2004 was at silvertstone for the 45th anniversary
2005 was at that show ground
It was there a couple years iirc
Then moved to santapod it must have been at santapod in 2008 because i went in my mkiv supra
Thinking about it though it must have been at santapod the year before because thats when i blew my first turbo engine
so 2007 must have been the first year at santapod

Yes i moved to the darkside *happy*

Cornbury park was great. Santa Pod was OK to start with but has got a bit stale. Last couple of times we've been home for lunch!

Going to miss it this year as I'm off to France to compete in a cycling World Championship!

It's blue and I've offended enough people already by posting pictures on Facebook.

I remember cornbury park. It was a good static show if that is what you are into.

I don't know if the shows are going stale or we are getting bored of the scene?

Last time I went I only came away with some new head lights and collected a cylinder head from a member on here. Other than that meeting some of you which I only get to do at shows is the only advantage to me for going. And you see the same cars time after time winning trophy from the same competitors. Ill not be going

Come on Dave! If there was no new minis at mitp I would guess it would be over, as there was not very many classic minis there.

Plus I like them for what they are, however I did think they missed a trick they should of let all the minis in to park inside the show like Beaulieu mini only parking it soon makes the show much bigger.

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

I went every year from 1999 to 2013 but haven't been since. To many new Minis now and they don't interest me.
I remember going to Conbury Park in 99 and being blown away by the scale of it. The camping area was Minis as far as the eye could see and the atmosphere was fantastic. I also went to the 40th celebrations at Silverstone the weekend after and that was amazing. Something I'll never forget.

BMC raffled off 'choice' of a mk1 Bini or mk4 Mini at Bingley show in January. An indicator of things to come!!!

I'm with Simon, without the new Minis the show would be dead, but at the same time it did take the piss sticking all the old minis at the far end of the pits. Felt like a new mini show behind the grandstand.

I was impressed how well the older minis held up against the new minis on the drag strip.

Yes i dont get it because most nice minis were in next to the dodgems, in the camp or in the general parking!?!? They definitely had space to take all of them! Id rather a shitty populated mini show than walking thru seas of to me the same bini over n over again
