Boon Army!

Clint and MINI celebrate a joint 50th Birthday with a MINI Boon Army.

Crowds watched in amazement as a military convoy of MINIs and WWII Jeeps invaded Manchester with legendary music icon Clint Boon heading up the parade at the wheel of his specially designed ‘Boon Army’ MINI, courtesy of Williams Manchester as a gift for his 50th Birthday.

MINI also turned 50 this year, so with this double birthday bonanza, the Inspiral Carpets genius and Williams MINI Manchester decided to team up and celebrate in style.

Clint of his MINI, “My bespoke MINI is amazing – the best present ever – and I’ve been driving all over Manchester in it, even DJing out of the boot and starting flashmobs with hundreds of people. It’s been a fantastic way to celebrate my 50th birthday with such an iconic car”.

Graham Reedy, the MINI Sales Manager at Williams Manchester says: “It seemed perfect to team up with Clint as both he and MINI turned 50 and he fits in so well with MINI’s hip and iconic reputation. We had so much fun designing his bespoke MINI and thought carefully about choosing the ‘Boon Army’ theme for his Clubman to create the camouflage look”.

Thousands of Mancunians have spotted Clint in his one-off birthday edition MINI over the past couple of weeks, with Clint having been at the heart of spontaneous events around the city. We hope he had as fantastic a 50th as MINI did!
