This just in, and still being finalized – MINI of Peabody officially announced to me tonight their plans for a wonderful MINIsOnTop raffle prize:
Mini trip to England
We’ll put together a really nice package that will include the following:
* Round trip air for two from Boston to London
* 3 nights accommodations at a first-class London Hotel
* Private chauffeured car transfer to and from Oxford England and the Mini Manufacturing Facility (Oxford is approximately 60 miles from London)
[for more details of the factory tour, see: Pats write-up, MotoringFile write-up, or my trip in 2003)
* 1/2 day city tour of London
* Theatre tickets to a West End Show
More details to follow; the dates for this trip are not yet set but are expected to be Fall 2007 … and don’t forget, you’ll need a passport!

Wow! Time for me to stop procrastinating and get a passport!
Great idea on MOP’s part…great for those who already have the things that are traditionally raffled.
That is a great idea! I have done the plant tour and it was the highlight of my 10 day England / Ireland trip a couple years ago.
Wow, it would be great to go home even if only for a few days. What an amazing prize….
So very generous of MINI of Peabody…thank you to Paul Taylor and everyone at MOP. So, Grahame, we’ll put you down for 100 tickets?

Awesome idea! Although, I have to admit I’m bummed they aren’t going to offere the JCW upgrade. I was really hoping to win that for my MINI!
That’s a great idea..! Nice one MOP.
Awesome prize. I,m in. I’d love to take that tour. MOP comes thru again.
