Wow what an amazing road trip! Great weather, wonderful scenery, brilliant Minis, what more could you want? And like you, I'd love an Inno Cooper Export in Rosso red!!

[@peterobrien3539]

Awesome video, thanks for sharing your weekend. Mini heaven in the sun, perfect.

[@SimpsonsClassics]

No worries Peter. Glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@rennkafer13]

That looks like it was a wonderful time and about the perfect weather. Until recently I didn't know this event even existed, now I have to add it to the "things I must do" list.

[@SimpsonsClassics]

It was a great break it really was. It’s all about the drive out I believe so very excited for Germany next year. Definitely try and make the event one day.

[@davidmartin6735]

thank U 4 sharing .. L👀ked an amazing 🏕site & location ⛱ .. .. 🤔so is the Van jumping the Q 😂

[@SimpsonsClassics]

No worries! Oh I wish it could do. Got to many cars that aren’t mine in the way first 🤣

[@Car_and_classic_lover]

That looked like an amazing event! Some incredible Minis there. I can't believe how far some cars have travelled! Love that steering wheel as well, that will look amazing on the Van. Thanks for sharing👍

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Thanks yes some awesome cars there for sure. Some absolute minters to all done mad milage to be there. I can’t wait to start my van but first need to clear the workshop out. 👍

[@Mrtom248]

Great video. Some stunning minis and stunning scenery. Thanks for sharing.

[@philhuggett4776]

God damn this makes me want to get my mini done asap! I'm a truck driver and saw a load of classic beauties on the A2 yesterday, straight off the ferry from Dover I'd guess. 👍

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Oh yeah I bet you saw loads of them around there. Definitely get it done Germany next year 👍

[@philhuggett4776]

@@SimpsonsClassics that's a tall order I think.! I don't work as fast (hard) as you!! 😁

[@SimpsonsClassics]

@@philhuggett4776 aha I wish I going get mine done faster. Bloody real life kicks in!

[@recreativesigns4571]

Looks amazing out there. That bonnet scoop looked like a door card storage pocket on the red car you pointed out ear the start of the video.

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Haha yes it was we spoke to the owner later during the event it’s literally a door bin 🤣

[@recreativesigns4571]

@@SimpsonsClassics I thought so. Question is did the vent, vent or was the bonnet not cut into.

[@SimpsonsClassics]

@@recreativesigns4571 think the bonnet was cut into.

[@adrianwilcock7523]

Definitely doing IMM in Germany next year, be great to have a convoy from the North west!!

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Sounds good! I know a few cars leaving the north west, we are planning a nice route out to see things along the way.

[@adrianwilcock7523]

@@SimpsonsClassics Excellent, hopefully a good convoy can be organised

[@lonmar2645]

Long drives with straight cut drops are not too bad, they are great fun and make an amazing noise around the back roads. I'd have them again in a heartbeat

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Do it and come to Germany!

[@ClassicMiniProjectsUSA]

The mini at 5:45 with the flowers on it. Is Mike Guido he is one of our American Parts suppliers super nice guy

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Yes I believe so seemed a nice chap but didn’t get it meet him properly. Cheers for watching 👍

[@georgeclements2742]

I like the look of the trailer made from the back end of a Mini. I'm sure that you could use one of those, provided that it didn't mean using good parts that could be used in a restoration. Regards.

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Oh yeah for sure i actually made one many years back before the channel really got going. Sold it then it got painted pink and towed around by a vw t2 aha

[@aslandama]

You really know your minis.

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Thanks I don’t know as much as some but do love these little cars. 👍

[@velmathemini]

Italy looks good this time of the year 😍. Thanks for June's minimine code, got my ebay order ready to order tomorrow. Just waiting for confirmation I've got the right parts for my year 😊. Ps that holiday park looks 👌 🔥 especially full of Minis 😍.

[@SimpsonsClassics]

It was awesome thanks buddy. Nice one thanks for using that. Hopefully you can keep pushing along after once you receive your new parts.

[@mcalvert39]

That minimine shirt looks good on you 😄

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Gee thanks 👍

[@graemew7001]

Must have felt awesome not to be rained out like the UK one was, mind even though it rained then it still looked like an awesome event. I'm not sure if my ginger skin could cope with the 28 degree heat tho, would have needed a bucket of factor 50!!

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Haha yeah the weather was stunning it really was.

[@johndaly2180]

Wow 😍 looked fantastic .. fair play to the guy who gave you a lift .. some amazing cars there and definitely a chance to recharge the batteries mate . Never seen an innocetti up close before . The steering wheel was a great find . Gives you the boost now to make a start on the van

[@SimpsonsClassics]

I know the guy was mint for doing that. So nice to see some fresh new minis to the scene and it’s definitely given me loads of inspiration. Cheers I have wanted that steering wheel for five years now ever since I bought my van.

[@johndaly2180]

@@SimpsonsClassics I honest to god can't wait for you to dig into that van .. I know it's on a long list but will be absolutely amazing when it's done

[@SimpsonsClassics]

@@johndaly2180 thanks mate well the plan is to get the cars out the workshop now and get stuck into that

[@IrieRedGnome]

What's the link to the British Mini traveling thru the Alps, mentioned in beginning

[@SimpsonsClassics]

No link just some video sent between friends of that Morris Cooper with some other cars coming through the alps

[@Fourwheeledfarming]

Innocenti minis have the best dial setups

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Stunning set up isn’t it

[@scottb926]

Like the white tee you have on. One of your own?

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Hey no it just has an a-series engine on it. Maybe something for the future..

[@Dkmode1]

​@@SimpsonsClassicsIs it available somewhere? It's awesome!

[@SimpsonsClassics]

@@Dkmode1 I have tried to find the company. I don’t think they exist now. I won that white shirt in a competition.

[@scottb926]

Dread the recovery cost to get back home. Don't think I've done more than 40 miles in 1 drive in my mini :L

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Have faith aha
