  • Omagh Isuzu Dealer, Pat Kirk Ltd, provided two Isuzu D-Max pick-ups to support the Omagh Motor Club Bushwhacker Rally
  • The two accessorised D-Max pick-ups were used as safety vehicles, ensuring stages were unobstructed across the event.
  • The Bushwhacker Rally celebrated its 50th edition this year and continues to serve as an important and highly followed event in the local motorsport calendar.

In late September 2025, Pat Kirk Ltd, a dealership based in Omagh, Northern Ireland, partnered with the Omagh Motor Club for its 50th anniversary of the Bushwhacker Rally.

The event, a highly anticipated occasion in the local motorsport calendar, attracts drivers from across the country to compete in multiple forest and gravel-based stages.

Pat Kirk Ltd provided the organisers with two D-Max pick-ups to ensure the overall safety of the event, as well as reconnaissance around the stages to ensure they were clear of any hazards or obstructions.

The provided vehicles were two trim levels of Isuzu D-Max, DL40 and range-topping V-Cross, accessorised with under rail liners, door visors, roof rails, and over fender sets. The D-Max duo was ideal for navigating challenging forestry tracks with their formidable 4x4 capability and high ground clearance.

Isuzu Sales Manager at Pat Kirk Ltd, Dean Harbison, said: “Pat Kirk Ltd has been involved with the Bushwhacker Rally for many years. With Pat Kirk Jnr’s long-standing passion for the sport, and many competitors and motor club members counted among our customers, supporting this iconic local event has always been a natural fit. We are delighted to continue our strong partnership with Omagh Motor Club and proud to support such a well-respected local event. We look forward to being involved for more years to come.”

Regional Sales Manager, Alan Coyle, added: “At Isuzu, we encourage our dealer network to get involved with local initiatives, so it is great to see Pat Kirk Ltd putting its local community at the core of its values. As one of our newest dealers, seeing the drive to make a difference through its support of the Bushwhacker Rally showcases the dealership already demonstrating a strong fit to the Isuzu UK brand.”

One of the latest additions to the Isuzu dealer network, joining in 2024, Pat Kirk Ltd adds a wealth of experience, having operated in the motor industry for over 50 years. The dealer remains a family-run company, harnessing the unique level of friendly, one-to-one customer service which underpins its values. Furthermore, the dealer’s tagline, “Driving at the heart of the local community,” reflects its commitment to local causes such as the Omagh Motor Club Bushwhacker Rally.
