These conditions of participation apply to the "MINI Countryman Facebook Giveaway App" contest. As the organiser, BMW AG reserves the right to decide on all issues which are not provided for by the conditions of participation.

1. Winnings

1 MINI Countryman can be won in the "MINI Countryman Facebook Giveaway App" contest.

The configuration of the winner's car (including colour, furnishings, engine performance) is at the sole discretion of the BMW Group and depends on the legal requirements in the winner's country, among other things.

The participant's design of the MINI Countryman in the Facebook application is not connected to and entirely independent of the configuration of the MINI Countryman to be won. In particular, the fictitious item (such as a surfboard, refrigerator, tent) to be added within the application is not part of the winnings.

Delivery of the winner's car shall depend on the regular market introduction date of the MINI Countryman in the participant's country. The market introduction dates are for the period starting September 2010 until approximately February 2011. Liability for compliance with a particular delivery date or delay in delivery is hereby expressly excluded.

2. Prerequisites for participation

Participation is not possible from all countries. The participating countries are those listed as options during the participation process.

The MINI Countryman Facebook Giveaway contest is a purely online contest which takes place over the "Win A Countryman" on the Facebook platform.

The participant must be or become a fan of the Facebook MINI page in order to participate in the contest. The participant can share his contribution in the Facebook network using the Facebook sharing function. But this can only be accomplished once the participant has given his express approval.

However, the contest is not associated with Facebook and is not sponsored, supported or organised by Facebook in any way. The recipient of the information provided by the participant in the scope of the application is not Facebook, but solely BMW AG. The information provided will be used for the sole purpose of conducting the contest.

Persons of full age with residence in one of the participating countries who are in possession of a valid driver's license are entitled to participate.

3. Exclusion from the contest

Employees of BMW AG and other companies belonging to the BMW Group including project partners involved as well as affiliates thereof are excluded from participation.

BMW AG reserves the right to exclude individuals from participating in the contest in the event that these conditions of participation are violated.

Participants who have provided false personal information or made use of illicit resources or who have otherwise gained advantages through manipulation will be excluded. In such cases, BMW AG reserves the right to deny the winnings and demand their return, even retroactively.

4. Performance and processing

Participation in the contest must take place by 11:59 noon (GMT) on 31. August 2010. The winner among the participants will be determined in a drawing procedure.

Once the deadline has elapsed, the winner will be notified via E-mail. BMW AG is entitled to transfer the winner's information to the company belonging to BMW AG (also known as the "market") in the winner's country in order to make it possible to provide the winnings.

Entitlement to the winnings shall expire if the winner does not respond within 4 weeks as of the sending of the notification or announcement of the pick-up date by the market or car dealer providing the winnings and a new winner will be determined in a lottery.

All costs incurred in picking up the winner's Countryman as well as all consequential costs (taxes, fuel, repairs, etc) shall be assumed by the winner and are expressly not included in the winnings. The warranty regarding the winner's Countryman is exclusively based on the legal provisions of the winner's country.

BMW AG reserves the right to examine the winner's claim for entitlement and modify the configuration of the MINI Countryman without stating any reasons and without prior notice. The price cannot be exchanged for cash or for another price.

5. Data protection

It is essential to register or become a fan of the Facebook MINI page in order to participate in the contest. By registering, the participant expressly grants his consent that BMW AG may save the required information for the purposes of processing the winnings and transfer it to the company belonging to BMW AG in the winner's country, which may save the personal information for the duration of the contest.

Registration on the Facebook platform is the sole responsibility of the Facebook platform operator and of the participant. Any responsibility of BMW AG to that effect, even with respect to the data protection directives, is expressly excluded.

6. Other

Any legal recourse is excluded. The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply exclusively. Should any of these provisions be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining conditions of participation shall not be affected.

Dont shout at me for bumping but, what's the etiquette with Facebook comps. Do you win just by simply "liking" the relevant group, or do they go for those who leave wacky/smart comments on their wall aswell?

If all you need to do is "like" the post then that is all you need to do ... they do not favour anyone who leaves comments anymore than anyone else .. I myself have won facebook "like" comps
