Hi there,

Can you please reply to this message if you're interested in attending a Scottish MINI meet? I might try and organise something if there are enough interested people.

zoooooom · Dec 28th, 2001, 12:01 PM

Of course I'm interested just try and stop me.
It's about time some of those MINI's got used get them up to Scotland lets face it the best roads for a MINI are in Scotland.

Well whats everyone waiting for get your reply posted.

smiffy · Dec 28th, 2001, 03:00 PM

Wales has some of the best Roads too

zoooooom · Dec 29th, 2001, 05:37 AM

Well get your bottom up to scotland and the next meet can be in wales.

P.S. Have you found anyone wanting my Gilbern yet (a nice piece of welsh rare bit)

Shoppie · Dec 30th, 2001, 02:45 PM

Aye! Count me in!

Bod · Dec 30th, 2001, 05:42 PM

And me! As long as it's AFTER the 1st of March 2002!

zoooooom · Dec 31st, 2001, 10:45 AM

come on where is your sense of adventure you dont even need a passport to get to Scotland from England (well not yet anyway)
and there must be more than 5 MINI's in Scotland at least there is 1 comming from Wales.

Yes, yes, yes.....we are in Ayr and made it to Gaydon so the chaps and chapesses down south have no excuses. We hope to get our MINI on 01.03.02.

Someone has to wave the flag.

After catching and cooking the Lock Ness Monster, my ambition is to run over a haggis anyway.

Late March/April would be really good.

Achh.. Sassenach. Loch Ness Monster is too canny for that, and sheep (the pre-cursor of a haggis) will do some damage to your pride 'n joy.

Well, this sassenach (and ex-patriot

) would be up for that. Could it be tied in with the international mini meeting at Kinross that smartbomb mentioned. Or do you think we might get lynched by classic Mini owners?

(Joking, honest!!)

I am attending the IMM but i will be in my mini van hopefully but i was at one of the organisers meetings and did ask about the new mini and all they said was we will make space for it
I was at Stirling last year and the Cooper register had a new cooper and i heard someone say that f*cking thing should not be here.
He obviously failed to see the various escorts novas and the like.

I go to most mini meets but in my old mini and think its the best way to reduce friction from narrow minded people.

I'm sure we could arganise something aimed at the new MINI and invite the classic to join if they so desired.
What do you think.

Crashandburn · Jan 16th, 2002, 10:57 AM

Inclined to agree, it'd prevent misunderstandings. I'm sure the majority of classic owners don't share that blokes sentiments, and it'd be good to get a few of them there if they were interested. If only to put the problems we're having into perspective.

Wonder if Viscount Charles would be interested? Anyone got a spare quart of oil / new engine / err... return rail ticket for him?

We could probably run to providing a haggis dinner to boot as well (although sitting here trying to digest my dinner I'm not sure I was right about those. Running them over has to be a better idea than actually eating them!)

zoooooom · Jan 16th, 2002, 11:28 AM

I have just had an e-mail from the mini clan and the thistle run is for minis and that includes BMW minis.

gonnandgotone · Jan 16th, 2002, 11:52 AM

yip - we'll come along for the craic !

lightbody · Jan 17th, 2002, 07:37 AM

Hi, I'm in the MINI clan and yes we welcome the new MINI.
