A NEW weekly car boot sale has opened in Mijas.

Held every Sunday opposite Aladin’s in La Cala, pitches are being offered at a special rate of just €10.

“A classic car boot sale followed by fabulous fish and chips across the road, what better for a Sunday?” said Chug, one of the organisers.

The local livewire and his wife Karen have invested more than €500,000 to reinvent the adjacent block of empty commercial units, which now boast Aladin, a buzzing cafe and several thriving businesses.

After years of lobbying from locals, a new zebra crossing has also been put in place to connect the nearby car park to the new row of shops and cafe.

“It’s great news,” said Chug, “it’s nice to have the area buzzing again.

“We hope to see lots of locals pitching up for the car boot sales over the summer.”
