Bienvenidos Carlos

Me parece que tu grupo paso un dia muy padre, como dicen los Mexicanos. Great to hear from MINI owners all around the world. This car is phenomenal in its universal appeal. Keep us updated as to the goings on in Spain.

Cual modelo tienes, MC o MCS? Lots of us modify our cars here, how about in Spain? Do you improve performance of the engine and suspension?

Ciao,

MGC

Un placer muy grande tenerte por aca en NAM!

Gracias por compartir las fotos de tu club. Donde estas localizado? Madrid o Barcelona?

Si algun dia vienes a visitar a Miami, no olvides pasar por nuestro club local de Minis/MINIS: www.minisofmiami.com En la galeria de miembros, podras ver fotos de mis 2 MINIs. Tambien alli encontraras un forum dedicado y el calendario de actividades del club. Tenemos una combinacion de BMC/Rover Minis clasicos, Inocentis, Austins y nuevos BMW MINIs.

Nuevamente bienvenido! Necesitamos mas gente aqui que hable en castellano.

The Club is located in Madrid and we are almost 100 members, in one month. Here in Europe there are lots of Mini Clubs, but in Spain, like many other countries, there are none.

TodoMini is the first club in Spain and we want to make a big Club and we will hopefully double the number for the next meeting. We will probably meet another Club in Portugal, so we are more people assisting.

In Spain, there is not much passion for Mini, but I think with this type of clubs and activities, we will persuade lots of people.

I hope you liked the video !!

Carlos

It is because historically Spaniards never been into British cars?

(Love the pics by the way! I have been to Europe but never to Spain, yet).

Thank you for the pictures, I wonder why the mini isn't popular in spain. Spain is motorcycle crazy and driving a mini is as much fun as riding a motorcycle, at least in my opinion. I hope your club grows as you wish, it certainly looks like the fun has already started. My mcs is cosmo black with a white top, racing stripes and rear view mirrors. I find it very hard to keep clean but I love it when is all shiny. Buena suerte Carlos Y saludos a tu club desde el nuevo mundo.

Thanks to all for your messages !!!

In UK or Germany, Mini is very popular, there are many Clubs, fans, etc. but here in Spain is starting to become popular and there are many Mini´s over here.

With TodoMini, we will persuade all this people to join the club, go to the meetings, use the forum, upload pictures, etc.

salu2 (regards)

Carlos
