In a short speech before their trip in the Mini, she said: ”The Great Campaign is designed to showcase the very best that we have to offer.

”2012 is already a year of amazing memories – but as 2013 begins we’ve got so much we’d love for people from around the world to come and enjoy – beautiful countryside; lively cities; and some of the world’s most incredible museums and hundreds of unique historic places.

”The Great Campaign also has a serious business side – Britain has trend setting fashion, groundbreaking scientists, and innovative technology companies.

”It is also a welcoming home for investors. We’re here to encourage more German businesses to join the thousands that are developing successful partnerships in Britain.”
