The LINCOLNSHIREMINICLUB goal is to become, not necessarily one
of the biggest, but definitely THE BEST and most popular MINI Owners Club in the
UK and to be a part of most events!

History of Our Club
Founded by Matt Taylor after buying his first MINI Cooper on the 12th of August
2005, Matt joined the well known global forum MINI2.
After a short time Matt decided that he wanted to meet local MINI owners
with the same interests as him.
On the 1st of June 2006, Matt started up the Lincolnshire MINI Club by driving around local
housing areas and looking for MINI Owners. Posting flyers and finding MINIs on his travels, sometimes handing
a Lincolnshire MINI Club Flyer to MINI Owners when they had stopped at traffic lights, membership soon started
to grow.
Matt has been
featured in the Lincolnshire Echo newspaper regarding the starting up The Lincolnshire MINI Club, which
has now resulted in him being the representative "young person's view" for driving in Lincoln
for the newspaper group.
2008 saw the start of regular LINCOLNSHIRE MINI CLUB pub meets and for
the first time we were a display attraction at both the Lincolnshire Show and RAF Waddington International Air Show.
We also were a full page feature in the September issue of 'modern MINI' magazine.
