    Not sure how many folk on here browse PH, but they are planning a 4-day JCW road trip with film footage etc, for all generations. You need to have a JCW and it needs to be stock-ish i.e. OEM power. Puts me out...

    If there's camera time, it could be a good advert for NMS


    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs

    We don't mind a few tweaks but need to avoid cars that have been mapped for more power. All will become clear in due course...
    Wonder what their definition of a tweak is?

    I’m guessing that aesthetic mods would be acceptable but 300bhp track monsters wouldn’t be too welcomed.

    Reading the original post it sounds like MINI are after some form of advertising material.
    I’m guessing that they want as OEM cars as possible by the sounds of it.
    I’d be OK because I do have a trophy that confirms that my car is completely standard.

    I’ll be in Americaland when this is happening so I’m out before it even begins though...

    Mini have used the guy rocket robs red R56 in advertising material and his car isnt standard. It does have just about every jcw option on it though

    I've pinged them a quick email just to see 1. where it is, and 2. what sort of cars they're looking for.

    Find a picture of a certificate for the sound kit. I'm sure nobody would be bold enough to call you out
