The day made me a little nostalgic for the mini I used to own a few years ago . I'm still working through my photos from the event, but here's a few:


Flaunt Your Mini


London & Surrey Mini Owners Garage


1998 Rover Mini Cooper


Minis in the sun


"Austin Powered"


Mini Clubman - Koy Racing


Austin Mini Cooper


Rover Mini Cooper


Test Hill

I got photos of most of the cars going up the test hill for the first 20-30 minutes of that session, but have only uploaded that one above so far.

Had a great time on Sunday and the weather was great. A really nice relaxed event in a cracking location. Good way to get the Mini season going (for me at least)




Here is the same Mini a few hours later after being totally rebuilt from scratch in just under 5 hours!

A few from me - I was being brave and turning the camera on its side!
