British Invasion 2007

Posted on by Ian C.

British Invasion 2007 returned to the “old field” this year, and so returned to the ludicrous mud field conditions that we suffered in 2005; I realize the field doesn’t actually create the weather, but it’s still not fun when the field looks like this as you arrive on Saturday morning:

Maybe an asphalt parking lot would be better! At least a clean GPMINI wouldn’t get turned into an off-roader:

Anyway, even in the wet & mud, it was a fun day due to having Margaret, lots of MINIs and lots of MINI friends 🙂

 

 

Five MINIs on Jason’s drive (with him leading in his brand new ’07) – we even were joined by a Red Bull MINI for a short time:

 

Better weather on Sunday:

Jason gets an ’07 MCS

MINI friend Jason has owned an early build VR MC since 2002 – he has more than 110,000 miles on that car and tracks it regularly. Unfortunately he recently tracked it just a little bit too hard and it suffered, leaving it currently un-driveable.
Since it was his daily driver too, Jason urgently needed a new car and thankfully stayed in the MINI family, buying this ’07 MCS ex-demo car from MINI of Peabody:

 

Congratulations, Jason!
