Pimp My Minor

For some time now I have been trying to sell panels on the minor to corporate sponsors. I am now please to announce two such deals.

The first was to my mate Rick who runs Berkshire Property Maintenance. Rick very generously sponsored the rear pane of the car and even put in some incentives for extra sponsorship if I can get the car in the press etc.

Pretty certain I will manage that so hopefully there will be some extra money on it’s way to Help for Heroes as soon as the press releases are written.

My plan is to get the kids at Lynn’s school to write the releases so it would be a very hard hearted hack that will ignore them!


The second corporate sponsor was WIN. WIN are a technology service provider and text aggregator and have not only sponsored a panel on the car but also set up a text short code so that anyone can text in to sponsor us!!

They are also investigating whether or not they can track us on the journey se we may be able to have a LEJOG tracker page for the drive- this will allow all interested parties to see where we have broken down at any time day or night!

Finally I persuaded Lynn’s brother to do the sign writing. The car was finished about a week ago and looks wicked. Steve’s company impact graphics have done an amazing job despite the rubbish paint finish- in fact now the graphics are on I think the car handles better as the rigidity has been increased significantly.


The next major job is to do my press releases and try and get some more coverage and sponsors- we don’t have many more weeks to get to the £2k target so the more exposure we can get the better.

Over the next few weeks I intend to expose myself across the local area so watch out Newbury!!
