Scorpion Corporate Division
Scorpion Executive Private Hire commenced operations with its Peugeot 807 Executive in October 2004. Accepting it has always been mu intention to target business and corporate customers I have now purchased a vehicle dedicated to that sector.
The Scorpion promise has always been to provide a unique travel experience and that will now continue in style with the first luxury 4 x 4 in East Hants. The Volkswagen Touareg 3 Litre V6 Tdi Altitude was purchased in September 2006 and offers the ultimate in passenger travel. In Shadow Blue Metallic with Grey Cricket leather the vehicle has a very high specification and is stunning, not only in appearance but also performance and passenger comfort....see The VW Touareg - Scorpion B1 5EPH.
Our Corporate clients follow varied sporting activities such as Motor Racing, Horse Racing, Rowing, Polo, Golf and off-road activities such as shooting. A truly competent all-rounder, the Touareg offers a dynamic driving experience, outperforming its rivals both on and off-road. With its host of all-terrain solutions the Touareg gives the confidence to tackle the most extreme situations, while the high level of standard features mean you can admire its capabilities in comfort.
The Volkswagen Touareg and some of its achievements - Volkswagen's luxury 4x4 model, the Touareg, has been named the official vehicle partner of the prestigious West London Shooting School (WLSS) which even has a 4x4 course on the premises in Northolt, London. The natural fit between product and the sport was the foundation of the relationship between Volkswagen and the WLSS which has also launched the 'Touareg Challenge', a competition that will run for the next 12 months and open to all WLSS customers.
In 2005 Cricket captured the hearts and minds of the UK population as a young and resurgent England team beat the Australians 2-1 to reclaim the Ashes for the first time in 18 years. The driving force behind this historical achievement was two of Volkswagen's key ambassadors. Who can forget Kevin Pietersen's 158 at the Oval which secured the Ashes, or the outstanding achievements with bat and ball across the entire summer by man of the series, Andrew Flintoff, which later saw him receive the ultimate sporting accolade of 2005 when he was named 'BBC Sports Personality of the Year'.
Freddie Flintoff is already a brand ambassador for the Volkswagen Touareg whilst team mate Kevin Pietersen drives a Phaeton. During 2006 the rest of the England players will also enjoy the ultimate all round driving experience as Volkswagen have become the official car supplier of the England cricket team. The sponsorship agreement has seen the entire side and team coach Duncan Fletcher driving our luxury 4x4 Touareg. By supplying the team with a smooth, comfortable drive to and from matches and training, we are confident that it will help the players to continue to perform at their highest level on the pitch.
Descent International sit at the pinnacle of luxury ski holidays, with sumptuous chalets throughout the French and Swiss Alps. Volkswagen is a business partner for Descent, supplying 8 Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI for their in resort Chauffer vehicles. Descent's clients base get to experience the luxury of the Touareg performing in extreme snowy conditions whilst traveling to and from the slopes. Please contact Peter to discuss your requirements.
Quote from Kit Harrison (Founder of DI) "We looked long and hard at all of the top-end vehicle marques offering both on and off-road capabilities, and chose the Volkswagen Touareg as the perfect fit. Of course, reliability and safety were key to our decision. But not only does the Touareg take you anywhere that you want to go off-road, it also performs exceptionally well on-road too. It is, we believe, the best luxury 4x4 available and the ideal car for the job."
The Volkswagen Touareg's association with sailing is causing much excitement, and the synergy is obvious a powerful engine and a powerful rig! The Volkswagen Touareg is a powerful 4x4 that combines exceptional on and off-road capabilities with uncompromising luxury not to mention its superb control and power while towing.
Towing your boat is easy with a Touareg. Its excellent range of diesel and petrol engines (including the award winning 5.0 litre V10 TDI, one of the most powerful diesel engines in the world) provide the torque required to pull loads of up to 3,500 kilograms.
However, it's no use towing your boat to the water and not being able to launch it. Thankfully the Touareg delivers in this regard too. The Touareg can wade through water of up to half a meter deep (rising to 580mm with optional air suspension) and its Hill Hold Assist function makes launching from steep slopes a doddle.
These capabilities, along with its overall off and on-road performance, make the Touareg the perfect car to meet the needs of those involved in sailing events. For this reason the Touareg will once again be the official vehicle of the 2006 Skandia Cowes Week and also, for the third consecutive year, the Laser SB3 class.
Volkswagen Masters Golf tournament was launched in the UK in 2004 and has become an established amateur golf tournament, bringing together club golfers of all levels from over 17 countries world-wide. Over the last 3 years Volkswagen's Luxury Car range have supported the event, including the Phaeton Saloon, Touareg and this year, the Jetta.
Every year the top 1,000 golf clubs have been invited to enter a champion from their club medals to play at one of the regional rounds at prestigious courses across the country. There are 33 places for the UK final this year which will be held at St Andrews Bay on 7th & 8th September. Three top players from the UK final then join finalists from 16 countries on an all-expenses paid trip to the International final at Arabella Golf Course in Kleinmond, South Africa on Thursday 30 November to Sunday 3 December.
Scorpion has now entered the arena with the Touareg and I trust our clients will enjoy the same privileges as that of the celebrities listed above.
