Jaguar Land Rover and the Radisson Blu Hotel in Birmingham have
teamed up with Birmingham City Council to offer one lucky MIPIM
delegate a VIP trip to the city and the region.
Visitors to the Birmingham stand at the global property
conference in Cannes which runs from Tuesday, March 16, to Friday,
March 19, will be able to look over the brand new Jaguar XJ that is
set to take the luxury car market by storm.
The XJ has just been launched to critical acclaim in the south
of France.
Coun Mike Whitby, Leader of Birmingham City Council, is
particularly pleased that the city has managed to arrange for one
of the new models to be proudly displayed on the Birmingham stand
at MIPIM.
"The new Jaguar XJ exemplifies all that is best about
Birmingham. It is a contemporary luxury car that is beautiful,
exhilarating and sustainable.
"It demonstrates what we can do in the West Midlands and is the
most powerful showcase for our automotive industry."
After they have been fully briefed on all the existing
developments coming to Birmingham and the West Midlands, delegates
visiting the Birmingham stand will be invited to enter the
competition.
The lucky winner will experience Birmingham as a VIP for the
day. With a partner or friend, the winner will be collected from
Birmingham International Airport in a chauffeur-driven Jaguar XJ
before being whisked to Jaguar's Castle Bromwich plant for an
executive tour of the production facilities there.
Then it's on to Birmingham's landmark Radisson Blu Hotel where
they will enjoy contemporary Italian dining in the hotel's Filini
Restaurant and an overnight stay in the Presidential Suite.
The following morning they will be collected from the Radisson
Blu and taken to the exciting 4x4 off-road driving experience at
Land Rover's Home of the Legend track in Solihull.
Kathrine Ohm Thomas, General Manager of the Radisson Blu, said:
"Whoever wins this great prize will see Birmingham at its best.
"They will enjoy a fabulous meal and a luxury overnight stay in
our Presidential Suite as well as experiencing the very best that
Jaguar Land Rover has to offer."
