Stanford Hall Mini Show 2024
Check out my latest video as I visit Stanford Hall Mini Show 2024
A great day out with a huge selection of classic minis and also a fair amount of the bmw mini
Loads of traders selling classic mini products so it’s worthwhile a good look around
My favourite part of the day was the exhaust competition to see who has the loudest exhaust
Please give the video a thumbs up and if you can please subscribe to the channel

    Was at this show. Third year in a row. We are stood in the crowd where the purple shorty Mini pulled up, during the competition. Thankfully there were more cars this year, BUT I feel they shouldn't allow those hideous new "minis", which are as close to a Mini as a Transit van. Bloody awful now. I went a couple of times a few years back, before the BMW Mini was around and it was a great show then
