Does anyone remember anything about these minis supposedly from the late 70's? Were done by Batchelors to promote the new snackpot. Apparently there were around 60 of them?

Bit of weird jumble of models.

They were apparently privately owned so I guess that is why there is all sorts there.

I used to work with a chap that had his Mini painted up to promote Levi Jeans. I think this would have been at some point in the 70s in London. He said that it was some kind of advertising scheme where companies would pay you to paint up your car with their branding/advertising. I guess this was done via an advertising agency. He only did the Levis advertising, he decided to pass on the next campaign – it was for Durex Condoms and said it would be too embarrassing for him driving round with his old mum in the car

 

I wonder is this was a something similar, that would explain the different models used

There used to be one near where I grew up in a KP nuts scheme

I have a Clubman needing a respray. Anybody like to buy the advertising space?
