CarFest is the brainchild of Radio 2 presenter and new Top Gear host Evans, raising funds for BBC Children In Need via a family-orientated, high-octane blend of fast and exotic cars, celebrity cameos and live music.

Having played a leading role at last year’s events as well as at this year’s CarFest North, which took place at Oulton Park earlier this month, Honda (UK) will return to Laverstoke Park – the home of ex-Formula One World Champion Jody Scheckter– with an array of crowd-pleasing activities and displays.

These will include The ATV Experience on Honda’s TRX420 which will be both fun and educational, teaching older teens the inside line on throttle control, slaloming, overcoming obstacles and balance.

Mowers will also be on show with ride-on racing for 16-year-olds and above, around a timed garden course, where lane control and garbage-grabbing are orders of the day.

Also Honda’s latest Robot mower, Miimo, will be on a working display in the Honda activity centre and will inspire a unique children’s drawing activity.
