Motoring Graphics Strike Again, This Time at the Auto Expo
by Tim Yontz on February 23rd, 2009 at 10:43am in Events, NewsSo Cincinnati MINI made and appearance at the Cincinnati Auto Expo ‘09 last weekend, and from what I hear, it was a hit. I wasn’t able to make it to the show, so I’ll let someone else post about that. There was, however, a car that Cincinnati MINI took down there that reminded me of an earlier post by Jenna about Motoring Graphics. We had a car on display down there that you could say had “the works” when it came to Motoring Graphics. It was decked out bumper to bumper in them. I’ll let the pictures do the talking…
Looking for something fun and exciting to do this weekend? Come on down the Duke Energy Convention Center and check out the MINI booth at The Cincinnati Auto Expo going on now through Sunday. All of your favorite MINI Motoring Advisors will be down there answering questions and having a good old time. And if you don’t recognize us, well don’t worry, it’s because we have dressed up to make the Cincinnati MINI booth look like a blast from the past…the 60’s to be exact! Why you might ask…because it is fun! We even have the 2009 MINI Cooper Convertible on display! Now what could be better then that? See you there
It seems everyday there’s a new story about a celebrity plastered in magazines, on the internet or the television screen (usually all three!) We cannot get enough of what “so and so” is doing, what they are wearing or who they were seen with. And I admit to it, some of the only shows I’ll sit down to watch include reality television.
Well in this blog post – I will be keeping you up to date not on what the celebs are wearing, or who they are with BUT WHAT ARE THEY DRIVING!! Check out below to see which celebrities drive MINIs. Can you guess which famous TV celeb drives a Chilli Red MINI with Matching roof? (here’s a hint – if someone tried to steal her MINI from her she might throw them “Overboard”) (more…)
2009 marks the 50thAnniversary of the beloved MINI Cooper! 1959 MINI was first produced by British Motor Corporation and was designed by Sir Alec Issigonis. What is MINI doing to celebrate this birthday you may ask? Well they are having a rokin’ birthday party, that’s what! The MINI United Festival will be held at Silverstone Circuit, just an hour outside London on May 22nd through May 24th this year. There will be four fun filled days of MINI Challenges, MINI Seven Race, live concerts, DJs, MINI Stunt Shows and more! Check out http://www.miniunited.com/web/guest/start for more information on the party and more MINI history. And Happy Birthday MINI!
