The 'new' MINI is now ten years old and is marking the occasion with a huge prize giveaway that includes a trip to the Cape Canaveral space centre.
Launched in the summer of 2001, more than 300,000 MINIs of all types have been sold in the UK alone. These cars have clocked up an estimated 15 billion miles, which is enough for 33,000 return trips to the moon.
All budding MINI fans have to do is log on to the company's website (click on the MINI logo below) and find seven hidden words to enter the competition. Any MINI owners who have a car that's clocked up more than 252,000 miles, which is the distance to the moon, will also be entered into a special prize draw to win limited edition memorabilia.
