I am a recent member to the Forum and completely hooked on the Tuscan despite the neg bits. Getting to the point I live in the South of Spain and have a contact with a private circuit? Would anybody be interested if I were to organise a weekend meet later in the year..with use of circuit..no db restrictions, accommodation...tuition for anyone that needs it..and lashings of entertainment and guaranteed sunshine. I would love to hear from you as I would like to get the ball rolling if there is interest?

P.S. The event could not be held until I have a Tuscan so there!

Certainly not.
That sounds like absolutely no fun whatsoever, a totally unenjoyable waste of time.

When did you have in mind?

oh no! not another one - oh go on then!

whats's the date ?

(mind you in Southern Spain it's probably best to wait till December 18th - it will still be sunny and warm!)

Where abouts in Southern Spain, por favor ?

cheers

Can I take a guess at Guadix? If so have a look here www.circuitoguadix.com/paginas/home.htm Just a guess though.

I'm interested, as long as it is in September or beginning of October. Where exactly in Spain will this happen ?
What's the nearest TVR service point, because that might be important as well...

Thanks for the response!

Yes probably the circuit will be the one a Guadix (Granada) although there is another possibility near Ronda (Málaga).

I would probably be looking at September as a date.

Anybody or any TVR would be welcome.

I think the nearest service point for TVR is probably in DORSET but I am working on this issue. I know a couple of ex TVR engineers who live here...they probably retired as they were overworked!

I know it's all a bit in the air at the moment and I will keep you posted.

Yes please.....sunshine and Tuscans on the track? Sounds ideal....could even extend it to a few days at the beach for the better half!

This sounds very good! I'm guessing the best route is Plymouth-Santander and then the E5 down to Gaudix, hopefully with an overnight just outside Madrid somewhere.

I know it takes forever to drive that route North to South having waited in the South before!

Do we get to stay in Granada or La Bobadilla perhaps!!!

I'll try and get some prices on the Plymouth-Snatander ferry
