Irish Mini Owners Club

anybody up for this next year as i,m thinking of driving over and could do with a bit of advise from the seasoned imm,ers as regards booking and travel arrangements

Booking is no problem, you can now book on-line at http://www.imm2007.com it's €65 for the weekend and children under 13 are free, entry fee includes camping fee and a meal on the Saturday evening, plus of course the commemorative T-shirt.

Getting there all depends on how long you want to go for really, you can go the quick route via Esberge which has less driving but more ferry or go via France/Holland/Belgium/Germany/Denmark or whatever.

Ferry prices will be high as it's high season, but being an IMOC member will get you a preferential discount which will save you more than the cost of your yearly membership subscription, all the more reason to join really :-)

I'm sure there will be a good contingent going from the club, with a few different routes being chosen. So don't worry, we'll not let you get lost.

P.S. Ask Woody, ZakGT or BlackSe7en about the advantages of AA 5Star Euro Cover.

There is a lot of interest in this already.Most people talking about 2 or 3 week trip touring either Denmark-Germany, or Denmark- Sweden.
I'm hoping for a 3 week tour proberbly based around Germany.

For any of ye that haven't travelled abroad to an IMM, if you can get the time off at all, go for it. You get the best of Minis from all over Europe but more than that, it's a big party from start to finish. Over the years the Irish contingent have gotten to know Mini enthusiasts from Germany, Sweden, Finland, and the UK and once you get into the scene, you'll be well looked after.

Unlike a one-day show where everyone packs up and heads for home afterwards, an IMM usually starts on a Friday night and ends up Sunday.

With an IMM, imagine a convoy of Irish Minis at the ferry and then travelling across Europe. Forget Ryanair (Mick Leary, don't sue me), and bring your Mini to Europe.

Start saving your pennies. With the MTM and an IMM to go to, 2007 is going to be a busy year for the IMOC.

I'm very happy to see that some of you are thinking about coming to our Imm2007 in Denmark and we are looking forward to meeting you all

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask

And if anyone is wondering about Speed limits in Denmark ?
No problem, we have very good traffic signs that you can not miss

Thanks for the info on the speed signs Søren,

I don't believe that's the cops real name though.

hehe, I can see what you mean when I translate it
But actually it is a pretty common name in Denmark

KMG, it is well worth a trip to an IMM. It is a few years since i have been to one (Sweden in 95). Don't forget the AA cover for UK and Continental driving!

Glad I don't have Danish parents then

Just back from a little break in Copenhagen and I hope the weather is a whole lot better for the IMM than what we got,thank God for gortex is all I can say because it never stopped while we were there but still looking forward to my first IMM.

The mini,no longer available new in your local showroom.

hehe yea we have shity weather in Denmark right now, but in July it is going to absolutely fantastic weather, on the 27 of July this year we had 32°C nice warm and sunny summer

So you are guaranteeing sunny weather for the IMM then ?

hehe yes I will guarantee it, with all of thees beautiful small cars, god must be smiling at us and if not I'll buy you a beer

[if not I'll buy you a beer :wink:[/quote]

" you " means the Irish Mini Owners Club ??

I'll be there .

Unfortunately due to the B&B high season, I won't be able to make the IMM next year but the good news is that I have the pass for IMM2008 in Holland. Even better, I've just acquired the car to do it in. More anon. Have arranged a transporter this morning to collect it.

So thats one beer and 38 straws then please.

hehe woody, the reply was mend for "The Marcos Graveyard" or I could be very poor (how many IMOC members will you guess are coming ?)
But still 95% chance of Super sunny weather in July

Well I hope to make it my first IMM.

Are you looking at my pint ?

So far I've heard of about 9 serious cars heading for Denmark.Most are making it there family holiday taking 2 to 3 weeks. Most plans include either southern Sweden or northern Germany and of course Legoland. I'll be there.

I will not be spending2-3 weeks over there because we are heading to disney in Orlando so it will be 2 days travelling,the IMM itself and 2 days getting home and maybe a holiday to get over that trip.

The mini,more than just a brand.

You forgot to include breakdown time!!

Sounds good Woody

We have now made a new feature on the website where you can upload a picture of your Mini, so everyone can see some of the nice Mini's that are coming, so If you are coming and you have a picture of your Mini, please upload it

I went to book my tickets for the IMM today, the paypal option on the IMM website isn't working, so I decided to do it via International Bank Transfer, I got the IBAN number and bank details from the web, but could not find a name for the account, my branch, AIB in Longford would not accept the Payment Application without this, has anyone else had this problem ?

I'll try to find some info and let you all know.

Neil.

I'm very sorry that our PayPal is not working at the moment (we are working on a solution)
Hope that you will find out how to transfer, our account name is "IMM 2007"
sorry for the inconvenience it may cause..
