Dear everyone,
A few friends of mine organize the Imm 2011, here in Switzerland.
I just wanted to prevent that subscriptions are opened on the IMM website
http://www.imm2011.org/
Is anyone coming? It's such a nice place to discover!
Any traders?
I'll be there with my Moke, as it's not so far from home this time!
Hope to see you there!
Here is a picture of my Moke, two weeks ago!
Kind regards!

That is an excellent photo Romag, just wish I had a Mini on the road to attend the meeting.

This is very tempting. first I'll work on Suzy, then you when you're drunk Mark!
I'm thinking Nimbus!! Would look like James Bond with Skis on the roof (although I guess ther'll be no snow in June.

It clashes with the National Cooper Day at Beaulieu, so I'm sure a lot of people will split between the two events

I'm going over with a group of Innocenti owners. Tim who bought my old Inno Cooper a few years ago is letting me drive it there and back, maybe via the Nurburgring too, can't wait!!!

We will be giving it a miss i'm sorry to say. The only time we missed an MCR day since 1984 was when it clashed with the IMM in Lido Pomposa, Italy and I said at the time that we would go to Beaulieu if they ever clashed again. Secondly, with Switzerland not being in the EU we would have problems at the border if we tried to get in with a van full of Min-e-Bitz.

Although Switzerland is very tempting, the cost of my ongoing restoration means that its Beaulieu this year for me too. I hope you have a cracking time though as i'm sure you will

Yes, I know it clashes with Beaulieu, that's such a shame...
Anyway, I'm glad to hear that some of you is coming!
If you wish to come to Switzerland once, especially in winter, my dad organizes the "Mini Winter Rally"

Not as glamorous as the Monte Historic, but it's stil good fun!
You can find the picture here

Sadly, it is full house this year! Maybe next year!
