Irish Mini Owners Club

can I suggest, people get on the ferry with a full tank, so that, when we get off we can make the same distance before needing fuel, which will reduce the number of petrol stops and safe a lot of time.

FYI, A few of us are planning to stay in Amiens on the Wednesday night, which is nearly half way to Lommel from Cherbourg. It seems to have a good campsite that also has cabins for rent for non campers, and some hotels in the town. There is a river side bar and restaurant area, so it could be a nice...

Ryanair Friday 13th midday and returning Sunday morning 11:00 - However there is An Aer lingus flight back from Brussels on Sunday evening - shop around as the flight sales are on and with the rail network across Europe maybe there are other airports that could suite your time off.

I haven't sorted ferries yet but just booked Cathy flights Dublin to Einhoven return with RyanAir for €62.

Welcome to getting an MPI through the NCT, I usually now put a post-it with an arrow and VIN on it, on the scuttle panel when doing the NCT, after on instance when it was listed as one of the fails on the car. I have also had fails regarding: - missing the split pins on the ball joints; and - the bl...

Killian,

There doesn't seem to be much interest in this post, Lucan must be still too far outside the M50 for the Dubs.

I'll be there. anyone else willing to commit?

Ordered some of the nighshirts yesterday morning, they were delivered this morning.

Lads, It been hard to figure what to wear for this, but the Irish gang should be seen to be up for a bit a craic. How about old style long nightshirts and hats? https://leevalleyireland.com/shop/irish-sleepwear/lee-valley-flannel-nightshirt/ Lee Valley Ireland will discount them for us, €25 incl the...

Lads, Most of you have ordered 1 t-shirt each, it is going to be a long weekend, with the idea of promoting the bid and letting all know that there are plenty of Irish at the IMM, if we can make to there, they can make to Ireland in 2017. There is also a tradition at IMM of swapping t-shirts. Maybe ...

Noel, I have had my MPI since new in 1998 and the first thing I had to replace was the Rover backbox, it rusted within 2 years, so I suggest not replacing it with another Rover one. All the UK mini shops stock aftet market replacements. If you have time, I suggest you go around and listen to sound o...

I also have my minis covered with Autoline a 62,78 and 98, but it is a shared 5,000 limit across them.
Autoline is the broker the policy is underwritten by Allizance, I also confirmed with them that the breakdown covers both RoI and UK.

I think the statistics on the number of accidents involving NCT excempt cars is key peice of missing data here, why go through all the trouble, if it is not a problem in the first place. Personally I know my driving style is different when driving my 1962 Mini compared to driving my 1998.

Reminder, this Thursday, Newbridge.

Provisionally sold, it's heading back to the UK.

Sean,
