There is a bit of a convoy forming. Meeting a little before 8am at Tibshelf Services - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Jolly good. Caveats aside Lez, meeting point at McDonalds, Swan Valley Services Northbound, Junc. 15a would make sense. What time are you planning to leave Oxford (if you've decided yet) ?

Sadly I think we're looking at 6:45 unless as the local you can convince me later :-) or earlier :-(

I think I must've misunderstood you Lez, thought you meant you were leaving Oxford at 6.45 (my mistake). If you'd like to meet up with the convoy further up the M1 at Tibshelf services then we will indeed need to leave 15a at around 6.45. Do you still fancy the earlier option ? Weather looks decent at the moment.

I'll do my best for 6:45. I'll put a post on here Saturday night what car to look for.

Any ideas on a rough itinerary for this?

What time are people aiming to arrive?

I'm coming over from Warrington.

I'm aiming to arrive between 9 and 9:30.

It will be an 8-8.30 (TBC) start as everyone has to be divided into groups for the factory tour. We need everyone to turn up on time for this one as late arrivals will might miss out.

Basically this. Don't be afraid to get chatting to some of the owners either. I won't be in anything flash as the Evo is wrapped up for winter.

Ollie, debating bringing the wife and daughter, is the venue appropriate for a toddler? Wasn't an issue at Morgan but obviously is at places like Silverstone

Not worried about either of those!

Will be chatting to as many as possible, also a large amount of drool and awe looking at the list of cars which will be there, mine is probably as far from flash as it gets.

Hi all

I've just sent the email out.. Unfortunately there aren't any bacon sarnies on this one however there will be tea and biscuits!
So I would recommend grabbing something on route if you can or have a bowl or Ready Brek before you set off ( other porridge oats are available )

KarlMac: yes they will be fine to bring them along.


See you all on Sunday.

Mine has at least 5 shades of blue, I win the least flashy award :P

Ollie,

The email gives me the impression that I can arrive between 9 and 930 and be OK - please tell me this is the case?

Cheers

Hi, i am from garforth and have booked my slot for my car. A few of my friends want to come down to look at all the cars. Will they be ok to walk down to have a look round? Not for the factory tour etc but just to come and look at the motors?

[Ollie_M]

Yeah that's fine as long as they make themselves known to the PH / Ginetta staff on arrival.

Ollie

Cheers!!
