Classic Mini on Frozen Lake

Who knew driving a Classic Mini on a frozen lake would be this much fun! I stud the tires on my 1966 Austin Mini and take it on the ice. Had a blast. Stay till the very end of the video to see drone footage! Thanks for watching!

They're made to be driven! Great video man

What a fun video! Gotta’ get my Mini’s back on the road! Just had a crazy snow storm and I’m fantasizing about some real competition-spec mud-and-snow rally tires!

So weird Yokohama 032R's dont grip in snow 😂😂😂😂 Personally prefer the look of the car with the Mamba 6x10 over the common as muck rosepetal's 😉

Beautiful drone shots with lovely soundtracks, very well done. What a beautiful place for a very nice little car. Great video. I enjoyed it from start to finish.

[@davidsgarage]

Thank you! That’s good to hear!

[@markschraider]

Awesome video ! Really envious, and would love to give that a go 😀

[@davidsgarage]

It was so much fun!

[@TornadoCAN99]

There's an ice racing series here in BC where a few classic mini's run. Getting more difficult to have thick enough ice these days.

Haha David, love this! Swear we live similar lives on different continents. I took a classic mini on an African rally last month. Check it out!

😵 I feel dizzy now...lol That looks like too much fun brother 😁👍 I'm not much of a car guy (like being able to get out in the woods & such, in my ol' Jeep XJ to much) but that's one car I've always wanted for just cruising around on the Ol' crooked blacktop roads in Missouri. Got to ride in one & drive it once. It was like a gokart, so much fun in the corners... Great video... And as I tell my wheel'n brothers and sisters in the offroad community..... Keep the tires aimed towards the ground and all eyes upon the Lord 😁👍

What an inspiration to anyone who owns one!

[@thatdudeinorange2297]

Some say these little cars are great for winter driving. Heck, rumours has it they won lots of rally's back in the day. Even the Monte Carlo Rally 😉 four years in a row, right?!! Citroen might not agree.

[@MiniMattTV]

Thanks man!

[@cree_lp3022]

What seats do you have in the car?

[@davidsgarage]

Good question! They are from MiniSpares. Believe they are called the classic low back.

[@EraOfFreestyle]

Loved this!!

[@Darrenfive0]

Looks an absolute blast👍👍

[@aleddavies770]

I'm in the Uk. Can you use metric tools on a car like this or is it imperial?

[@ethelmini]

All imperial back then. After WW2 British manufacturers were still using US specification fasteners that were adopted to rationalise war production. The US was virtually the only market where they could sell cars straight after the war anyway.

Rear tyres size??
