Rex's Racing Mini

Here at Snows, we are pleased to support Rex Patterson, a valued customer of Snows, in his up and coming racing adventure at Silverstone.

Rex built and designed his racing Mini in a special tribute to MINI's 50th Birthday. His son will race the car at Silverstone on the 3rd October in the Super Mighty Mini Championship, and they have already managed to bag the Race No: 50 from the MSA (the sports governing body).

Rex's son is a previous National Champion in the Super Mighty Mini Championship Series; we wish him all the luck in the world with the current series and have our fingers crossed that he produces another win in this very special anniversary year.

The car has been decorated with gold bullions, in a tribute to the 40th anniversary of the original Italian Job movie. Rex was able to raise money for the Lee First Responders and KIDS charities by offering companies and individuals the opportunity to purchase a gold bullion, for a small fee, in order to put their company/family/pets/friends name on the car itself.

Those who attended our 50th birthday party on 12-13 September would have been lucky enough to take a good look around the car, as it was on display in our showroom. For those of you who weren't so lucky, you can take a quick peek at the pictures we have in our dealer gallery by clicking here.
