Excellent show with over 5000 cars on site, Highlight for me at the show was was the performance of Russ Swift. To see him performing live was special. Well done to all who helped in putting the event together and making it happen.
The members who attended were a credit to the Mini Club of Ireland. The backup club tent/stand looked fine over the few days and especially as the weather was brillent. Needless to say the new club van was well used with carrying back all the spare parts etc.
Next Year the IMM is in Bavaria (Germany) and the year after the Swiss were awarded it. The drive home was a bit special and extended the thrills of the entire weekend. I will remember this event with a smile for hopefully many years to come. Thanks for your company guys.

Just want to say thanks to everyone that made this weekend such a laugh! I never stopped laughing/smiling all weekend, it was such a great event to get 'back' into the Mini's after so long away.

Was also such a great feeling taking a classic for a spin around the park over the weekend too, that was a long-lost feeling!!

Lots of great cars on show, and in fairness, the MCOI put on a great show, out tents and club van stuck out a mile, and we got alot of interest from passing people.

Once again, thanks to everyone for the weekend, where to next? Germany? No WAy! Bavaria!!

Sparkie,

I can remember Sparkie driving around the fields and his fan club after him. No wonder you were wearing that Russian type smile all weekend. Mark, its great to have you back buddy and we enjoyed your company, Now we need to get you a job and keep you around.

Planning for Baveria starts in September.
