Local meets

Local meets are a great way to get your Midas seen and spread the word about how good Midas' really are. I try to attend as many meets as I can and unfortunately I don't see any other Midas' (with exception of club meets). I thought it may be nice to try to get more than one Midas' at one or more meets. If you take your Midas out to such meets in any area please post them for others to see and hopefully we will be able to get owners acquainted with one another on a local level.

Horsepower at the Hall looks to be worth going along to for anyone local....

Over 200 people now confirmed to attend. Should be a great morning with some great motors. There will be offerings of a trophy for the car named as Best in Show' and have a few nice prizes to raffle off, all in the name of charity.

As I live in furthest West Wales(Pembrokeshire) it is difficult to get to meet other members at any local meets. I fully agree that we should show our fantastic cars at every opportunity. I try to get to as many mini shows / classic car shows as possible throughout the year. The picture above was taken at the Pembrokeshire Classic Car show last weekend. There were over 400 cars but ONLY one Midas. It drew a lot of interest. Next weekend we are at Beaulieu Mini Show.

Beaulieu is my neck of the woods. Long ways from Wales! I'll have to get some things sorted out and perhaps pop along too

Spot the odd one out...just returned from the Beaulieu Mini Show...managed to get to the show very early and park front row...The Midas was easy to spot and drew a lot of interest...maybe this thread is not quite the place for this picture but it does show that the more shows/events we visit the more people get to see our wonderful little cars.
