For a quarter of a century, Goodwood, in southern England, hosted one of the most inspiring and accessible events on the world motorsport calendar.
At the edition of the Festival of Speed (FoS) which will take place this year from July 12 to 15, a unique Mini will be auctioned.
The unique model was created by Oliver Heilmer, head of mini-design, and his team for the wedding a few weeks ago of Meghan, Duchess of Susbad, and Prince Harry, Duke of Susbad.
and presented to one of the charities chosen by the couple, the non-profit badociation Children's HIV Association (CHIVA). The exclusive Mini 3 Door will be auctioned on July 13
A host of details dedicated to the happy couple make the Mini a truly unique piece.
The roof chart, for example, is essentially an amalgam of the national flags of the United States and the United Kingdom. And when you open the driver's and front pbadenger's doors, an exclusive "Just Married" greeting appears on the floor on the outside.

"We are delighted that CHIVA has the chance to auction this special MINI at the Goodwood Festival of Speed," says Heilmer.
Mini-concept cars at the Festival of Speed
Every year, the Goodwood Festival of Speed gives vehicles of different eras the opportunity to strut about – models from Pre-war to Formula One racers.
The event is all about speed (as its name suggests) and visitors enjoy a near-race car experience on the show .
One of the highlights is the free access to the paddock throughout the Festival of Speed and the interaction between visitors and racing personalities increasingly rare.
The FoS 2018 edition also sees Mini present two design studies: Concept and John Cooper Works GP Concept, which were unveiled for the first time at the IAA International Motor Show in Frankfurt last year.
The Concept Mini Electric & Mini John Cooper Concept Works GP
The electrical concept is projected into the future on a wave of innovation.
The design study offers a taste of the first fully electric Mini model (to be introduced in 2019) and urban mobility in the coming years. Urban mobility has always been part of the Mini brand's DNA and the city is its natural habitat.
The concept of the John Cooper Works GP is the reservation of the Mini range at Goodwood. Inspired by the legendary success of the brand in Monte Carlo exactly 50 years ago, this concept car offers uncompromising dynamics and ultimate driving pleasure.
