English Translation of Main Headlines

MINI APRIL FOOLS DAY “PART BY PART”. April 1 is of course April Fool’s day, an opportunity to celebrate what lies at the heart of the MINI brand – Fun. The advertisement sold the idea of building your own MINI Countryman by collecting all 29,762 parts of a MINI week by week for the next 572 weeks (or every week for the next 47 years). Week One’s part was a screw priced at only 95c plus postage and handling. Every person who actually sent the coupon in was sent the screw regardless of whether or not they actually sent the 95c or not.
