I am hoping to come (missed out on the Porsche event due to family commitments !)

As this is a Mercedes event, I am bringing my trusty classic W124 Estate and was wondering if it is OK to also bring the family (wife and two young boys) along to the event ?

Will this be OK ?
Bringing the family along is fine, but I hope your E220 isn't nicer than mine smile (see pics in my profile)

Oh, and I'll ask Mr Will to look at the calendar issue too, sorry chaps.

Your computer regards Pistonheads.com and Pistonheads.co.uk as two completely websites, so if you are logged in to one you will not necessarily be logged in to the other.

As the calendar link in the story was to Pistonheads.com, if you normally use Pistonheads.co.uk you will not have been logged in on the .com version of the site that you ended up on once you clicked it.

I've corrected the link in the story now, so it will direct you to which ever version you are already on and should work fine.

Same problem as 5678. I'm logged in but says I'm not so can't add name.
It's REALLY annoying!

(If a mod can just add me then that would be great. I'll be in the 650.)
I'm logged in too but keep being told I'm not, sort it out PH Webmaster!
You're on there?
Yes, used a different browser and managed to get on..

Is it bad form to turn up in Merc that is rusting into tiny pieces?

Last time they had Smart Car football on their skidpan, then most of the day were people going round the high speed track and the skidpan too. They obviously have the cars on display and PH cars on display too.

Added to list. thumbup

Now lets hope the weather is fine, only a shortish trip so would be nice to take the Caterham rather than the daily.

Apart from speed rides round the track, skidpan experiences, drag staight, MB car collection, MB new car collection, Brooklands museum next door, old parts of the track to walk on, and 700 pistonheads cars to look at, there is noting to do.

perhaps you best stay in bed and watch re runs on the X factor from the day before!laugh

I'll be well up for this as it'll be my 1st one smile

Are we allowed to bring any old car along? As lots of people on here have stunning cars and I just have an old Alfa doh!
