Maserati gets racy with model Genevieve Morton — see the pics here

25 May, 2015

Maserati’s brochures already exude an air of class and luxury, thanks to the beautifully designed vehicles in their line-up. For 2015, the beauty factor will be turned up a notch, with Maserati choosing top South African model Genevieve Morton to present its vehicle range in the 2015 brochures and a global media campaign.

Morton has already completed one major photo shoot for Maserati, covering its entire range — including the flagship Quattroporte sedan, as well as the new Ghibli sports sedan, and traditional Maserati sports icons the GranTurismo and GranCabrio. You can watch the behind-the-scenes footage of the shoot in the video below:

Covering a range of environments and backdrops, the photo shoots compliment the “style, performance, elegance, and exclusivity of the Maserati range,” according to Maserati. The brochures will be released in both hard copy and digital formats, along with social media content on both Maserati’s and Morton’s social media channels.

Breakfast of champions – Brink

Some older readers may recall the amusing late 60s advertisement for a breakfast drink using World Champion racing driver Graham Hill which was made while he was out here competing in the Tasman Series.
“Drink Brink” was the phrase, subtly altered by Graham’s characteristic lisp into “Dwink Bwinkl” which drew a grin or two.
Southland Mini racing enthusiast Howard Kingsford-Smith has preserved a little bit of Mini racing history when he re-created the “Brink Mini” some 25 years ago.
“I bought what remained of the original car and made a replica I suppose or look-a-like of the original Brink Mini from Cathy Henderson about 25 years ago,” Howard explained.
