About Mighty Mini Club of Sri Lanka
A group of Mini enthusiasts formed the Mighty Mini Club of Sri Lanka on 7th July 1995; so as to enable Mini lovers to meet socially and make the most of their Minis. The name for the Club was suggested by Ameen Deane who continues to be a life-member of the Club, and has been an ardent Mini owner and racing driver. 33 Mini owners gathered for the first meeting of the Club and a team of Office Bearers were chosen. The late Mr. Elsworth Forbes was the Founder President of the Club. Mr Forbes passed away in January 2005, and his funeral procession was led by twelve Mini’s. Mrs. Forbes and two sons still have their Mini which is a 1959 model 850. The other Founder Office Bearers of the Club were – Vice President Naomal Keertisinghe, Secretary Deshan de Silva and Treasurer Hafiz Cader. By mid 2020, the membership of the Club surpassed 600.
