In photos and video: 60 Minis converge on Brent Knoll for car festival

-

Over 60 Mini owners from across the South West gathered their vehicles in Brent Knoll on Sunday (September 25th) for a unique festival and a procession.

The Mini Show took place at Sanders Garden World in aid of a local charity.

During the day, visitors were able to look over the cars and talk to their owners before the vehicles processed out of the cente (see video) for an escorted convoy to Cheddar and back.

All proceeds from the event were raised for Freewheelers EVS, a charity that transports items on specially adapted motorcycles from hospital to hospital in Somerset and beyond.

The charity’s Allan Roberts added: “This is the first time we’ve held a Mini Show and it was a great success. The wet weather at the start of the day reduced the number of visitors, but it brightened up in the afternoon and this brought out the crowds.”
