April 22, 2004 – This nice Innocenti Mini has just left the MiniGuy showroom headed for its new home in Redlands, California.

John B., who adopted the Mini from us, was trying to figure out who he could have drive him out the 2.5 hours each way, when we told him that we are just two blocks from the Amtrak station in Ventura.

So, he hopped aboard the Metrolink commuter rail system near his home, and switched to an Amtrak train at Union Station in Los Angeles. Not long after that, he was in Ventura and behind the wheel of this nice Mini headed for home.

Lots of folks have used the train, including one couple from Albuquerque, New Mexico who had us build a Mini to order for them in the UK, then drove it home after their train trip.

Another way to get to our Ventura showroom is the Greyhound bus, since the Ventura bus station is just three blocks away.

Flying in? If you land in Burbank, the commuter rail/Amtrak station is across the street from the airport.

From Los Angeles International (LAX) airport, there’s cheap shuttle buses and vans, or plenty of rental cars.

From the (San Francisco) Bay Area, many of our customers have rented one-way rental cars at bargain rates, and dropped them near here and just drove their Mini home.

Planning a trip to see us? Drop us an email and we’ll send you a Word document with local hotel and motel info, good restaurants in the area, fun things to do with your family, and other useful information.
