Mini is the featured marque this year.

Who's in?

My calendar is empty for that weekend, so I'll at least show up if I don't enter my car in the show.

MGB Boy · Jul 11th, 2007, 04:26 PM

Oh, I suspect I'll be there...

GBMINI · Jul 11th, 2007, 05:20 PM

I'm registered already

snid · Jul 24th, 2007, 06:55 PM

Didn't I see in the brochure that MINI of Peabody was one of the main sponsors of this year's event?

MGB Boy · Jul 24th, 2007, 09:08 PM

Yep.

-Ricardo

GBMINI · Jul 24th, 2007, 11:44 PM

They should be pushing it to all their customers ...

MGB Boy · Jul 25th, 2007, 01:21 AM

C'mon folks!

The British Invasion seems to be the Ian-Jason-Ricardo show every year. MINI is the "featured marque" this year! Come north! Get the lead out! Let's get a few more M2ers at the show. There's always lots of cool cars to check out (like the Yankee Candle bazillionaire guy who always shows up with a bevy of Aston Martins and Bentleys), there are great roads to drive, there's all kinds of good eating to be had. It's fun, it's scenic, and it's better than a punch in the gut. Sign up!

Well, that's not gonna happen.

PaulT · Jul 25th, 2007, 12:51 PM

Yes, Mini of Peabody and Meguiar's Products will be sponsoring the event. If you've never been, visit the British Invasion Website to get an idea of how big this event is. Stowe Vermont at this time of the year is one of the most beautiful places in New England. There will be over 1000 cars there of all marques; it's candy for the eyes. Of course, they don't know what they are in for with us MINI folk.

Okay...We might consider coming up on Saturday if we can heap abuse on you.

GBMINI · Jul 25th, 2007, 08:02 PM

on Paul? That's not very nice!

snid · Aug 8th, 2007, 02:10 AM

Anyone interested? It is a pretty good show with lots of good British cars. Well, the Lotus turnout has been pretty weak, but the Triumph, MG, Healey, Jag, and Morgan turnouts are always good. Then a few Rolls, Rovers, Aston Martins, etc.

Good cars, good food (depending upon where we decide to go), good driving roads (especially if you haven't already done a drive up here with a local).

So, sign up already! Or at least say you'll stop by and visit.

jwardell · Aug 8th, 2007, 12:53 PM

I'll be up there this weekend. There's usually some other car show going on at this time.

Jerseygirl · Aug 8th, 2007, 04:41 PM

I would love to do this show, but time just won't permit this year. However, I'd love to get my Spitfire up there next year if we ever get it back in one piece again (re-wiring project gone horribly wrong). Not sure I'm brave enough to drive it that far though... Hmmm....

kevinminict · Aug 27th, 2007, 03:37 PM

I may be able to attend

PaulT · Aug 28th, 2007, 07:34 PM

I'll be there; please fell free to abuse the #*%@ out of me- (I think it was in my job description.)

GrFa · Sep 1st, 2007, 04:28 AM

So how many people are actually entering their MINIs in the show? Or is everyone just going for the fun of it?

GBMINI · Sep 2nd, 2007, 02:27 AM

Entering your MINI *is* the fun of it

ThompsonR53 · Sep 10th, 2007, 07:58 PM

I'm offically entered. Finally, after all these years of going. Can I squeeze next to you guys?
