Mini has created a special version of its Electric hatchback covered in 2,000 LED Christmas lights to raise money for charity.
The project’s creator Nico Martin first wrapped his own Mini in fairy lights three years ago to display in his local town of Bracknell, and managed to raise £5,000 from the Festive Mini last December.
Now he has enlisted the support of Mini UK, Festive Lights and smart lighting company Twinkly to make the Festive Mini brighter than ever, while also taking the model on a UK tour, visiting a range of locations.
Each year Martin raises money for the MS Trust and Duchenne UK, but has introduced a guest charity for 2021 – Alzeimer’s UK – with the hope to raise more than £50,000 this year.
