We are pleased to see that the promotion was well received by our consumers. Ford is committed to rewarding customers, and our latest promotion does just that.”
After seven years and four million sales worldwide, the Ford Focus again exceeds expectations in 2006for the 2006 model. The all-new model has a distinctive, coupe-style silhouette, and the angle of the windscreen and the sporty rear end mark it out from its competition in the crowded C-segment. It has
the widest body in its class, and for the first time in a Ford Focus, the four-speed Durashift automatic gear transmission has a manual up/down sequence‘tiptronic’ feature.
Murad Andrew Humberstone, General Manager, Al Tayer Motors said: "The all-new Ford Focus has been developed to satisfy young, trendy and sophisticated people. Young people are looking for a smart buy that has great features and image at an affordable price. The all-new Ford Focus has it all - quality, safety, exceptional ride and handling, and no compromise when it comes to styling."
In the UAE, the Focus family includes four-door sedan and five-door saloon hatchback and station wagon models in four trim levels: Ambiente, Trend, Sport and Ghia. Power is stems from a 1.6-litre Duratec, 119 horsepower engine, with a choice of two Durashift transmissions – five-speed manual and four-speed automatic Durashift with a manual +/- sequence.
