Had a great day out today at mini in the park, silverstone, saw loads of amazing minis. Didn't have too much time (or memory space) to take pics as my mate was buying up loads of cheap mini stuff. Here are the photos i did take though and I have some vids of Russ Swift (world record stunt driver) in the new mini convertible and an Evo, and a few beginnings of mini 0 - 60 sprints.... if anyone has any hosting space i could then post them here ;)

Very nice mini with 3/4 tone paint, chrome rims, zeemax body kit amazing sound system and very nice engine bay - although still only 1.3.

yeah a couple turbocharged, mostly were doing the 0 - 60 sprint. Fastest mini of the day did 0 60 in 4.66s i think - it was bike engined. The whole event is going to be broadcast on ITV's new car show (cant remember what its called) so if u ask nicely jabba might rip it for you ;)

First of all excellent pics, i guess the show you're talking about is Speed Sunday, quite a good programme, maybe vicki will do the programme :wink: And if jabba doesn't cap it i'll certainly try to :D

No idea mate, anyway any idea when the coverage will be aired? *Edit* the only guy i remember from deals on wheels was mike brewer, but he never did 5th gear as far as i know just driven. and the only other ITV car show i can think of is pulling power
