IndiCooper Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Dc retro kinda died out over the years but my dad is working on bring it back to life, ill have him post something on their status.
Obsessive Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 DC Retro Minis is not dead! The webmaster dropped out so the site died, so it is really hard to get everyone together. Right now we rely on text and word of mouth to spread the word on get togethers and events. Classic mini owners are an odd lot and true classic british car enthusiasts, some do not drive their cars very often, some are in various stages of restoration, or in my case repair. There are only a handful of daily drivers. And I do have to admit there is some snobbery about the new Minis being BMWs. That being said I will spread the word on the invitation and see if anyone is interested. I will be there if my schedule allows, but I doubt the classic will be back on the road by then.
