There are already some videos of the XP on YouTube. There will be some 
photos on the Mini Marcos site shortly, but mostly of the Minis plus 
exceptional cars (XP, Probe, Amigo, Le Mans 1800 etc.).

If you mean the one in the UK, try this:

Some nice shots of the Mantis XP which made the trip from the US for the weekend.

It was absolutely fantastic, "being an English man I cant pass without mentioning the weather" We were blessed, the weather was very good sunshine all the way. My wife and I counted 250 cars what a fantastic turn out. We met a chap from Sheffield who had had his car in the garage without turning a wheel for twenty years. He got it up and running for this event. There were many other similar stories. How ever for us in Blighty the big event was the XP from California, WOW! what a treat. I now have a picture off me driving up the Prescott hill, and another with the XP in the same position. What a fabulous weekend.

That was some weekend at Prescott, I counted around 230 Marcoses, so while browsing the Yuku site and looking at the pics, take the time to register, post your pics, ask questions and generally come into the fold. It is free - and it is not affiliated to any single Marcos club, in fact you don't need to be in a club. Besides the 50th rally was a joint effort of all the UK clubs, and a lot of others besides.

Join the forum and say hello. This is a good year for owners to all get in touch.
