MINI United 2009 - 50th Anniversary Official Celebration!

Postby Owen » Thu Jun 12, 2008 8:30 am

MINI United is happening again next year, in conjunction with the original, and classic Mini's 50th anniversary. The good news is that it's in the UK, which means we should be able to go with a minimum of fuss. This is a crazy 3 days, which usually has the MINI Challenge race finals on the same weekend so it's like watching F1 for MINIs, there's usually nightclubs on site, top bands and DJs, delicious restaurants, shops with MINI stuff for sale, and usually they have some serious MINIs on display, and some gorgeous classics too.

I was at the one in 2005 in Misano, Italy (Anyone who's seen the mirror caps on my car knows that of course), and it was crazy, there were 6000 people at it.

Who's up for it?

Got to be done Owen! Could be a huge party and another chance to see Pauly fall off his chair on an International Level:)

Hoping to get to this and the IMM next year. Hope to take the two classics to the IMM and the S and one of the classics to MINI United. Already saving Tesco Vouchers for cheap Ferry trips! ;)

I don't think it will be Oxford by the way, if it's to incorporate the MINI Challenge, it will surely be a circuit.

I would hazard a guess at Northampton and Silverstone!

Niall - do I have to nominate Ferry vouchers now to start saving?....or do I just change over to 'Gifts' and then select the Ferry vouchers nearer the time?? :?
