With the amount of shows and events that are on during the "Summer "season, it was inevitable that there would be some clashes along the way.
While Mosney is a Vintage show, National Mini Day is "THE" day for Minis in the country, cars from all over , representing all the major Mini Clubs in Ireland will be there, all vieing for the Tom Gill Perpetual Trophy, a cup given to the owner of the car that the people decide is the best car in the show. There are also concourse competitions, Mini traders, autojumble, raffles, auctions and side shows to keep you entertained.

It shouldn't be too hard to decide which is the better event. :wink:

I agree with TMG. Mosney is a great event but the National Mini Day is what it says on the tin!

Hope to see a lot of refreshed MTM-ers there.

Begod, that's reverse psychology for ye! Ah no, I've decided not to bring it and give the rest of ye a chance. I'd say myself your own Mk2 could be in with a shout.

Also, I'm officially not a judge this year so I'll have to find other sources of funding for the day!

I'll still be going to the show in galway.

I've been to both shows and while the mosney show is good, there's still no comparison to a show dedicated to minis.
