Was slightly disappointed. Don't think the Vendors had a great day either. There was some nice cars there, but nowhere near the turnout for Bingley Hall, or Dudley. One thing I personally didn't like was the amount of BMWs. I'm loathe to call them a Mini, as they are behemoths. There was also no catering in the Hall, which wasn't clever as you are always going to get hungry and thirsty people at a Show like this. I did buy more OLD parts at auto jumble than I expected though. Jim

Not as good as last year, dragged a mate down who hadnt been to a mini show in a few years, wish i hadnt bothered and it wasnt going to impress him at all. got a couple of bits i needed but overall not worth the considerable fuel and time cost.

Never hit myself with a rubberband off the wings, but I did try to stop an IC engine once with a gloved hand, but only because the throttle got stuck wide open and the aircraft was just about ready to take off LOL

I don't think I've actually heard anyone moan about it to me to be honest.

MPG figures seem to sell cars. A shame really. :(

The one that gets me is people who complain about how they are getting taxed due to their company car. If you weren't paying the extra tax you would be paying everything for the car.

New game mini

Would that be OK for MOT? It's not a perfectly round hole but I could make it work.

If it's a rusted out plug and you can clean it up and make it round again and replace with a grommet then I can't see it being a problem as long as it hasn't got sharp edges
