2008 Mini Calendar

Hi everyone, I am not sure if you can help or not, but here goes!

I have been searching the internet for a 2008 Mini Calendar, unfortunately I have only found classic mini calendars which are very nice but I would prefer a calendar with the newer model.

Does anyone know where I can get one from or have any suggestions as to where I would start looking?

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Take care
Debbie

Might be daft/obvious, but MINI dealers will usually stock them (official MINI Ones). Also, some of the regional clubs/forums seem to produce some nice ones too.

Easy - Google "avonside calendars" and search their site for MINI. They do a classic and 'new' MINI calendar.

My son got me the 2007 one. Not sure if he got it from Smiths, those cheap calendar stalls in shopping centres or online though.

Also not sure if they really have a grasp on what constitutes a 'new' MINI though, as the 2007 edition had no hints of the Clubman or R56 (perhaps not ready before publication mind!).

Should be easy to get hold of.

usually MINI dealers don't even know about it - so go to www.mini.com and click on the International website - it is in there with all the rest of "the collection" and this year is 19 euros.

Personally I don't think they are as good as they have been.

As Paul said some clubs do their own - and ours (the Severn's) will be available soon. We basically hold a monthly photographic competition and the winner goes into the calendar. We then publish this through cafe press and people order from there so it costs us nothing to do but we earn commission and the winners get their pics on a calendar.

Might be a good idea for MINI2 Paul, what with all the top notch photographers on here

Thanks for your help

Thanks for the suggestions. I did try Woody’s but unfortunately they could not help and only found classic mini's on google search.

I’ve had a look at the Avonside Publishing site and this looks the closest to what I am looking for.

Thanks again

Hi Debbie, Glad you got to grips with starting new threads. Told you the guys in here would know where to find one. Here is a link to the NAM calendar I mentioned in my PM. Don't know if they post to the UK, (and the calendar has US holidays on it), but if the photography is as good as their screen saver it will be a great calendar.

North American Motoring :: Drive Thru Online, Inc.


Oh and if you're feeling hands on you could always make your own up using this site

http://www.qoop.com/photobooks/flickr_user/login.php?frob=72157603423161723-e904de64f1e74f4e-8022805&extra=|||||||||

Up in the north west we had our own cars made up into one last year as I mentioned. If you wanted to go down this road I'm sure some people on here would be more than happy to let you use their photos. It would be far more interesting that the Avonside one above. Let me know if this interests you and I'll give you access to my full sized photos here if they are of any use.
