PH Sunday Service - August 3rd

It's time to worship at the Church of PistonHeads again...

---

It’s been a while but the PH Sunday Service is back! Those of you who turned up in East Sussex last February for the previous event will know that it exceeded all expectations.The next one is at Haynes International Motor Museum on August 3 and you can expect the same mix of metal, chat and general motoring mumblings.

The Sunday Service takes place in the main car park of the museum, which is situated at Sparkford Somerset and is surrounded by some great driving roads. It is the largest international motor museum in Britain and features more than 340 cars and bikes dating from 1886 to the present day.

On the day of the Sunday Service there is also a special supercars exhibition with over £2m of cars on display for the first time at the museum. The Sunday Service is free and will start at 10am although PHers who bring their cars do get a discounted entry to the museum of £5.50 if they wish to have a look around. Food and drink will be available to buy at the museum café.

If you would like to come down register your interest on the thread below so that we have an idea of numbers…

When it's in Sussex, I'm in the Midlands.

When I'm going to be in Kent - right next door to Sussex - it's in Somerset!!!

[Daggerpie]

Ahhh knickers, im the same, Porsche fest at Gaydon that sunday!!

[Straighteight]

No such problems for me. I'm in Cornwall for family holidays. Oh hang on. I'm driving an eight-seater minibus.

East Sussex to Somerset is perhaps a little far to go for a PH meet...

[Miles Perry]

Hi Count me in,
I will be there in my Sunday best, so long as its not rainin. My Westie Busa has no rudder as well as reverse! Great to see some action out here in the West too.

[thewave]

516 mile round trip

[evosport]

[V8loudpedal]

yeah superb

il be there burbling away with my Cerbera

[GingerNinja]

Somerset - I'm guessing the turnout may be less than impressive than the last one.

Although, for those turnip truck spotters, it'll be obligatory.

[dubkiller]

you will be surprised by the amount of people who live in the rest of the country. good idea to have differant area meets.
ill be there in my turnip.

OOOOO im game for this even if i own a french banger , as its only a short hop down the 303 ....

[Family Guy]

Sounds good to me. Should be able to make it. Just checked and it's only about 90 miles away

Went to the Haynes museum about 6 years ago, great place and the smell is superb.

Can't remember the car park being very big though.

[G4HKS]

Well I hope it's a bigger location than the last meet in Sussex - that was a joke to be honest. The Cafe up a narrow flight of stairs was equally hilarious. Arrived at 8:00am and the traffic jam had already started in and out of the location.

There was a Gaydon meet a year or so ago, unfortunately the weather was mediocre and a lot of people didn't bother...

...so they haven't done another one.

But as said above, if you want to research a few venues, find out who'd be prepared to put us up, then advertise it, go right ahead...

[ffelan]

gaydon is not exactly in the north is it?

what about a proper northern meet?, were poor up here and the roads are cobbled - probably the most off road you shandy swilling southerers will have been in your chelsea tractors.....
so we can be doing 600+ mile trips to somerset.
