Hi Guys Just a reminder

John and Andrew are having an open day for Ausmini and anyone else today, Meet and greet make some new contacts. Everything discounted lucky door prize. Talk with John about how the business is changing. BBQ sausage lunch at 12 open from 9. if you can't make lunch come earlier and have a chat and a good price on that needed or wanted part.

See you there.

Even if you don't need anything come down to 80 Gibson road Padstow and say hi to other mini enthusiasts

Steve

yeh looked like a great turn out, thanks heaps.. Seemed to be alot of cash changing hands and great prices on all gear. Spent about $150 there and the things i got would have been over $200 easy a week ago :D

Will get back out there when i need parts in the future.

Yep was a good day- we got a few things for Barney, including a pair of Koni rear shocks. Might get some fronts too depending on their pricing... :P

John was really happy you guys turned up and got the chance to speak with him and Andrew and talk about the changes that are going on.

I hope people introduced themselves to John who was kept busy most of the day and I saw Andrew having a chat to most people who were there.

Over the next few weeks we'll watch prices come down and new stock come in. Personally an A+ motor would do me nicely. I also got an offer for our grey Austin but I'm rather attached to it.

It was good to see Graeme Russel turn up and spend the day there aswell

I saw some people get some real bargains it was certainly the day for it. Czerial, Viv got a new interior and Greg who bought her will keep her name.

Andrew was a great bloke a straight talker who like the rest of us lives eats and breaths minis.

John will be having another discount day for the MCC which will be posted aswell so if you missed something today come back for the next. Photos will be posted tomorrow.

Cheers and thanx to everyone who made it a success

Steve

Austin car club now has her and is very happy with her. She was a great clubby

and hopefully see the new interior!!!
