Having read it cover to cover, there are still a lot of typos in it... I'm sure spell checker is used instead of in depth proof reading... In many cases it's just a wrong word, but should really be picked up before publication...

Grr I had hoped to have read mine over lunch at work but forgot to bring it in! I am pleased with the coverage of the trip, I had hoped they'd give it 3 pages but I suppose we were lucky to get two.

The Waterless Valet feature was good... I wouldn't mind seeing a valet, just to see how good it is... I do believe that Zippy on here is the man behind the feature...

Cheers Sef I did the photoshoot way back on wet day in January, I think it turned out quite well in the end though. Ian Cushway (a freelance writer/photographer at the time, now editor) took the photos etc. & was a really nice guy who seemed very enthusiastic about the car/mods & MINI life in general, maybe he can bring something extra to the mag.

The Waterless process is fairly new to the UK & a lot of people have never heard of it, I've had quite a few customers that have been pleasantly surprised with the finished article though. I'm fighting against the local Kosovan/Tesco car park washes around this way for work, but hopefully 'The Blue MINI' will get more work for me

I'll have to pop up to your neck of the woods one day for a mini meet

Cheers
John
