Alcar Comp Blog

Bertone. Giugiaro. Pininfarina… Some of the greatest automotive design names of all time. Their masterful strokes have left an indelible imprint on automotive culture, adding style and passion to the humble motor car. But now there’s a new name to add to that list.. Yours!

Yes indeed, the next big thing in cutting-edge automotive design could be you. Although we’re not offering you your own studio in Turin or anything like that, we are offering you the chance to see your vision made in a production reality by joining in our wheel design comp.

Friday the 23rd is the closing date, so there are literally just hours left to put the finishing touches to your masterpiece. The lucky winner will not only have their wheel lovingly crafted to their exact specification, before a full set is delivered to their door…but you’ll also get to join us as VIP guests at the World-famous Ultimate Street Car show at Santa Pod between the 6th and 8th of August. And that’s worth entering for on its own!

So what are you waiting for? Fame and legendary status awaits you – along with the enviable chance to roll around on a totally unique set of custom rims. The clock is ticking.. so get clicking (link)

The Dotz Lottery. Have You Got The Balls For It?

When it comes to gambling, the Lottery doesn’t usually come to the front of your mind in terms of the most glamorous of activities. Sure, scooping several million squids is pretty cool. Yeah, we all love the end results, but compared to say betting the house at Monte Carlo – or risking it all on ‘black’ at the Bellagio, watching a permatanned Dale Winton poncing around in front of a giant bubble gum machine doesn’t really do it for us.

Modified Nationals.. It’s What Bank Holidays Were Made For…

Aaah, the fabled second May Bank Holiday weekend. Question is, what are you gonna do? There’s a trip out to Skeg.. A couple of pints in an anonymous boozer with some buddies – or, if you have even an ounce of petrol in your veins, you should get you, your mates and your motors down to the Modified Nationals over the weeeeeeeeeeekend of the 28th to 30th of May. Believe me, it’s this last option that ticks all the boxes. Stick it in your phone now. Peterborough Showground. Miss it.. Miss out..

Autosalon VERT

Green was the dominating colour at the Autosalon in Geneva: hybrid-modells, electric engines and compact cars were all over the fair in Western Switzerland. All of that gathered in the “Pavillon Vert”. On top of that, more than 30 world premieres were presented.

The image shows springtime for the automotive industries: almost forgotten the evil sales figures from last year. All prominent producers showed their optimistic face on the shores of the Lake Geneva.

Dotz Girls Get Dirty @ Autosport

16 Feb 2010 in events // No Comments ›

You might think that the life of a Dotz girl is all pouting, posing and preening, but there’s a bit more to it than all that! The recent Autosport show at the NEC is a really important outing for the team, as it gives us the chance to showcase the new 2010 range to the trade and public, display the latest designs – and of course meet all of you!

So what does a typical day contain? If you’ve never been to the show, I can tell you that it’s pretty big, so walking is a big part of it. With the trade and the public days, there’s four days of hard graft to get through, whilst maintaining your best smile and making sure that we have enough leaflets and brochures for you, our lovely punters.
