I've just been told that due to the rate of advance ticket enquiries (I think the sun must have spurred everyone on) the ticket line will be kept open over the weekend. http://www.minicoope...ets/tickets.htm

Oh and the same applies if you want to sell your car or have a trunk traders pitch.

Some people have asked "what if I want to sell my car and already have a ticket?" No problem, just give me a call on 02392 551182 9-5 or 02380 560073 eves.

Might sound like a stupid question, but are you allowed to park your car in the show grounds (without a club or trading stand) if it's not a cooper?

And also, what time would you recommend getting down, don't want to get down ages before it all kicks off!

All minis and MINIs are allowed to park on the show grounds. Other cars are'nt! The show opens at 10am, but you can get in about an hour earlier.

If you've got a car to sell you can put it in a dedicated area and attract more attention. Cost is only £5. Booking in advance from the ticket hotline. http://www.minicoope...ets/tickets.htm

Trunk trading is also available, description and cost here...http://forum.minicooper.org/showthread.php?t=16398

The weather has been booked! Attendance promises to be good. See you there.

I have been asked sooo many times if trunk traders and car sales can be booked on the day. Just in case it is wet - it won't be!! But I have decided YES.

Trunk traders are allowed a small pitch to sell their bit and pieces. This will be a dedicated area set aside so will concentrate sellers for all those buyers. No tables and no vans please (keeps us on the right side of insurance), a 10ft x 10ft pitch will cost you £20 on the day, speak to the marshalls as you enter and they will direct you.

Car sales will cost £10 on the day, obviously only Minis allowed, again speak to a marshall on the day. The car sales area will be in a fenced off area and is great for highlighting your car to potential buyers. Any questions, email me on beaulieu@minicooper.org

There's a small event that happens twice a year at Poole Quay by where I live. There's often around 150 mini's round there, but because I've only been driving my mini a year I've only been to that twice! I wouldn't really class it as a proper event, so this will be my first proper event too! Is it wrong that I'm genuinely excited? Haha!

Poole Quay is on the Friday before Beaulieu, think of it as a starter before you move on to your main course on Sunday

[MiniSprite93]

Yeah definitely! Will be at both! Poole quay is always a good night, but really looking forward to Beaulieu!

I saw the Poole one advertised, I'll be in Bournemouth that weekend so I might pop over!

[Heather&Henrietta]

Poole Quay is a lovely little event. Get there as early as possible to get parked up on the best part of the Quay
