UPDATE - DETAILS CONFIRMED BELOW! FRIDAY 22nd & SATURDAY 23rd APRIL

Any of you ex Aston owners might recall some of the meets/drives I've put together over the years.
A few of the current and ex owners have been pestering me to do another one for a while.
In a moment of inspiration whilst on our Scotland trip, I thought a factory visit round Morgan with some McLarens would be a very interesting contrast between two great British (still!) car makers and not too far from some great roads!.
So a Morgan factory tour at 10:30AM on Friday 22nd April at this address

http://www.morgan-motor.co.uk/contact-us-2/

There is a charge of £15/person
I'll organise a lunch stop and Friday drive as well

Friday night we are stopping in mid Wales (PM me for details)

The rate is £75/person/night based on a couple sharing a room. £10/night extra for single rooms or £20/night extra for single occupancy double room.
This includes the evening meal.

Saturday we have a nice drive in and around the Elan Valley area and back to the hotel. Feel free to stop an extra night if you wish!


Here's a few pics to give you an idea smile

Molly and I would to come along. Should even have the RS by then! Highly recommend The Metropole in Llandrindod Wells to stay. Justin the owner is a proper Petrol Head.

I reckon a trip over to see Justin with Bruce might be in order wink
