The next Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet will be happening the 24th of May 2015, which is just 13 (yes, lucky 13!) weeks away!!

The event will have the format of a primary meet at Pease Pottage Services, with a convoy down to Madiera Drive at a steady 65mph, parking up in one huge block there for the main meet, prior to a fixed price big breakfast and the social events, photo shoots etc.

We have Harwoods Jaguar and an unknown/unlisted sponsor for our Welcome Packs this meet, and am working hard to ensure we have industry attendees to answer any Jaguar sales or servicing, or general car care related questions you may have.

The last Spring/Summer meet attracted a lot of interest from tourists interested in our cars and the brand, and was a fantastic day all round, so it is well worth putting your name forward for. The more attendees we have the more interest I will be able to raise in sponsorship and industry attendance.

Additionally this year we are sandwiched in the middle of a month of MG, Mini, and Clasic Car Meet days so I am sure our meet will raise a lot of interest... esp with one or two brand new showroom XE's there, literally *just* delivered to Harwoods Brighton, hopefully in attendance on the day!!

Being a Spring/Summer meet this event will be exclusively Jaguar - if you have a car of another marque - don't worry - the next Winter meet will be open to all marques again.

If you would like to attend this convoy and meet please put your name forward and I will be happy to add you in.

You can put a post up on this thread if you wish to attend, or you can email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk - either way I will happily add you in.. as usual I need to know if you wish to attend just the main meet, or the meet and the convoy, your car and year, and how many people will likely be travelling in the car..

The itinerary, parking, & fixed price breakfast costs will be listed in the next few weeks so there are no surprises for those of us on a budget - but the event itself as such is FREE and will remain so.

I am working on the advertising with VisitBrighton, newspapers, magazines as you read and will update you as I go...

Ok time for a summary for those of you who have lost track of things, or are wondering if you should come along, or maybe instead have a lie-in and watch breakfast TV on the day.

We currently have:

37 vehicles (so far) covering Jaguar production from 1968 through to 2014, with brand new showroom XE's due to join us on the day!

Free Welcome Packs with a select range of info and goodies for you.

A fixed price breakfast for less than a fiver (cheaper than last year!)

Car industry attendees there to answer your technical queries.

A chance to socialise with the people you know so well on the forums.

Exchange problems & fixes.. solving that car issue you can't quite figure out.

Get to see a huge range of Jaguars with the backdrop of the victorian promenades on the Brighton seafront,

This event is suitable for everyone - I will be bringing my family along this year as Brighton pier is just metres from our meet location, arcades, The Lanes, the main shopping centre making it great for everyone from diehard petrolheads through to my nine year old son and younger.

Sooo much going on - why do anything else? The event is FREE to everyone - the only costs being the fixed price breakfast and the parking - even those costs will be listed when the itinerary goes online so those of us on a budget know exactly what we need to pay out on the day, no surprises! There is nothing hidden with this event - especially not the fact that is will be a great day out!!

So go on, why not sign yourself up by posting on this thread, or just emailing me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk

The next Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet will be happening on 24th May 2015 - Just 12 weeks away now! This meet will be our fourth one, and we will have been running this event for two years now!

This Spring/Summer event is Jaguar exclusive, but if you have a car of another marque don't worry - the Winter event will again be open to all marques with a warm Jaguar welcome for everyone.

For those who don't know, the event comprises of two components - an initial meet at Pease Pottage Services with Welcome packs and goodie bags handed out, and a convoy at a steady 65mph down to the main meet and event in Madiera Drive, Brighton. The distance is approx 24 miles on major roads which should ensure all attendees can manage it without issue.

At the main meet in Brighton we have fixed price breakfasts, photo shoots, socialising, industry attendees there to answer all those questions you have never managed to get answered, and more - and all with the backdrop of the Victorian promenades, the beach and sea in front of you, and everything a family could want on a day out with the Pier, the beaches, the sea gently rolling in, the Proms, and a huge local shopping centre.

This year we are sandwiched in the middle of a month of MG, Mini, and Clasic Car Meet days so I am sure our meet will raise a lot of interest... esp with one or two brand new showroom XE's there, literally *just* delivered to Harwoods Brighton, hopefully in attendance on the day!!

We are already listed as an official event with Brighton & Hove, & East Sussex Councils - and I am working on trying to get further advertising and newspaper coverage in place if I can,,

If you would like to attend this convoy and meet ( a guaranteed great day out for you, your family and your car) please put your name forward and I will be happy to add you in.

You can put a post up on this thread if you wish to attend, or you can email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk - either way I will happily add you in.. as usual I need to know if you wish to attend just the main meet, or the meet and the convoy, your car and year, and how many people will likely be travelling in the car..

OK guys - latest meet news for you.. the XE(s) that will be attending our event on the 24th, are due to be road registered on the 18th of May and will be just days old!!

On the day Tony will bring his diary with him and take bookings for test drives of the new XE, possibly from Sunday 7th of June.. giving you the chance to be amongst the first to drive this brand new XE model!

To be exact Jaguar is not allowing any dealership XE to be registered until the 18th of May - so if you book a test drive whilst at the meet you will be amongst the first in the country to drive a road registered XE! A fantastic opportunity not to be missed.. and just one more reason to come along on the day!
I am also having another bash at the Brighton Argus today to see if we can get news coverage - it would be a fantastic boost.. I will let you know if I get a response..

We are already listed as an official event with Brighton & Hove, & East Sussex Councils - and I am working on trying to get further advertising and newspaper coverage in place if I can,,

If you would like to attend this convoy and meet ( a guaranteed great day out for you, your family and your car) please put your name forward and I will be happy to add you in.

You can put a post up on this thread if you wish to attend, or you can email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk - either way I will happily add you in.. as usual I need to know if you wish to attend just the main meet, or the meet and the convoy, your car and year, and how many people will likely be travelling in the car..

The itinerary, parking, & fixed price breakfast costs will all be listed in the next few weeks, so there are no surprises for those of us on a budget - but the event itself as such is FREE and will remain so.

If you haven't been before and would like to check up on some of our recent Bi-Annual Convoy and Meet events please have a look here: UK South East Meet December 2014 in Brighton or UK South East Meet Spring/Summer 2014 in Brighton

The next Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet will be happening the 24th of May 2015, which is just 13 (yes, lucky 13!) weeks away!!

The event will have the format of a primary meet at Pease Pottage Services, with a convoy down to Madiera Drive at a steady 65mph, parking up in one huge block there for the main meet, prior to a fixed price big breakfast and the social events, photo shoots etc.

We have Harwoods Jaguar and an unknown/unlisted sponsor for our Welcome Packs this meet, and am working hard to ensure we have industry attendees to answer any Jaguar sales or servicing, or general car care related questions you may have.

The last Spring/Summer meet attracted a lot of interest from tourists interested in our cars and the brand, and was a fantastic day all round, so it is well worth putting your name forward for. The more attendees we have the more interest I will be able to raise in sponsorship and industry attendance.

Additionally this year we are sandwiched in the middle of a month of MG, Mini, and Clasic Car Meet days so I am sure our meet will raise a lot of interest... esp with one or two brand new showroom XE's there, literally *just* delivered to Harwoods Brighton, hopefully in attendance on the day!!

Being a Spring/Summer meet this event will be exclusively Jaguar - if you have a car of another marque - don't worry - the next Winter meet will be open to all marques again.

If you would like to attend this convoy and meet please put your name forward and I will be happy to add you in.

You can put a post up on this thread if you wish to attend, or you can email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk - either way I will happily add you in.. as usual I need to know if you wish to attend just the main meet, or the meet and the convoy, your car and year, and how many people will likely be travelling in the car..

The itinerary, parking, & fixed price breakfast costs will be listed in the next few weeks so there are no surprises for those of us on a budget - but the event itself as such is FREE and will remain so.

I am working on the advertising with VisitBrighton, newspapers, magazines as you read and will update you as I go...

The next Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet will be happening on 24th May 2015 - Just 10 weeks away now! This meet will be our fourth one, and we will have been running this event for two years now!

This Spring/Summer event is Jaguar exclusive, but if you have a car of another marque don't worry - the Winter event will again be open to all marques with a warm Jaguar welcome for everyone.

For those who don't know, the event comprises of two components - an initial meet at Pease Pottage Services with Welcome packs and goodie bags handed out, and a convoy at a steady 65mph down to the main meet and event in Madiera Drive, Brighton. The distance is approx 24 miles on major roads which should ensure all attendees can manage it without issue.

At the main meet in Brighton we have fixed price breakfasts, photo shoots, socialising, industry attendees there to answer all those questions you have never managed to get answered, and more - and all with the backdrop of the Victorian promenades, and everything a family could possibly want on a day out with the Pier, the beaches, the sea gently rolling in, the Proms, and a huge local shopping centre.

We are already listed as an official event with Brighton & Hove, & East Sussex Councils - and I am working on trying to get further advertising and newspaper coverage in place if I can,,

If you would like to attend this convoy and meet ( a guaranteed great day out for you, your family and your car) please put your name forward and I will be happy to add you in.

You can put a post up on this thread if you wish to attend, or you can email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk - either way I will happily add you in.. as usual I need to know if you wish to attend just the main meet, or the meet and the convoy, your car and year, and how many people will likely be travelling in the car..

The next Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet will be happening on 24th May 2015 - Just over 8 weeks away now! This meet will be our fourth one, and we will have been running this event for two years now!

The next Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet will be happening on 24th May 2015 - Just 8 weeks away now! This meet will be our fourth one, and we will have been running this event for two years now!

This Spring/Summer event is Jaguar exclusive, but if you have a car of another marque don't worry - the Winter event will again be open to all marques with a warm Jaguar welcome for everyone.

For those who don't know, the event comprises of two components - an initial meet at Pease Pottage Services with Welcome packs and goodie bags handed out, and a convoy at a steady 65mph down to the main meet and event in Madiera Drive, Brighton. The distance is approx 24 miles on major roads which should ensure all attendees can manage it without issue.

At the main meet in Brighton we have fixed price breakfasts, photo shoots, socialising, industry attendees there to answer all those questions you have never managed to get answered, a FREE prize draw for some SNG Barrett goodies, and more - and all with the backdrop of the Victorian promenades, and everything a family could possibly want on a day out with the Pier, the beaches, the sea gently rolling in, the Proms, and a huge local shopping centre.

This year we are sandwiched in the middle of a month of MG, Mini, and Classic Car Meet days so I am sure our meet will raise a lot of interest... esp with one or two brand new showroom XE's there, literally *just* delivered to Harwoods Brighton, hopefully in attendance on the day!!

We are already listed as an official event with Brighton & Hove, & East Sussex Councils - and I am working on trying to get further advertising and newspaper coverage in place if I can,,

If you would like to attend this convoy and meet ( a guaranteed great day out for you, your family and your car) please put your name forward and I will be happy to add you in.

You can put a post up on this thread if you wish to attend, or you can email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk - either way I will happily add you in.. as usual I need to know if you wish to attend just the main meet, or the meet and the convoy, your car and year, and how many people will likely be travelling in the car..

The itinerary, parking, & fixed price breakfast costs will all be listed in the next few weeks, so there are no surprises for those of us on a budget - but the event itself as such is FREE and will remain so.

If you haven't been before and would like to check up on some of our recent Bi-Annual Convoy and Meet events please have a look here: UK South East Meet December 2014 in Brighton or UK South East Meet Spring/Summer 2014 in Brighton

OK Guys,

I am constantly double checking on things in the hope that I have everything covered...

And I have an update regarding the breakfast deal - there are now two types of breakfast with different costings along with a reduced price for those of us with children.. this is the current deal:

Unlimited Cooked Breakfast £4.99 adults, £1.99 for under 12's
Unlimited Continental Breakfast £2.99 adults, £0.99 for under 12's

You get as many food 'refills' as you want and if you want to add a 4oz steak you can for £1.99

Drinks come in on top now at £2.25 unlimited for adults, or £0.99p unlimited for children

I am sorry it is more complicated, but for those with children it will definately prove cheaper, for everyone else a little more expensive but indoors with wi-fi etc and the food etc is unlimited...

Full details of the breakfast deals will be in your welcome packs on the day.

If people would prefer to switch to our previous breakfast suppliers please let me know..... :-)
