I am putting something together this week and it will be sent out to the address you've registered by weekend!

As for car stickers - they'll be given out when you register on the night!!

Hello,

Just a brief reminder that anyone intending coming on the night must register first, we can't have people just turning up and hoping to join in!

Logistically we're nearing a point where we may have to turn people away so you need to get in quick if you fancy it!!

Thanks

Michelle

I flagged down two mini's this morning in Bispham and gave them a copy of the Flyer, they hadn't heard about it. And bought their Mini's from DW....

Go on How many now????????????????????

World Record Breaker · Mar 21st, 2007, 12:18 PM

Any news of where the convoy will be haeding yet?

Woodmans Marketing! · Mar 21st, 2007, 12:30 PM

We're still on about 230 as far as i know but we may have to cap it at 250 after a little visit from the police this morning!

As for the route, we'll be heading out of the back of our compound to Peel Corner and taking a right towards Wrea Green. The first set of traffic lights on the A583 is 2.2 miles so providing the convoy makes it to there unbroken we should have cracked it! From there we'll continue along the A583 to Kirkham roundabout where we'll go straight round and back on ourselves!

So you should be able to wave at the MINIs going the other way! You get a chance to see what everyone else sees!! Funny as!

There's going to be no set order i'm afraid, it will have to be in order you arrive to the dealership as we will need to position you in rows!

Once parked they'll be no moving so make sure you're fully fuelled and raring to go!!

MINI Press Office have been on the phone to me and they're sending down a photographer who takes photos for an agency who supply to the National newspapers!! Oooohh

We're going to give him access to the BMW roof top as he'll get some cracking shots!!
