Prodrive Sunday Service 19/02

Full details of our first 2017 Sunday Service, at a new venue as well!



Our first Sunday Service of 2017 is here! We're heading to Banbury where the good people of Prodrive will very kindly open their doors to us. It's our first Sunday Service event with Prodrive and what better venue to start the year with?! It looks like being a fantastic morning.

Prodrive was founded in 1984 by former World Rally Championship winning co-driver, David Richards, and they've gone from strength to strength since. In 33 years it has won six WRC titles, five World Sportscar championships and four British Touring Car Championships to name but a few! And Prodrive is mostly known for its motorsport heritage, it also has a massively successful technologies aspect, too, and we'll get to have a nose around the facilities to see how Prodrive thrives!

This event will be taking place on February 19 at Prodrive's factory in Banbury. Prodrive will have its on-site restaurant open for us, so you can have your breakfast before the fun begins. Its facility will be open for all to have a good wander around, and there will also be presentations running throughout the morning, which will explain what Prodrive does and answer any questions you may have. These presentations aren't compulsory, but if you do want to include it in your morning, they will be on a first come, first serve basis (sign up when you arrive) to cater for around 80 people each.

We have space for 250 cars, but plus ones, kids/partners (if they want to...) are all welcome at this event! Sign up here.

See you there!

The PH Team.

I've always driven passed here and taken an interest and previously had a peer through the windows of the old facility so looking forward to this!

I live about 10 mins away and bought a tour of their facility in a charity auction last year - it's well worthwhile and I didn't realise how much more they're involved in than just rallying.

Looking forward to kicking off the year. Looks like most of the PHSS calendar is going to be a bit far for me this year.

Didn't it just! They usually slim down a long way right before the event as the impulsive clickers get told off by their respective SWMBOs wink

I checked at about 14.30 having checked earlier & the post/announcement wasn't showing but fortunately I got tipped off by a fellow PHer about 20 minutes later - it should be a good one & I hope importantly PH get invited back again afterwards as I'm sure Prodrive will be great hosts.

You're not kidding! I check PH several times a day, as I'm sure most of us do, and have never failed to get on a list so far frown Unless a LOT of people drop out I'll be missing this one. Shame, it's close by and would an interesting venue. I guess 250 places is quite a bit fewer than in some SSs.

Would have liked to take the M3 (for photo opportunity at least) but don't think it'll be ready.

Hello Alex.
Is that spare seat still available? If so, can I be first to request it?

Sounds like this should be a good one!
I managed to get place 266 on the list (Just missed out!).
Although now at 265 so only need 15 more people to drop out wink
