Default MINI Required for PPC Magazine Photoshoot

Hi all,

PPC Magazine (Practical Performance Car (PPC) magazine, a monthly publication aimed at real car enthusiasts, with real-world cars.) are going to be running a buying guide on the 1st generation of new MINI in the next few months, and we are looking for a car to use in the studio photoshoot to accompany the feature.

Would anyone be interested in bringing their 1st-gen car along for the shoot? The studio is in Derby, and the date will be this coming Thursday 9th September (approx 9am-12:30pm).

Ideally we'd like a Cooper or Cooper S in a bright colour if possible, but it is fairly flexible. The car would need to be relatively clean and standard, however the odd typical mod isn't really a problem!

Please let me know if you are interested in attending, a copy of the photos will also be available to the owner afterwards.

Many thanks in advance,
James Winstanley

Chris Cooper (Mr. Cooper on here) is a good bet and is interested, you may want to PM him.

I'd love to do it, but I'd need to check my calender at work.

i think i am a bit too modified and dark coloured for this but good luck on finding a suitable mini for the feature, hopefully it can still be one of ours as would generate good publicity for the club

Well mine is definitely in and they've asked for anyone else who may be interested...

"Also, if you know of anyone else who may be interested please pass the message on."

Just email them (emails in the first post) and tell James you've spoken to me as well!!!

Sorry, my fault. I had a call from the organisers and they have said that there is only room for one car. Sorry.
