Welcome to the Irish Mini Owners Club forum. Celebrating 30 years of the Irish Mini Owners Club, 60 years of the Mini, 50 years of the Clubman and 20 years of our flagship event MTM
I got an email from Peter Isselmann from Bremen in Germany, he has produced an enamel badge to celebrate 50 years of the Mini, these are to attach to your grill similar to the old AA type badge.
The badges cost €25 each and postage to Ireland would be only €3.00, he says that if we order 10 badges then the cost would only be €20 each.
Here is what they look like,
and here is Peter fitting it to a friends Mini, this service is free if you bring the car to Peter.
If anyone is interested, just let me know and I'll sort out the details for you.

Our greatest achievement is not in never breaking down, but in fixing it every time we do.

I asked Peter that very question when he emailed me first , he says that he would need to make a new pattern and would need an order of 100 badges to cover costs.

Hi all of you, first of all I say thanks to all the people contacting me personally and ordered my MINI badge or badges. Second is the question about producing a badge for your club. Will be a great honour to do that so if anybody can post me a PDF with the emblem in this weekend I will find out up to end of next week a price for you. Did that for the Austin Healey Club of Japan last year and the price and the quality for their club badge was so good that they ve ordered 200. But you can get an interesting price from 50 badges upwards.
Let me know.
MINI Regards
Peter
