Think of a premium OE manufacturer and it is highly likely their cars or bikes will be riding on Dunlop. Years of research and development into producing tyres that perform to the strict standards set by luxury and sports car manufacturers and bike manufacturers means that OE manufacturers trust Dunlop.

BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche, Bentley, Land Rover, Ford and Lexus may be competing to build the world's best car.

Car manufacturers logos used should match those printed on the "Sharing the passion" part of Drivers Know brochure. However, also need to include the "Credentials" part of the current web page on "Sharing the passion" page.

Tyre Test endorsement part of "Dunlop Peerless pedigree" should be moved to "Seal of Approval" section in drivers know. Also need to include endorsement quotes used in this part of the brochure and the picture.
