Hi all,

Just wondered who was going to be at Beaulieu this weekend for Simply Aston.

Great event last year with plenty of cars and like minded folk on parade so get there if you can.

Just shout up below if your going…………..biggrin, it would be great to say hi.
Mate, haven't seen / spoken to you for ages! Have you even got an Aston anymore?!

I'm going down to this. Quarterly is gonna be there as well but staying over there the night before so no convoy for him.

So who IS up for doing a CONVOY??

I'm driving from central London along the M3 via Egham. Some service stops along the way anyone? Fleet for example?

My Vanquish is all clean and ready:

Ahh so frustrating, I hadn't realised it was this weekend. I am a touch busy. Does anyone happen to know if Beaulieu can accomodate helicopter landings?
I'll ask... biggrin

Unfortunately poor Dave is having his brake pads changed that weekend and won't be able to make it!

I was thinking of 8am at Fleet Services. Leaving at 8.30am? Should give plenty of time for anyone else to join us. About an hour's drive to Beaulieu which starts entrance at 9.30am.

Will ask everyone else I know...

Also planning to be there in our new acquisition.

Re: tickets, is it just a tenner per car or need individual tickets as well? Not 100% clear on the website.
Hi Limey1, just bought my tickets on the website, its £10 per adult and £5 per child when in an Aston.

Geoff.

Hopefully going from Kent and may try Hindhead route. Any good roads west after Liphook etc to join up with A31 or M3 rather than going all the way to Portsmouth and back up M27.
The Hindhead tunnel is great for a windows down blast, just remember the average speed cameras.
Rather than following the A3 to Portsmouth take the A272 West from Peterfield Services across to Winchester where is joins the M3, it is a very popular route with bikers.

I'm heading out of central London and up for convoying, I'll hopefully make it to Fleet services on time smile Though the DB9 is not the cleanest.

Seems like I can make it last minute, but can't print my tickets before I go. Can I just show them the confirmation email or am I better off just paying at the gate?

See you all tomorrow!

Now that is what I like to hear. That's commitment: pick up an Aston and get straight down to an Aston event the next day. Haha. smile

Haha yes, it's his first ever Aston as well! Thought it would be rude not to attend and help run in the new beast. wink

Cheers, yes it's a very smart car, although had it been my choice I would've had a slightly more interesting colour. But he's happy and that's what matters, plus it does look rather good. smokin
