Kiwi rally star Hayden Paddon and co-driver John Kennard are looking forward to next week’s Repco Rally New Zealand, the first time the FIA World Rally Championship event has been run in New Zealand for ten years.

The pair finished Rally Finland in fourth place in the WRC2 category, but the later disqualification of original winner Teemu Suninen elevated the pair to third place in the official results.

Not only do we lead the way in car care products, but it seems we also set the bar when it comes to logo design!

Kiwi rally star Hayden Paddon has pressed the reset button as he and the Hyundai New Zealand Rally team refocus for Rally Finland running 4 to 7 August.

The team here at Bar's Bugs are proud to announce that Repco are revving up our Bar’s Bugs range with the introduction of our new Glass and Windscreen  products, which will be launched from September of this year.

Paddon, Kennard & the Hyundai NZ Rally team were pleased with the results of their first event with the brand-new Hyundai i20 N Rally2 car in Latvia. 

Some of us plan our winter excursions, whereas others hunker down – whether it’s your season or not, life goes on!

Kiwi rally stars Hayden Paddon and John Kennard were delighted to secure first place in the Tour European Rally (TER) Championship category at Rally di Alba in Italy’s Piedmont region on 24 and 25 June. Driving a Hyundai i20 R5 car run by Hyundai Motorsport Italy (HMI), the pair were fourth overall, just 20 seconds behind the winner after nine special stages of tarmac competition.

Hayden Paddon, with brand-new co-driver Jaren Hudson alongside, has won the one-day South Canterbury Rally to maintain his lead in the New Zealand Rally Championship before he departs for four events in Europe over the next two months.

The one-day South Canterbury Rally, running 18 June near Timaru, offers Kiwi rally star Hayden Paddon more competitive kilometres behind the wheel as he readies for his return to European rallying later this month.
