A pity, we would have loved to attend...but we are on the way to Corsica, doing an escorted tour and hoping to see a bit of the Tour de Corse Historique..

Planning on going. Forecast looks good, too. Am I right in thinking its open to all? Will be bringing a TVR Griffith.

Your Griff should be very welcome. I once went with a neighbour in his contemporary Morgan and on a nice day, it's a wonderful informal drop-in event. However, I just checked the the website which does now say that *all* cars need to be >20yrs old.. I'm sure that the last time I checked, there was only a partial restriction as one can see why "they" (not sure who - e.g. the organiser or possibly the local authorities) wanted to avoid diluting the event with a heap of modern LR, Jag or Mini product but the hard limit of 20yrs seems a bit Blunt. It used to work well IMO with a smattering of contemporary TVR, Lotus, Morgan, Ariel etc. etc.

I saw the restriction on the 20 year age, but looking at last year's photos it would seem that anything interesting is welcome too. Early Griffs are now over 20 years old, but mine is a late one, so we'll see. It should be a great day out anyway.

I went to this and it was a fantastic day out and parked my seven (the white one with clams in the photos) up in the Lotus area with about 20 other 7's and a load of Lotus!s (Lotii?).

Many cars younger than 20 years of age but as has been said if you had a youngtimer or something obviously British you were in - no Nissan Primeras though although I did see a gorgeous Toyota 2000gt and there were a sprinkling of TVR's there too.

A link to some average photos I took below....my memory was full on the phone so apologies!

I went this weekend. It was absolutely stunning. The quality of cars on show was spectacular, the weather was great, and it was cool to see some old bikes as well. Well worth a visit, even from afar if you like classic cars.

You can cut and paste from the 2014 meet pics. Looks all similar. Such a nice event.
