At the beginning of the year, I wrote an article about the creative celebration of Mini’s 50th birthday. The car-manufacturer invited ten well-known artists, including urban artists like Seak One, Tika and Smash137 to repaint some of their cars.

Some days ago, I received a package from BMW Switzerland (the owner of Mini) with some of the corresponding “Wash Me” books in it!

For that reason, I will give away three of these books to you today! All you have to do is to twitter a link to this article up to and including January 22nd, 8pm. Please, don’t forget to mention me (@berlinpiraten), otherwise I’m not able to find out who participates and who not… Tomorrow evening I will randomly decide three of you who will get the books for free.

[Update] The contest ended on January 22nd, 2010. The winners have been informed. [/Update]

The 100 pages, full color book documents the unique car painting event and costs normally about 20€.
