Eastbourne classic Mini club is all about bringing together people who share a love for the iconic little car with a big personality. It’s a chance to meet like-minded Mini enthusiasts, swap stories, and enjoy the fun these cars bring. From monthly drives filled with smiles and scenery, to heading out to car shows where we proudly display our Minis as a club, there’s always something to look forward to. Best of all, the club is friendly, welcoming, and always happy to greet new members—whether you’ve owned a Mini for years or just caught the bug. After all, life’s more fun when it’s lived one Mini adventure at a time!
The Eastbourne Mini Club gathers every second Friday of the month for an evening of Mini magic! We meet at a cosy country pub to catch up with fellow enthusiasts, share our passion for these iconic little cars, and hopefully welcome some new members into the fold. After a good chat, we hit the road together for a spirited drive through the stunning East Sussex countryside, celebrating the joy and fun of the Classic Mini in true style.
Eastbourne Mini Club 2026 National Drive It Day 🚗🇬🇧
We met at Polegate Service Station and cruised along the A27 to Firle with 8 Minis. From there we headed through Ripe, on to Golden Cross, and then to Six Bells, Chiddingly for our first stop of the day.
After that, we moved on to our next location, Bodiam Street Village Hall, where we arrived to a warm welcome with coffee and cake waiting for us. ☕🍰
A brilliant day out with great company and some fantastic Minis!
The Eastbourne Mini Club took part in the unofficial London to Brighton Mini Run, starting our journey by meeting at The Thoroughbred Inn in Polegate.
From there, we headed to Pease Pottage Services, where we met up with many more Mini enthusiasts before continuing the journey down to Brighton. We parked up along Madeira Drive, surrounded by an amazing display of classic Minis and fellow enthusiasts.
After enjoying the atmosphere in Brighton, we all travelled together in convoy to Seaford Seafront.
A fantastic day was had by everyone, celebrating our shared passion and love for classic Mini cars.
Eastbourne Mini Club Joins the First Burwash Classic Car Show
Eastbourne Mini Club was delighted to attend the first-ever Burwash Classic Car Show.
The day began with a fantastic cruise from Eastbourne to Burwash, with our members enjoying the journey as much as the destination. On arrival, we found a brilliantly organised and thoughtfully planned event, with a wonderful selection of classic vehicles on display.
As the day went on, the event developed into a great show, bringing together car enthusiasts, local visitors and exhibitors in support of a very worthwhile cause. We were proud to be part of an occasion that raised money for charity while celebrating a shared passion for classic cars.
Eastbourne Mini Club at the Brands Hatch Mini Festival
What a fantastic day out for the Eastbourne Mini Club as we convoyed to the Brands Hatch Mini Festival with seven cars and our very own seven-car club stand!
After everyone made it safely to Brands Hatch, we got our stand set up and brought the whole club together for a proper breakfast. Nothing beats starting a Mini Festival with bacon, eggs and sausage sandwiches — especially when they’re enjoyed with good friends and plenty of Mini chat!
Once breakfast was finished, we headed off to enjoy a fun-filled day of Mini racing, fantastic cars and everything the festival had to offer. There were some amazing Minis on display, plenty of great racing to watch, and lots of opportunities to catch up with fellow Mini enthusiasts.
