Sunday June 14th defied the somewhat shaky weather predictions that preceded it by providing glorious sunshine for our annual National Mini Day. This year was a special one for the club as we were celebrating our 40th birthday alongside the Cooper Car Company who were celebrating their 80th.
To mark this the theme for the Central Display was Coopers through the years and we were graced with the presence of Cooper No.1, the car that started it all.
We had a record number of attendees (over 2400) and enjoyed the support of our three club sponsors, Mini Sport, Howdens Insurance and our oil partners Withams. All 50 trade stands were sold out (with a waiting list) and the trunk traders brought their many and varied used parts for sale.
The Concours d'Elegance was again well attended with some truly special cars. The concessions provided food and the Brabazon restaurant was open to all those who wanted a break from the show field. If you needed a distraction then the museum itself was open to anyone that had purchased a ticket to our event, what a great way to spend a Sunday. Here are just some of the pictures taken on the day.
