Cars & Coffee Harry Fairbairn Kirkcaldy Sunday 18th November

[MINI William]

We have been invited to attend the garage for a Cars and Coffee to have a catch up with some Tea, Coffee and more importantly CAKE.

What’s more exciting though is that the garage will have all 3 of the new spec cars there for us to see, discuss and drive.

Its a great chance for everyone to get to catch up or if your new to the forum a great way for you to put a face to a name. As always everyone is welcome.

The plan will be to meet about 11.15 at Ferry Toll Park & Ride to head up to HF for 12. Have a chat, eat cake, have a look at the new cars and have the usual carry on.

I’ll have them with me. Is there any specific colour just so I can make sure I’ve got it with me

[MINI William]

For anyone wanting to test drive one of the cars can you please bring your Driving License with you. I’ll post up some other details as well once they have been finalised

First post updated with meeting details for Sunday

[elgassi]

should make this meet :thumbs up:

anyone else Passing Perth I can meet them and convoy down to Ferry Toll Park & Ride :yes nod:

[Twisterboy]

Ferrytoll works for me, only about 5 mins from my inlaws so I know it well.

Davy

[MINI William]

Great folks. Looking forward to it

[MINI William]

Just a reminder that because this is a Cars and Coffee meet, don’t think that you can’t come if you’ve tucked your MINI up in the garage. You can bring your other pride and joy

[Twisterboy]

Do you really want to see a poverty spec Skoda Fabia?? If I had the alloys on it still then maybe, but since getting the Mini I put it back to standard for my wife to potter about in.

Nothiny wrong with the Fabia but we would prefer the MINI

Here’s a couple of sneaky photos of the Fabia, outside burns cottage when it had been modified, and the other picture is a couple of days before I picked it up and how it looks now.

Thank you to eveyone who made it along to todays Cars and Coffee Meet, it was nice to see so many faces along with a few new faces who fitted in straight away and I hope that we will see you again at a meet soon. Also a huge thank you to Adam and Charmaine for hosting today. It was a nice relaxed day and great to get my head round MINI's new model structure, hopefully it works out.

Fantastic day, and good to meet you all and put faces to usernames and thanks to the team at Harry Fairburn for hosting, looking forward to the Xmas meet now. Stil confused with the new way Mini are doing things, like mats costing £900 as a option in a comfort pack, if you want it in a sport pack. Got to admit the Countryman I test drive is a big step up compared to my R56, not very Mini like to drive but does ooze quality and luxury and first auto I have driven in a year, if I was looking to replace my family car in a couple of years a Countryman will be a contender or a Clubman. Did anyone get stuck on the A92 on the way back? I managed to come off at Lochgelly and got lost until I found Cowdenbeath.

Had a lovely day as always with the NMS fam. It was little Arwen’s first Mini Meet and I think she loved all the attention! Thanks to Harry Fairbairn for the great grub, a bit of competition with prizes and rundown of the new structure although a tad confusing for me lol

[EcosseGP]

Well another fun afternoon at HF. Thanks to everyone at HF and MINI for their generous hospitality !

It was great to catch up with everyone that made it along (great effort Mark) ... and of course it was great to meet Arwin. Also good to see some old regulars put in an appearance !

I suppose it came at a great time for me, as I hate keeping secrets, so the new MINI addition was taken along to show to those that were in an attendance.

Sorry for being a bit later than expected and I’ll read up on the new spec / trim levels when I get a chance. Well done to those that won a prize for their studying (or some called it cheating).

I suppose I better get back to starting a post about the new machine ...

Thanks William for putting it all together ...

... lastly and by no means least, Christina I’m still jealous of your latest purchase lol [emoji13]
