Dinner with Butler, Shine, Stern, & Partners

Posted on August 21, 2006February 12, 2017 by Ian C.

Tonight I was invited, with four other MINI owners (and their partners) to an excellent dinner at the Bouchon restaurant courtesy of Butler, Shine, Stern, & Partners, MINI USAs new advertising agency.

Curiously, 4 of the 5 owned MINIs were brand new GPs! Ed from BSSP chatted with us about MINI, the community, the MINI USA owners lounge, the ’07 MINI, the future “Traveller”, and advertising – both past (counterfeit MINI), current (the Book Of Small) and future (an upcoming “we feel your pain” campaign drawing attention to the sad life of SUV owners)

Sadly nothing “secret” that hasn’t already been published on MotoringFile or MINI2 – but the food was excellent and the company & chat very enjoyable.
