Hi, new to forum, felt like I had to post this after seeing it on a friends facebook page.

The deal appears to be that Hyundai have cars available to test drive at 5 safari parks which gives you and your family totally free entrance to the parks.


available from the hyundai website but as new user I cant post any links , go to hyundai cars, I40, explore

Welcome to your exclusive invitation to experience the all new Hyundai i40 Tourer at one of the UK's leading safari parks this summer. Choose from Longleat, Woburn, Knowsley, Blair Drummond and West Midland safari parks where you'll get free entry for the full day. Spaces are limited so make sure you reserve yours now.

I have booked mine for tomorrow at Knowsley with the hubby and kids so will let you know how it goes, presume they will try the hard sell but probably worth it to save the £50 ish entrance fee

Darn I wish I'd seen this sooner!!!

We went yesterday and had a great day. Got to Knowsley at 10.30am, went to the Hyundai kind of office (you couldn't miss it), signed 1 or 2 forms and let them photocopy my driver's licence. They gave us wristbands for the rides for all of the family (I think these were worth £10 each). Meanwhile the kids were downstairs with my other half where they could have their face painted and could enter a colouring competition. We were given a drivetime of 11.45am so we walked around the elephants, meerkats and giraffes (we were very lucky to get to feed a giraffe whilst we were there by chance) whilst we waited. It was great actually because at this time the walk through part of the park was empty because everyone must've been driving through the safari park at that time. We went back to the Hyundai office with our kid's booster seats and were given a top of the range i40 and away we went. We didn't go through the monkey enclosure as we'd been asked not to (to be honest we were very grateful of all the freebies so feel it would've been quite disrespectful to then take one of their brand new cars through there), we got a great view anyway as they sit right next to the fence and we could see them pretty much destroying everyone else's cars (wipers, mirrors, the plastic parts where the roof rack goes all pulled off/bent). I panicked a bit when a camel tried to stick it's head through my open window (my own fault really but didn't expect him to get so close)! It took us just over an hour and a half to get through, returned the car and filled in a very short questionnaire and then went off to enjoy the rest of the day. We didn't leave 'til gone 6pm and spent less than £10 all day (ice creams), we took our own lunch.

Really grateful to the OP for a great deal :-D

Just noticed that Hyundai have put the footage on youtube from this (if you agreed to filming). http://www.youtube.com/user/HyundaiMotorUK

It might also be a good idea to get this thread moved to the 'it's gone but was it any good' board to avoid disappointment with it now being fully booked?
