Irish Mini Owners Club

And as I sat in mc donalds in Fontenay Le Comte making use of thier free wifi while eating a big mac 'bestof' I spotted a nice red mini with twin dtm and superlites fly by. The same red as Madjackjnr's mini. Real nice looking machine.

Spooted this in the Woodies/Lidl carpark in tallaght last weekend.

Also saw a black mini out of the corner or my eye coming down ballymount road or whatever the road alongside the luas is called the other day, it was stuck in traffic heading to the belgard road. black with silver arches i think.

Was up in Rally School Ireland on Saturday and spotted this in the garage.

Had a great day up there, well worth a visit.

A Mini overtook me on the N11 today...... sticking to the speed limits Can't remember the colour or year or anything except it was a Mini! I so stunted how fast s/he overtook me I couldn't pay attention! It looked bogo in the rear view but was clearly a sleeper!

I think black or maybe dark navy ?


@gareth, don't think its a mini thats used. I'd say a studio prop.

Yip, it's a white clubby that lives in a photo studio in town. Ive got loads more shots of it from the meteor shoot. It's been in a couple of different ads, not just meteor.

why not shtick one or two shots of it up here Maxi

Just seen a red 96 Copper sitting Shankill village 5mins ago. Had a Japo plate on the back!

Seen this yesterday:





Has a nice home at the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum. Would highly recommend this museum to anyone that is or will be travelling in or around the Belfast area.

Seena 97 B.R.G yesterday in Foxrock and seen Keith in his 93 Cooper at Bakers corner, flashed, waved, hung out the window but you didn't see me!

i'd ignore ya aswell
