The Classic Motor Show is becoming an annual pilgrimage for UK and mainland European Mini fans.
The 2016 event took place 11 to 13 November at the NEC’s gigantic show halls in Birmingham, drawing in eager crowds. It’s such a vast event that one day is never enough.
Our favourite car was well represented, with the majority of Mini displays and club stands being grouped together. But there were many more to be found around the halls. Minis also featured in the Silverstone Auction, held during the event.
