I live in W.A and was wondering about the mini club in WA, whats the advantage of joining. I am only on my L plates at the moment so no point joining until I have P's which hopefully is around October  .
I just want to meet more mini owners and people that my want to teach me a few things and us me for heavy lift etc  Also I wouldn't mind some help down the track with my mini.
Thanks Ian

I used to be a member of the Mini Owners club many many moons ago, but unfortunately I was living in Albany down south at the time. That meant the only time I could really see them was at the "Round The Houses" classic car rally. As a result I left the club and never got around to joining again. Now I'm living in Perth and close to having my Mini running again I'm thinking about re-joining. I'm sure I will in the near future, it's just a matter of getting out from under my Mini and signing the bits of paper

I don't think they have a web site, but here is their contact Ph 9276 5665 I joined the SDMC a year ago, they are socially oriented & have had some great events and met many mini/moke nuts http://www.sdminiclub.org.au/ It is too far from you, but it gives you an idea. I intend joining the Mini Car Club too, with an eye to doing some motor sports. The MOA is more into shows & restorations, but the clubs usually extend invitations to the others for most events. |

The perks of joining any car club is the community of like minded people you get to know. Those that can say "come round saturday afternoon and i will show you how to do that" or "I have a spare one you can have". You also get to know people who have been directly or indirectly involved with minis since they first came out in Australia. A lot of us have actually had spanners on every single nut and bolt on a mini over many years and can save you a lot of time and money, by advice, when you need to repair something. Added to that, clubs give you the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of events that vary from outright competition to social cruises and shows. Its very foolish to have a mini and not be a club member. |

you and me both Mike. he he. whens our drag meet going to happen??? lol I'm a memeber of the mini owners club. problem is i dont get the chance to get to many meets. from what ive heard is that the best thing is the knowledge base. like Ausmini there are a lot of mini enthusiasts out there with a love like all of us for mini's. my advice is join the club, on L Plates or not. get a parent to drive you to the meets you want to participate in. or drive with ya parent. good driving experience. |

You can pick up an application at Minicraft, ontop of the drinks fridge Other than that I'm not too sure. I think I'll pick up a form when I go in there sometime this week.
