Southern Inflatables (UK) Ltd
Whilst
we were exhibiting at the Association of Police Fleet Managers Exhibition in
August this year, Richard Baker - Director of Surefire 1, approached us. He expressed a great interest in our
Inflatable Temporary Buildings and enquired whether we would be interested in
sponsoring Surefire 1 with an Inflatable Temporary Building to be used to house
the vehicles whilst touring and assisting Quicksilver for the World Water Speed
Record.
We
are world record holders ourselves, currently holding the World Record for
manufacturing the largest Bouncy Castle 19m Square and 12m High. We jumped to
the opportunity to help and be involved in a British World Record attempt which
after seeing the car in action have no doubt that the Rover MG-ZT will be the
NEW record holder and that are be proud that Southern Inflatables (UK) Ltd was
involved.
