At the vehicle handover ceremony, Mr Hickmott commented: “With such a great prize on offer, it was a no brainer that I should enter this competition but I was astounded when I was told that I’d actually won. I have owned a Honda Type S for the past nine years, so was on the website looking for my next Honda when I came across the competition. My family and I are booked to go on a trip to Devon in August so I’m looking forward to putting the Civic to the test on that trip.”

Samantha Stanton, dealer principal at Barretts Honda, added: “It’s been an absolute honour to hand over the keys to the all-new Honda Civic and we’re delighted that it’s one of our customers that has been lucky enough to win this amazing competition.”

Nick Bennett, digital content and social media manager at Honda UK, added: “The #CivicLiveChallenge was not only a fun, exciting and unique way for customers to learn more about the Civic, but it also cleverly echoed the challenging spirit of the car. We hope Mr Hickmott and his family thoroughly enjoy their new car. Huge congratulations to him once again!”
