It happened today, Oct. 7/03: The Italian Job DVD MINI Convoy through downtown Toronto at noon!

Our 45+ MINI count controlled Toronto's main drag for 1.5 hours.

See the MINIamazing MINI Parade video NOW!

Enjoy.

We were part of the parade.

It was hard to tell who was having more fun us (the MINI drivers) or the police officers escorting us through downtown Toronto.

BTW everyone in the parade recieved a copy of the Italian Job DVD.

Great video Robert a good time was had by all

Fantastic video!

Thanks for organizing the event Robert! I can't think of a better way to go AWOL from work than motoring from Detroit to participate as MINI #10 (DS/W w/o front license plate) in such a fantastic event.

I had a great time chatting with everyone and raising a MINI ruckus during the lunch hour.

Paramount needs to do a TIJ sequel so we can do it again next year!

Motor on,
Dave

We've obtained the Toronto evening TV news coverage. It'll be running permanently on MINImeet.ca soon!

Not a bad little archive: The Wolfe Island Canada MINImeet Slide Show, The IJ DVD Convoy Video, and the TV news coverage - all on one little web site in the corner of the Internet (where the MINIacs are!).

What's next?
