Latest News on British Mini Fair 2009

Calling all ex-Austin workers.

Here at the British Mini Club we are trying to locate as many Ex-Austin Workers who help produce the Mini at Longbridge as we can. We would like to invite them to all of our events during 2009. We aim to create photographs with some early Minis from our 1959 Mini Register that will have special displays at all BMC events.

If you know of anyone that worked with the Mini please pass on details onto them. Contact the BMC HQ on 01384 897779.

First sighting of W&P Margrave 50

The Wood & Pickett Margrave 50 has recently had its first sighting on display at the open day at Wood & Picketts new Mini Heritage Centre. This Mini is one of only 50 brand new classic Minis being produced by W&P and nobody has seen the road going version yet. Although we must say we love the red that has been used. It just looks so deep on the heritage shell

However you can see the completed version of this unique and very collectable Mini at British Mini Fair 2009.
