    As some of you may or may not know "The Harper's" were approached by Modern MINI magazine away back in April 2015 for a feature on their cars and in an effort to get all the cars sorted and ready for the feature Craig and I were "invited" to assist. We couldn't have asked for a better day all round and for those that don't buy the magazine, the feature has been published in this months edition. Congratulations to "The Harper's" for their 6 page article (pity that Christina's and Megan's weren't given a bit more coverage) and from me a personal "thank you" for the invite to assist with the shoot I loved being involved for the day. A copy of the pages are attached below for all members to read ... and don't forget it's the Modern MINI oscars time again so get voting for the Club. We've got a trophy to retain ...
    There's a slight change to this years voting it's been conducted on the Modern MINI Facebook page rather than via email. If you could take a couple of minutes and cast a wee vote it'd be appreciated as the award is not just a credit to the club but to ALL its members.

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    Great that it's finally appeared in the mag, I'll have to pick up a copy in the next few days. I'm sure this is only the start of Williams new found modelling career

    And thanks for the mention as well

    A very long but rewarding day, worth it all. Again a huge thanks to Davy and Craig for their efforts on helping out on the day and also to Steve who never stopped once for a break. A great feature I think just a shame the Countrymans never made the cut

    I felt honoured to be asked to assist with the day and it was a great experience ! Loved every minute and would do it again in a heartbeat. The cars all looked great and as you say just a shame other cars didn't get a bit more of a feature :)

    When's the next photo shoot !!

    It was a great day ,and something I had no idea how much went into taking a couple of pictures ,Steve showed us a side that I never knew existed and will never be able to replicate in my picture taking ,a big thank you to Craig and Davy for their efforts on the day ,just a pity that some of the pics that I thought were outstanding never made it
