MINIsOnTop 2004 – The Convertible

Back from MINIsOnTop [MOT2004] which was even more spectacular than last year, with more than 160 MINIs and some very exhilarating weather! Unfortunately we did have some extreme rain but mostly it stopped raining when we needed to be outside.
I have many pictures – mostly taken by my lovely wife Margaret (thank you!) while I was busy assisting in the running of the event. Tonight, I am only posting pictures of the BRG MINI Cooper Convertible which was brought up by Gerry and Giselle from MINI USA – I thank them both very much for attending our event and making it even more special.

 

And look at this – while we were at MINIsOnTop, Gabe Bridgers MotoringFile announced 2005 pricing, including the convertible:
Base prices remain the same:
2005 MINI Cooper: $16,449
2005 MINI Cooper S: $19,899
2005 MINI Cooper Convertible: $20,950
2005 MINI Cooper S Convertible: $24,400
Destination and Handling for all models: $550

MINIs On Top 2004 – almost here!

This weekend Margaret & I headed up to Franconia Notch in New Hampshire, close to where MINIsOnTop will soon occur. This is a favourite place with great scenery and also great pancakes, bacon and maple spread at Pollys Pancake Parlor.
Today before heading home we drove the Kancamagus Highway from end to end – most of it will be driven again with 125 other MINIs in three weeks!
