Duxford Imperial War Museum - car show 4th May - numbers



Hi folks

Following on from a successful spring car show at Duxford last year, I'm now starting the process of getting us registered for the Duxford Spring Car show this year (if everyone is up for it again, of course! biggrin)

The Duxford imperial war museum is located just south of Cambridge and is very easy to reach just off the M11 (a couple of minutes at most).

It can be reached from Stansted in just under 30-40mins up the M11.

Displaying at the show gives you free access to the entire museum site at a much cheaper rate than standard entry fees.

It is also the home of one of the best Air Museums in the world and is generally a great day out. bounce

Details of the show can be found here @ http://www.iwm.org.uk/events/iwm-duxford/spring-ca...
Details of Duxford can be found here @ http://duxford.iwm.org.uk/
Photos from previous shows can be found here @ http://s847.photobucket.com/user/alex_gray255/slid...

If you are interested in coming, then please put your names below so I can get the arrangements made to get us the right number of places!

This event is open to any regions who want to come. However, due to insurance reasons only TVRCC members can come with us.

Video from 2013 is here to give a taster of what it is like...

Many thanks!

You and your, we have a flag, therefore you need to be covered by TVRCC insurance rules :P!
Not my rules, mate. You'll have to blame Duxford for that one.

It is a little strange, as the PH Group has a big banner, which is about 20 feet long, not a flag, and no issues there :/ I might sneak in the back, of your group when your not looking :P
Then they obviously haven't read the paperwork correctly before signing it...

And I quote from the group entry form...

<<
  • Car clubs must hold Third Party Public Liability Insurance to the minimum value of £5 million if they wish to bring along a gazebo/ banner or trailer unit. This will need to be sent to IWM Duxford two weeks before the event, failure to do so will result in the structure being taken down
>>

It is there to protect if someone decides to sue for a silly reason.

Hi Phil

As long as they are valid members, yes. I've used different cars in the past biggrin

As long as they aren't daily drivers, should not be an issue.

Thanks!

Hi folks

Just spoke with Vicki at Duxford and she is happy for about 75 cars total from our club to come along,
so as we are now about at 65-70 cars, I can only accept a few more, then will have to say we have hit our
limit.

So, assume about 7 more places available then that will be it for this show.

Great attendance though biggrin

Cheers!

As long as one of the passengers is a TVRCC member - that's fine.
