I have to say it wasn't as big as I was expecting! Didn't buy anything but did manage to sniff out the freebies within an hour of getting there :grin:

It was great meeting all the forum people who made it through to the Sunday - so glad I hadn't camped now :tongue:

highlight was definately trying to take down our club stand gazebo in the wind with not enough people - good job Mark wasn't there with his camera

[cowboy]

mark was to busy helping to take down the tents to take pictures this morning, glad you met those that made it through to today

Hi Guys,

I went to Mini45 on Sunday, didn’t see you guys there, where were you?? Ah well.

Got a shiny new grill + surrounds.
A steering coloum lowering bracket.

And a splitfire cable. (Dont know if you saw them demonstrating it but they split the spark into 5 separate sparks so ifs more efficient).

Took along my digital camera so got a few pics and videos of Russ Swift on 2 wheels which was ace!

It could have been bigger though.


Oh and flyered 10 cars outside on Sunday and gave out 2 flyers. (All i could print out as my printer is nackered)

And my mini forum sticker was put on on saturday for all to see!!!!

[neil_g]

see sig for pics :cool:

[Dom]

were the things cheaper at the show than say buying them at mini sport?

[neil_g]

personally i think some things were overpriced.. im sure i saw a set of GAZ's for about £20-30 more than ive seen elsewhere on the internet..

[Dom]

oh because when i went to the southern mini days last year things were a lot cheaper. i didnt buy anything tho but my friend did. :tongue:

glad you all enjoed it.

hope to come to the next meet if its in 2+ months time when i can drive

[CharlieBrown]

mcm:

I got a grill with surrounds for £54 and made them throw in a steering lowering bracket for free. This was on the mini sport stand. It was about £15 cheaper than in the shop normally.

It wasnt the cheapes grill but it was a heritage one and was good quality, not like some of the grills I saw. So I was happy.

[Freda]

I was talking to one of the traders - he said it would've cost him £6000 for the size stand he wanted :saywhat: perhaps thats why there weren't that many there...

[Freda]

ps took some video of Russ Swift too - will send it in, I know he's driving blobs nowadays but he's still fantastic to watch :grin:
