First RAK Motor Show hailed as a success

"We are delighted with the attendance and the feedback we had from show visitors," said Basem Assi, marketing and events manager of organizers Electromed.

"We wanted to bring together a truly unique collection of special and classic vehicles, along with a wide range of performance and customizing specialists and exciting entertainment, and I believe we achieved that."

The RAK Motor Show ran from 14 to 17 November at RAK Expo Centre and was held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Talib Bin Saqir Al Qassimi, Director General of Ras Al Khaimah Police Directorate.

Platinum sponsor for the RAK Motor Show was Gargash Enterprises, the general distributor of Mercedes-Benz in Dubai, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. RAKBANK, the leading retail and small business bank in the UAE, was the official bank of the show and Cars Clutches specialist EXEDY was also a sponsor.

"Ras Al Khaimah became the focal point for car and motorcycle fans for four days, and I believe we have the ingredients for a successful annual event that will attract even more visitors to the emirate," Assi said.

"I would like to thank everyone who helped us to stage this important first-ever motor show here in Ras Al Khaimah. We look forward to making next year's event bigger and even better."
