Serious question... I know Morgan built an electric car. Do you know if they have a charging point and if I would be allowed to use it?

No suitable charging point will be available unfortunately

There is electric car charging in the centre of town if you wanted to stay a bit longer, sample the delights of Malvern, walk on the hills etc.

Since they were put in I have seen one car using them...

I have the problem that Morgan is a bit too close so I will need to take a longer route to give the TVR a proper run.

Quick question - can children go on the factory tour?

[Mikebentley]

I would love to see Ross's I3, seen loads of M3's. I have never seen a single car using Malvern charging point.

According to their website, the factory tour isn't for children under 5 http://www.morgan-motor.co.uk/mmc/factoryvisits.ht...

On the seubjct of electric charging points, the new Tesco in Stourbridge has 5 / 6 bays for charging but 'cos they're by the doors to the exit, people park in them with their 'normal' cars. On a busy day, an electric car can't get to one. Never seen one of them used as intended.

Many thanks - I hadn't clocked that

[ChemicalChaos]

Yes! I'm in!

Looking forward to this, Ill see you there

[Craikeybaby]

I still need another 78 to drop out, although based on previous experience, there's still a chance!

[eybic]

I've just sent the joining instructions and map out to all those in the 300. I'll send a mail again on Saturday to those that have made it into the 300 since this mail.

If you are arriving by bike, please head for gate C

See you all there.

Only 2 email bounce back so far for strikem and DeanMS, you need to update your email addresses guys

[Mattt]

That email must have prompted a few, I'm now in!

Raises the question about speculative sign ups if c30% have dropped out in the past few days, but that's an issue for the other thread!

[eybic]

We will be introducing "measures" very soon in an effort to stop people signing up and not removing themselves if they don't go.

[garytr7v8]

Great I'm in under the 300, car polished and fueled ready and looking forward to a great morning.

[Mikebentley]

If your username relates to the car your bringing, hope you make it in, that was my dream car as a kid.

No preferential treatment is given to any cars at SS events, I think this is what makes them such good events as you could see an F40 parked next to a 106 etc. You wouldn't see that at many other meets.

At RAF Finningley (the Vulcan Sunday Service) a few weeks ago we had a Lamborghini Diablo, F-Type Coupé, Mustang GT390 (Bullitt) and my Discovery complete with mud half way up the doors.

I'll be there this weekend so will try and find some "contrasting" cars to park next to.
