On November 24th, a convoy of MINI cars will leave BMW Group headquarters in Munich and drive all the way to Rovaniemi, located at the Arctic Circle, to bring Santa Claus Christmas letters written by children and adults from all over the world.

At the same time, MINI will try to set a Guinness record for the longest wishlist to Santa Claus.

The convoy will travel more than 3,000 kilometres and pass through a number of beautiful European cities such as Copenhagen and Stockholm.

Upon arriving in Rovaniemi, they will join the new MINI Paceman, the latest addition to the MINI family, as well as Rauno Aaltonen, the winner of the 1967 Monte Carlo Rally.

Looks like the magic of Christmas is working again...
