MINI Suspended Over the Sea

There is an interesting promotion going on here in Turkey, organized by a national newspaper. They've got a MINI Cooper suspended over the sea on a crane. When you login the website of the campaign each day, you get one chance to win the car - hopefully a real Cooper, not the mockup which is on the crane

The story is that if less than 10,000 people login on a particular day, the MINI goes down by 50 cm. So we are trying to save the car from getting dumped into the sea.

Here are some photos: MINI Cooper suspended over the sea - a photoset on Flickr. Oddly, I seemed to be the only person interested in the car when I was out there taking the photos even though the crane is located at a busy spot on the seaside in Istanbul. My chances of winning the car should be high, right?

So I log on, and dream on everyday.

Best of luck mate,
All the MINI2 wishes I can send you that a fellow site-member wins the car.

Thanks. It's been a while. Game Over. No, I didn't win it.

So, still the only two MINIs (actually one MINI and one Mini) I have are the ones on my table at work.
