mrjasey Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 Just wondering if any of you ever go out to the Cars & Coffee saturday mornings in Great Falls? I've been out a few times, and today there were about 4-5 classic Minis there. There usually are a few new MINI and a large variety of other cars (exotics, import, classic, and even some bikes).
Poison Ivy Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 Ooh that sounds fun, never heard of it. If you had posted earlier I would have gone. Maybe next week!
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 How early is it? Is it every Sat morning? I recently ran into a guy at the gas station with a really beautiful classic that he was taking to that show. The car was spotless and his owner was really nice too.

Yarsay Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 I try to make it out at least once a month and can usually be found in my JCW or an older green M3. I always take pictures; I have a link to some from July below but have yet to upload my August set. It gets super-crowded in the summer so best to show up by 7am if you want to park in the main lots. There are always a handful of AWESOME cars that make it worth waking up so early on a Saturday. Abridged July set on my blog here Larger July set hosted here I'd love to meet up with other MINIacs so give me a shout if you plan on heading out in the future! I post stuff on my MINI here: http://techometerblog.com/

IndiCooper Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 My dad has been there the past 2 weeks, he's got the black classic with the checkered roof, he says its a lotta fun and he's met a lot more classics and he's trying to get them more organized so there may be more there in the future!
TATTRAT Posted September 11, 2011 Report Posted September 11, 2011 I use to make it out every/every other Saturday, was always well worth it. Need to get photos together. I like that it is short, concise, to the point, quality, and being early like that helps keep some of the crowd down. The mix of old and new is awesome. It really shows off the varied tastes in the enthusiastic owners around here in NoVA! I need to g through my shots now that I think of it, I have a lot of pictures I haven't done anything with. . .I know the owner of the NOBLE, awesome car. flickr
cmcveay Posted September 11, 2011 Report Posted September 11, 2011 During the mayhem of getting home D.C. today, I saw a classic under a car cover on Glebe Road (north side of Glebe, between Hwy 1 and I-395). Has anyone see that classic out from under the car cover? 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold
Poison Ivy Posted September 16, 2011 Report Posted September 16, 2011 I know it will be an early Sat, but my dad and I are thinking of going to Cars & Coffee tomorrow morning then heading to the M&G at PMOA. Dad will be taking his '63 Studebaker GT Hawk out. Maybe we'll see some of you there.
