"Motoring" the book

Just a heads up to anyone that is looking for a great reference tool or gift idea for any current or future MINI owners. A friend of mine recently published a book about "Motoring" in the new MINI Cooper. It's a very useful book for those individuals getting ready to purchase a new MINI or someone who already has a MINI and is wondering what they can do with it. It's also a great resource for those who prefer to have all their information in one place vs. searching the web for little bits of information.

Anyway, check it out. At $29.95 it's hardly an investment and good entertainment. Plus, you'll see my car on the front cover!!!

Below is a link to the MINI Mania website that currently sells the book. Thanks for the space,

Stuart

Yes, it's a great book.

Is your friend Gary Anderson? I'm a big fan of his writing. I miss British Car Magazine and I miss British Car & Bike even more.

Yeah, Gary has been in the automotive and press business for a long time and that's how we know each other. As you mentioned, he used to be the editor of "British Car" magazine and knows quite a bit about the automotive industry. He's also a great guy and really loves talking and writing about cars.

The link above gives a good review of the book. The Co-Author of "Motoring" is Don Racine of Mini Mania and there's no doubt his products are highlighted in this book. A big part of the book focuses on all the benefits we MINI owners have because our car are so versatile. Modifying your car is only one of our options.....:smile:
