A very happy Dave Rippard wins Mini Of The Day at Stanford Hall in the Mequiars sponsored Premier Concours with his superb MK1 1959 Mini. This will now represent the Mini marque on the Mequiars Stand at the NEC Classic Car Show later this year in November. We think he has a pretty good chance of winning the top trophy at the NEC. Some very strong competition in the Concours and our judges yet again had a tough time, and good to see the return of one our top judges Oliver Bryant, took him 4 hours to judge 9 cars. It was an incredible sight to see all the Concours entrants parked on the lawns in front of the Hall. We believe this is the first time this ever happened at this event over the years. A massive thank you to the Lord for allowing this to happen.
All 1st and 2nd place trophy winners were awarded with an excellent Mequiars pack. We also say thank you to them for continued sponsorship of this event. All class winners go through to the Premier Concours Final and a chance to win a share of £1000 plus the silver trophy at Mini Fair in January 2020.
A massive Show N Shine entry from both the Classic and Modern Mini scene, close on 100 Mini’s on display, difficult to pick 2 from each class for Dave Webb, the judge, as all were top quality.
A fantastic display by over 40 Mini Clubs from across the country with many taking part in the Italian Job theme. Well done to all taking part and congratulations to the winners.
