Copy of updated first post....

Please reply here if you want to watch the Italian Job, this Sunday at the 7th September, at 4:15pm at Plant Oxford factory. Tickets are £2.

There's free popcorn and coke as part of the deal, and you will be watching the film in the factory at a specially put up cinema!



This is a unique chance, first come first served, so please, come and be served ASAP!

SUNDAY 7th September
MINI Plant (OX46NL to find it on Multimap, or SATNav)
Gates open 4.15pm, use Main Car park
Film Starts 4.45 pm
Price for this is a measly £2.00 each, and you get a free Coke and Popcorn.

Whizz Kids charity collection if you want to donate as well.

We are going in the main entrance, which is off the A4142, it's pretty obvious how to get there once you're there, honest.

Any more takers? This is a chance to see a film almost a week before it's premiere, at the place they make our MINIs, for £2 with FREE POPCORN AND COKE!



Miss it and you'll regret it forever (well, maybe not forever, but maybe for a little while).

Wassapnin, this ended up on the Cooper S thread, not sure why, anway the stuff below is for all the people who registered and maybe a few more. But my cover is blown, what the hell Its a great company, great job and a brilliant car,even if it does pull to the left, rattle, use too much gas etc.etc(delete not applicable)
Thanks to all MINIACS who have registered, Great effort from all, the organisers are eternally in your debt.
We had > 50 tickets reserved for you and nearly all are now taken. Thanks to MINI2.com on behalf of the plant and organisers and not least the inestimable talents of one PAUL MULLET. Still a few left, but you need to be quick, booking closes at 9:00AM Sunday , unless they all go B4..
Well done everyone, enjoy the show and thanks again

The cinema has MINIs watching in the front row, how cool is that!

Thanx again

If any one is interested the Rover Sports and Social club ( they havent changed the name ) has its annual model flying club event next door to the factory from 10-5pm . Theres flying displays, licenced bar, family entertainment, BBQ, and free parking . It will also give you a chance to talk to the people who make the Mini. Ideal for children.

No plans, but we could try to gather in the car park, the gates open at 4:15pm, so we could all try to meet up inside, I dont know the area well enough to think of an easy place outside for us to gather at and arrive in convoy.

Suggest you all park up in the carpark on the left side as you face the plant, theres a building to the left of the road with a big steel structure in front with the words INFO on it. Thats the visitor centre for factory tours. If you all meet up there from say 4:00pm onwards, that will give you time to compare wheels, routes, etc. doors open 4:15, performance begins 4:45. Security gate for your ticket collections is at the end of the road by the info centre.
If you want to convoy in, then there is a Macdonalds at Headington Roundabout off the A$0 into Oxford, or a park and ride just south of Kidlington which is to the north of Oxford (Banbury Road)
The Plant is on the Oxford Ring Road, to the Eastern side of Oxford you can't miss it

So far as I know our allocation of 50 is all gone, so no more space.

If you missed out and wanted to come along, apologies.

To those that did make it, see Goonery's post for advice, and I'll see you there!

If anyone is passing through, we will be meeting/leaving Milton Keynes at 3:00pm this aftrernoon, in the top carpark of the Kingston District where we met for the Milton Keynes MINI Run, this is to the left of the Kingston Tavern pub as you look at it, past McDonalds.

We'll then be running up through Buckingham, Bicester, Oxford route if anyone sees us!

I think we should meet up as Goonery suggested (if possible), but if not, then see you there!

My car in case you want to hunt me down... no MINI2 sticker yet either!
