BMW Malaysia is currently having a competition to celebrate both the MINI brand’s upcoming 1000th customer as well as the MINI brand’s 50th birthday next year.

MINI Limited Roof DesignThe 998th, 999th and 1000th MINI customer in Malaysia will be able to visit the MINI Plant Oxford in the UK and will be invited to the MINI 50th birthday bash at the Silverstone racing circuit, all expenses paid of course! BMW Malaysia is expecting to hit 1000 MINIs on our roads sometime in early 2009.

These 3 lucky customers will also get a special limited edition roof art (design shown on the left, click for larger image) for their MINI designed by 26 year old Penang-born artist Munkao.

Existing MINI owners will also be able to win the plant visit and party invite (but not the roof design though). What you need to do is submit a creative shot of you and your MINI along with the slogan “I love my MINI because…”. This photo and slogan must be submitted at the contest website at 1000LoveMINI.

I’ve been to Plant Oxford before, courtesy of BMW. Read my plant visit stories in the two related links below.
