Caffeine and Classics - 31st January 2021

3/2/2021

0 Comments

 
Another stunning Sunday with a huge turnout at Caffeine and Classics, with Ian's Smoke Grey Cooper (left) and Tony's Tweed Grey Cooper (right) drawing the official photographer's attention.
​And now, a note from the organisers: 
Thank you to everyone that made it out to Caffeine & Classics on Sunday. A beautiful day to see some beautiful machines. Well done to the owners and the amazing condition that your vehicles are in. A pleasure to see!
We do have limited space at times for these events, so with that in mind Protecta Insurance would really love to keep the essence of the event being for ‘classics’. Vehicles at least 30 years old are welcome, and newer vehicles that are scratch-built, obscure or exotic are really what we are looking for. Basically a vehicle that isn't something that people are likely to see or use on their daily commute. For those who drive something a little more ‘modern’ or every day, whilst being great cars too, our sister event at Caffeine & Gasoline (https://www.facebook.com/CaffAndGas) would love to see you.
Many thanks also to Paul for the fantastic photos. Have a look at his Instagram account @paul_maxey_photography.

Dawnbreaker Run - Sunday 24th January 2021

3/2/2021

0 Comments

 
Eight Minis converged on the starting point at the Parnell Rose gardens at early o'clock.

Those with a competitive streak were flagged off at set intervals with the remaining Minis happy to adopt a "follow the leader" approach.

It was a pleasure to drive round the bays with no other traffic and a couple of the clues around this part proved a head scratcher, as some of the names for the answers were no longer displayed on the buildings!

We followed the bays round through Glenn Innes and headed for Musick Point in Howick where Steve had sorted an awesome photo spot (I recognised it immediately as a spot he had photo'd his previous Cooper at!).

Photos duly taken, we headed off round by Maraetai and finally finishing up at the cafe at Ardmore Airport where excellent breakfasts were had by all.

Answers duly compared, the Murrays were declared winners.

An excellent morning was had by all and thanks go to Steve and Darren for organising.
