MINI GP 0001 - New York Auto Show '06

Here are some shots from the auto show.

Who would like to join the MINI GPs coming from Monterey, CA to Lime Rock, CT.

I'd like to maybe meet them somewhere in PA or NY and drive with them to their final destination of Lime Rock for Lime Rock Vintage Car Days 4 Sept 06.

Anyone up for a little motoring?

Very dark inside the car and they were keeping it locked.

They are in that car. Maybe that's why they kept it locked.

An easy way to spot us is our plates: We're going to transfer the plates from the Flame MINI to the GP. So look for VA plates reading PHYR FLY. It actually fits the GP too.

Those would look really well with the jcw leather covered dash with red stitching!

Also, the car is GP 0001, and its probably got uk spec because the uk is likely to get the first 444 numbers

Good point. Probably Euro spec, isn't GP0001 the one they ran in Germany for the video?
