      We are delighted to announce that we will be attending the Lancashire Business Expo on 25 March, so we thought we would give the event organisers, Shout Network, the chance to experience the MINI Electric for themselves!

      Shout Expo Director, Jordan, was excited for his weekend with the MINI Electric and having never driven an electric car before he wasn’t sure what to expect. We always find that you can tell someone 100 times about how fast the MINI Electric is off the mark, and how it handles like it’s on rails, so we weren’t surprised when we received a message 10 minutes after he collected the car saying, “It sure is nippy, it surprised me even after what you said!”

      Jordan had a busy weekend ahead of him, with trips around Lancashire in preparation for the Expo. Following his activity on social media, we saw Jordan make a trip to Preston North End Football Club, Winckley Square and Preston Docklands to name a few.

      Here is what Jordan had to say about his experience with the MINI Electric:

      “Having a usual preference for larger cars, I was pleasantly surprised at how roomy and luxurious the MINI Electric felt. It had an intuitive dashboard with all the tech you’d expect from a leading automotive brand such as MINI. The MINI Electric was an impressive, smooth drive and very responsive on the road. This was my first experience of driving an electric car, so I wasn’t 100% sure what to expect. I was surprised at how simple the charging was and how the car handles. The whole experience has certainly made me an electric car convert!”

      Are you interested in test driving the MINI Electric, and seeing how it could work for your business? Book your test drive* today.

            *Offer available on new BMW Motorbikes purchased from Bowker Motorrad from March 2022 onwards. No cash alternative, offer may be revised or withdrawn without notice.

            Over 200 BMW motorbike owners and superbike enthusiasts attended a charity fundraising Race Season Preview Event at Bowker Motorrad on the docks in Preston.

            The charity bar, raffle and auction raised over £2,000 for Teenage Cancer Trust and Andy’s Man Club.

            Racing teams, riders, sponsors and superbike supporters came from throughout the North West, and as far away as Reading in Berkshire, to celebrate the build up to this year’s Bennett’s British Superbike (BSB) championship.

            Head of Business at Bowker Motorrad, John Nichol, said: “Thank you to everyone who supported and attended our charity fundraiser for these worthy causes. If you loved all things racing, then our exclusive preview evening was a perfect way to celebrate the build up to the eagerly-awaited superbike racing season. 

            “We are especially grateful to the riders who spent time chatting with guests offering their unique insights and thoughts about the rounds to come.”

            The evening saw the official unveiling of the new 2022 iForce BMW BSB PR Racing livery. It was the first public appearance of the bike since Bowker Motorrad BMW confirmed its sixth successive year in partnership with the Bennett’s British Superbike Championship racing team.

            Julian Mosquera, PR Racing development director, said: “Thank you to Bowker Motorrad for hosting a wonderful season preview. And thank you to everyone who supported the event in their numbers raising money for Teenage Cancer Trust and Andy’s Man Club. It was the perfect occasion to launch our new racing livery for the 2022 season. We loved the positive comments on the night and can’t wait for the BSB season to get started.”

            This season represents the Liverpool team’s 21st season in the British Superbike Championship; this year the team is entering three riders instead of two for the first time. 

            All three riders – Dan Linfoot, Fraser Rogers and Dan Jones – attended the Bowker Motorrad event. They took part in a live question and answer session along with the riders from Smith Twins Racing and Wiz Norton Racing. 

            The three PR Racing riders will start preseason testing for the first time at Snetterton on March 26th, before heading to Silverstone for the first round of the 2022 season on April 15th.

            Watch the highlights from the evening below.

            Learner drivers in Clitheroe will be amongst the first in Lancashire to take driving lessons in a new electric MINI.

            Bob Devine of Clitheroe School of Motoring has become the first driving instructor to buy an electric MINI from Bowker in Blackburn. His new MINI electric will be available to students to drive later this month.

            After picking up his new MINI from the Bowker MINI centre on Trident Park in Blackburn, Bob Devine said: “I’ve driven MINIs from Bowker for more than 16 years now. When the MINI electric was launched last year I was immediately curious. Then I drove one – and wow! It was so smooth! I started to wonder how my learners would react if I bought one. I asked followers on my business page how they would feel about learning on an electric vehicle. And the response was extremely positive. 

            “I had no issues about switching over to electric. The automatic transmission is more popular than ever with learners. In fact, many tell me they may never need to drive a manual transmission vehicle. I have two children who, when old enough, will both learn in the automatic electric MINI. Now the driving industry as a whole is starting to adapt; ready for the future. 

            “The fuel costs alone are at least a third of my previous diesel/petrol car. That’s before you factor in road tax. The range is perfect for my business and lifestyle needs. And the environmental benefits are the icing on the cake.”

            The MINI Electric delivers 0-62mph in just 7.3 seconds. Bob will charge at home or at one of the increasing number of over 11,000 public charging points.

            For Bowker MINI, Adam O’Neill, said: “Bob has been a valued customer for many years. He is one of an increasing number of drivers taking an interest in our electric and hybrid models. We hope that Bob’s students will love driving his new electric MINI as much as he does.”

            The growth of the EV market is expected to accelerate in the coming years as the UK prepares itself for the 2030 ban on new petrol and diesel vehicle sales. By the end of 2022, it’s projected that electric cars will outsell diesel and mild hybrid diesel.

            UNLOCK THE MINI ELECTRIC. 11 – 2pm, Sunday 20 February.

            MINI Electric looks like a MINI, but does it handle like one? Does it get you where you’d like to go in style and comfort? Is it easy to charge?

            When it comes to something new, we all have questions. But why not ask someone who knows best?

            At our MINI Electric event running between 11-2pm on Sunday 20 February, you’ll be able to meet Phil and Sue, at our Preston MINI Centre, and Ian, at our Blackburn MINI Centre. They’re genuine MINI Electric drivers, so if anyone has all the juicy gossip, it’s them.

            They’ve been zapping about in their MINI Electric, and now having been Electric owners for a while, we think they’re the best people to be on hand to answer any of your questions, chat all things charging and share their electric experience with you.

            We’ll also give you the chance to be in the driver’s seat* so you can feel the thrill of its instant torque for yourself.

            And of course – it’s not an event unless there are refreshments, right? We’ll be serving up special MINI Electric cupcakes alongside tea and coffee from our refreshment bar.

            To reserve your place at the event, simply complete the form below.

              We’d like to keep in touch with you to share news on products, services and events which are relevant to you. We will not share your details with any third party organisation. If you’d like us to keep in touch with you, please tick the relevant boxes.

              Bowker Motorrad BMW in Preston has confirmed its sixth successive year in partnership with a British Superbike Championship racing team.

              Bowker Motorrad BMW will partner with North West-based PR Racing for the 2022 season.

              This season represents the Liverpool team’s 21st season in the British Superbike Championship; this year the team is entering three riders instead of two for the first time.

              For Bowker Motorrad BMW, John Nichol said: “The partnership between Bowker Motorrad and PR Racing has evolved over the years. It’s a friendship first and foremost. We even joined the team in Spain for their end of season test. Throughout the season, our staff and customers enjoy unrivalled access to the paddocks and a North West team competing in one of the most competitive superbike championships in the world.

              “Last year we were proud to be working alongside the team as they celebrated their 20th Anniversary competing in the Bennetts British Superbike Championship. It was an amazing achievement and we hope there will be many more reasons to celebrate this season.”

              The BMW Motorrad partnership agreement comes as PR Racing unveiled their riders for this season. The new lineup includes one of the championship’s most experienced riders: Dan Linfoot has over 240 career starts and 16 podiums in the BSB Championship. Dan will ride alongside Fraser Rogers and Dan Jones.

              Julian Mosquera, Team Director, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with our friends at Bowker Motorrad BMW once again this season. Like title partner iForce and Lloyd & Jones, our partners have stayed with us over many seasons. And that solid foundation of support helps to make us even more competitive.”

              “With three riders this season we’ll have a strong line up on the grid. To have secured a rider with such a high pedigree as Dan Linfoot is great for the team. He has proven he can be a force to be reckoned with and with the package we are putting together, Dan should have a great season and take the team to the next level.”

              The three PR Racing riders will start preseason testing for the first time at Snetterton on March 26th, before heading to Silverstone for the first round of the 2022 season on April 15th.
