Spent today at the classic car show at Shuttleworth in Bedfordshire.
Was there as part of my mini club, but also took the C5 along aswell, and had a nice day out.
My 4x4 mini
And Riley enjoying himself
The C5 got lots of attention throughout the day, from both people wandering round, and the rest of the mini club. Several mini club members had a go, and all had smiles on their faces ... one person, Andrew, had lots of goes, and it also turns out he works in the building where the C5 was designed.
Towards the end of the day a man came over and asked if it was 24v or not. I told him it wasn't, and he said that he was the person who owned the Segway that was on The Gadget Show, when they had the C5 / Segway head to head.
He mentioned C5alive, and the 24v C5 that had been used for the programme, and how quick it was. We actually had quite a good chat about both vehicles
Just goes to show what a small world it is
