How about a Pistonheads (cheapish) Italian car meet?
Discussion
Would a two year old Giullietta pass muster chief, even if it's a (cough) diesel...? Well, at least it's red, Italian, got tan leather bumholders and sexy(ish) alloys.
Gaydon would be a fab venue - there are some nice corners between my gaff and that emporium of all things British and ace!

I have one red one and one silver one but would bring the red one, if it doesn't explode.
How about a Saturday in June?
There have been various good suggestions about venue etc but I still incline to Gaydon because it is near the middle of the motorway network. Lunch venue suggestions invited. There is a pretty country house hotel near Alcester but the food was a bit meh when I last went there. I mentioned the Boot at Lapworth, a large gastropub in a pretty rural setting near a flight of canal locks, with good country roads nearby. Good food; not cheap but not mega expensive either. Hilarious orange and be-blinged Solihull ladies with Botox shots and convertible Audis much in evidence*. Any other ideas?
* Speaking as a West Midlander by birth (I escaped a while back), we West Midlanders just cannot handle wealth and invariably become vulgar and blingy if we get a bit of cash. Good comedy value.
