2022 Was a Big Year for Bowler Motors | 2023 Here We Come

2023 Here We Come

Posted on 19 December 2022


A summary of Bowler Motorsports in 2022

2022 has been a big year for Bowler as we welcomed an exciting return for the Bowler Defender Challenge and we would like to thank our teams, competitors and sponsors for the support that we have received to help us achieve a historic milestone with this championship. 

At the beginning of December we concluded our 2022 Rally Series with a celebratory award party for drivers, co-drivers and contributors to the series.

We have generated significant interest in the UK and Overseas which has yielded some exciting opportunities we will inform you about in the new year! 

So, what can we expect in 2023 

The Defender Rally Series by Bowler in the UK will kick off in March and 2023 promises to be bigger and better than ever, with a number of UK and International teams already signed up.  We are introducing a left-hand drive version of the car and offering the opportunity for teams to drive in major European Rallies. For more details please click here.

2023 will bring the proliferation of performance and protection features for latest generation Defender derived from our Rally Expertise.  You might have already seen our new 20” Challenge wheel which has proven incredibly popular and now available through our online store.

We are currently planning a very special Bowler 90 Hard Top which incorporates some of the best Bowler features, bespoke elements and has been designed to mark another great milestone achievement – our 100th conversion.  This will be an exclusive one-off build so if you are interested, please give us a call.  Please see below a sneak preview of the design rendering.

2023 will see us participate in more shows and events and we plan to launch experiential and participation opportunities which have been widely requested.  We kick off in January at the Autosport Show (NEC Birmingham), so please come and pay us a visit!

Over the Christmas period we will be placing a couple of 2022 Rally Cars with interested Land Rover retailers; namely Southampton, Sunbury West London & Knutsford (early January).  Please pop in to see these special cars if you haven’t already.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved and we look forward to 2023 with great enthusiasm!
