Car Café is back!

After loads of chat that most car meets are too far south, we’re back in the midlands to fill the void! Car Café has now been running for two consecutive years and has the involvement of several local clubs. Last year some events saw close to 100 cars there on the day and we want to make it bigger and better than ever.

As always there’ll be a massive selection of metal from Fords to Ferraris. Special guests from last year include the BMW i8, a chrome Vauxhall Adam and the Ford GT.

But more important than that, we want YOU to attend. Bring your cherished motors, your beloved cars and come and join us for a true morning of metal.

There’s no guest list, nowhere to sign up, just turn up on the day! We’ll be there, rain or shine.

Best of all there’s a FREE breakfast sandwich and tea/coffee refills available throughout the morning.

The first event of 2015 is Saturday, April 4th, at:
Neway House,
Little Oak Drive,
Annesley,
Nottingham,
NG15 0DR

It starts bright and early at 8.30am and finishes at 10:30am, so you can be away early for other weekend commitments.
Hope to see you there!



We've also got a great video from our first 2014 event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcCwxmL7ufA

I'm only 2 miles away so would be very rude not to be there! I will be in a 147 GTA or 67 Mustang. I will ask a friend who has a Dodge SRT10 pick-up and 67 Mustang if he fancies it aswell.

I'll be there in my XFR, 4 miles from me and on the business park I work. My mates in their Edition 30 and Rocco are likely.

I will be in the Mustang if the weather is good, if not it will be the GTA. I will ask a few friends with muscle cars and see if their free.

Sounds like there is going to be a really good selection of cars on display this time… that Aston is just stunning.

My overdrive decided to stop working this morning as I was driving into work - if I can fix it on Friday I will be there, so fingers crossed that it's something simple (don't fancy going up the M1 in 4th gear!).

Hi - just to say thanks for the great turnout. There were loads of fantastic motors on show, and it was the biggest Car Cafe yet! Hopefully you enjoyed it as much as we did - hopefully the next one will be just as busy.

Pictures Coming soon!
