18/06/2004 - Honda’s new lawn tractor scoops 2 top national awards

At a glittering gala dinner at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, Honda was honoured with two of the biggest gardening awards in Britain. Readers of the Daily Express newspaper and Gardens Monthly magazine along with viewers of UK Style television voted the Honda HF2620 lawn tractor ‘National Gardening Awards Best Garden Machine 2004’. Honda and the winners of eight further Gold Awards then went forward into the best-of-the-best category for the ‘Platinum Award for the Best Garden Product or Service 2004’. This ultimate accolade was also awarded to the Honda HF2620 lawn tractor with trophies presented by BBC Gardeners’ World TV presenter Joe Swift.

I’m thrilled, this is a great endorsement for the product because it’s voted for by the people who really matter, the gardeners, says Jeff Dodds of Honda. We have listened to the market place and developed a domestic lawn tractor that incorporates technical features never before seen, all without compromising Honda’s standing as ‘The Best name on Grass’.
