Plant Oxford Family Day 2018
Written on 24 June 2018 by R HillIn Tanya Field's unofficial role of looking after heritage at Plant Oxford - Cowley, the MINI Y Register and other clubs Tanya is involved in often get invited along to show off their cars.
Guy who also owns a Y REG MINI:
Tanya Field kindly invited me, and a few others to the MINI plant for Family Day. I displayed my Rover Vitesse, and within the plant had the opportunity to write / sign a new production MINI. I thought it needed a "Y" reg type tag !! Thanks to Tanya & Jason for a very enjoyable day. Your efforts are very much appreciated.

Fabulous day at Oxford Plant with Tanya and the BMW plant families day, was able to go around body in white and assembly halls and the car validation centre
Went with a good mate and his wife who drove 194 for me and I took my 59 Morris Mini so they both went home after 17 and 59 years respectively, Quite a sobering thought lovely day with the weather had a good chat with friends and a gent from Newbury parked next with a Mini GP1 helped to polish 194, Thanks very much for your elbow grease made the car look great again
Just as a matter of interest the light blue car is the 12th oldest mini traveller Many many BL and Rover cars assembled by Tanya, mostly made at Cowley throughout the years
