for immediate release The
end of July saw a V24 shipped off to Madrid to be tested by Formula 1 driver Jenson
Button. The European press event, coordinated by Jardine Communications, was a
huge success with the V24 taking centre stage for two days of test drives on a
stunning lake. Tom Powell and Pete Little took 40 journalists from all over
Europe out in the V24 and were thrilled with the response they received. On day
two it was over to Jenson and they had a hard time getting him out of the boat
such was his enthusiasm! 'I love things to do with water, because I spend
so much time on the water getting away from city life and all the noise. I spend
a lot of time on boats anyway, so that (the V24) was probably the most fun thing
for me,' he commented on the event. And the V24? 'The boat is so stable
in the water, you can really throw it about and it's a really sexy bit of kit,
with a fantastic noise!' In fact, since then Jenson has had the chance to
drive a V24 in the UK when we took him out for test day in the Solent - and he
still came back with the biggest smile on his face!
What more can you say?
