Must admit I thought there'd of been more of a rush on this one as other factory tours on this forum have got fully subscribed pretty quickly.

Any one from SCNM fancy doing thiis one with a run up and back from the North Hampshire area?, come on you know you want to, well worth a day off work!!!!!!


Dave,

How many do you need to make this viable?, I might be able to drum up a few non MINI2 folks if you need to make up the numbers. Let me know within the next week or so as I've got a local Tiumph car meeting on 6th April and may well be a couple of the Triumph petrol heads interested if you are still short.

Cheers Cook1e

Woohoo !
Watch the numbers double now ; - )
I'm guessing that you're a bit more interesting than the chap that took us round Munich on the tour of the BMW Factory - It was a very interesting tour, but the bloke could have bored a samaritan to suicide ;-)

If the talking tour guide bores you you can talk to me instead, that's fine
