Mini in the Park 2002

 

On Sunday 18th August 2002, the Oxfordshire countryside became overrun with Minis. Every type of Mini and Mini derivative assembled for the Mini equivalent of the Teddy Bears Picnic near Charlsbury. Team 64 was there as well, the Mini Marcos being one of the featured cars on the Mini Magazine stand (who had also organised this event). Here is the photographic evidence:

 

Dawn over the Field

 

Dawn on Sunday – no-one should ever have to witness this time on a Sunday.

 

A solitary Marcos, waiting developments.

 

The Marcos awaiting the arrival of, well, everyone else. You can almost hear it yawning (or was that the cameraman?).

 

The beginnings of a 2 mile queue of Minis.

 

And then the flood gates opened, and they started to arrive…

 

More Minis.

 

…and kept arriving.

 

Early line up shot.

 

So we waited, and were joined by a grey Mini Van…

 

Later line-up shot.

 

…and rather a lot of other Minis as well.
