Having debuted in 2000 between Edinburgh and St.Andrews then Loch Lomond to Dunoon in 2001 and in 2002 with our Edinburgh (Dalkeith) to Eyemouth route, The Mini Clan are proud to present our fourth Thistle Run route - Stirling to Oban.

Starting in historic Stirling, the route will take you through some of the very best scenery Scotland has to offer with a variety of entertaining driving. The Run will finish in the very centre of beautiful Oban, by special arrangement with the town council. We will also be recreating our amazing Mini 'cavalcade' of last year through Oban town centre, before parking up and closing the day with a Show and Shine. Refreshments and facilities will be available along with the full range of services which Oban has to offer.

Show and Shine categories this year are:-
Car of the Run, Best MINI, Loudest Exhaust, Best Car 59-69, Dodgiest MOT, Rustiest A Panel, Best Car 70-79, Tackiest Accessory, Wettest Carpet (if raining!), Best Car 80-89, Most Body Filler, Most original Paint Job, Best Car 90-00, Biggest Oil Leak, Sound Off

Entry closes May 1, 2003 but if your entry is received before the end of March, you save £2.50 on the normal entry fee of £12.50. You are only sure of a runpack if you return the entry fee and form before this date. In that case you will receive a full information pack and runcard by the second week of May. The Run will be limited to 130 Minis. You can enter the Run on the day, assuming we are not fully booked, but you will receive NO discount and NO Runpack (unless we have any spare packs).

We look forward to welcoming you on May 25th!
