Definitely interested in that. Could potentially do week or weekend, just depends on dates.
Trying to find a day when this many people are free is going to be impossible. I suggest the organiser just pick a small number of available dates and people vote.

John, at this stage best to give them a call and see how many they'll take on a tour. With partners, you could be at 60 people pretty quickly!!

Well, AML say "no more than six people and no weekends".
I leave comment on that for others...

I leave comment on that for others... Not sure a forum with a membership of a quarter of a million was the right place to try and find 6 people for a meet then  The Gaydon Motor Museum means a large group can meet. The AM factory tour might as well be done by PM.

I leave comment on that for others... I knew it was to good to be true. Will have to watch the Mega Factories this week to see the factory then. Gaydon museum would be good and a run down the test track / airstrip.

Well, someone from AML in Gaydon is reading this thread.
Hello!
We shall await further developments...
I am not being cryptic, I had a conversation with someone from Gaydon and we'll see what they come back with...

I'd much rather make a day of it with you chaps, so if anyone from Gaydon is reading this, perhaps they might see that the Pistonheads AM owners are quite a prolific bunch, as can be seen by the recent Brooklands gathering of circa 30 Pistonheads Gaydon era cars.

But what about the space for a picnic, I always travel South with my haggis and irn-bru hamper Brooklands/Trinity Engineering meet was tempting, but too far. If AML come up with an offering for a tour, would make the visit worthwhile and could roll it into a break away.
