All Iowa MINI enthusiasts are invited to the Willis Auto Campus annual Campus-Wide Customer Party being held on Tuesday, October 19th at 2121 NW 100th Street and 9800 Hickman Road in Des Moines. Willis will be showing off many of their 2011 Lexus, Infiniti, Land Rover, Cadillac, Volvo, Jaguar — and MINI models too — so it will be an interesting and diverse group of attendees.
There are some special perks planned for the MINI folk. Plan on arriving at 4:00 pm in your MINI and you will be ushered to a special, dedicated parking area just for our MINIs. From there you will enjoy a special preview of the new MINI facility being developed in the former Saturn space. The regular customer party begins at 4:45 pm and runs until 7:30 pm. The complimentary libations and snacks are typically pretty good too.
Current plans are to have three of the new 2011 model year MINIs on hand for your inspection.
The MINI of Des Moines facility is expected to be open and operational in December of this year. Track future MINI of Des Moines updates via the MINI News link on the Willis Auto Campus website:
