Dear fellow Countach owners,

after discussion with Paul, who attempted this last year and with his support, I am looking to organise another attempt for a Countach gathering.

The locale will be north of London but south of Birmingham around the M1 / M40 corridors and all are welcome to attend. Exact details to be confirmed but the format will be a meet n great (hopefully somewhere historic, dependant upon numbers) then an approximate 1 hour-ish drive to a country hotel for Sunday lunch.

I'm keeping the format very simple so as to hopefully maximize turnout and allow owners flexibility. I appreciate for some owners, the locale will be a long journey so up to you if you wish to book accommodation on the Saturday and make a weekend of it. It is peak hotel season, hence the decision to leave this up to the individual concerned.

Date: Sunday 12th July

I'm hopeful that many can attend but, will still look to run the gathering even if numbers are low. As you have to start somewhere!

I'm looking for this to be a CT only meeting only at this stage.

Please would you add your forum name to list below if you can attend.

My regards
Rob

Hi Andrew, both You and young Valentino would be most welcome.

Guess I'd better get going to confirm the locale(s) so you "possibles" can confirm. :-)

Cheers
Rob

Will you open this up to Lamborghini owning, but non-Countach owners?

Let me/us know........

Hi Anjum, Early days at the moment. I'll like to see what the uptake is. I have a number of slots in mind, post this number, it becomes more of an organisational headache.

I'm aware of two other CT possibles at this time and will give the thread more time for other CT owners stake a claim.

My best
Rob

Hi Paul,

yes! certainly a challenge but hopefully we can get a few cars together. If you can make then I'll sure you get the accolade for the furthest traveled! Be great if you are able to.

Hi Footsoldier, sorry fella, but being a soft southern shandy drinking virgin, I did not think much outside of English school holidays. You could have dropped the car to Mike for some service action whilst down. If your plans change please let me know.

For the non owner but Countach loving posters, as mentioned to Anjum, I'll run the thread for some time yet, to understand the uptake. Shall see where we are a bit later on.

cheers all
Rob

Rob - moves are afoot to explain why we should start holidays on 14th...

So, put me down as a probable for now.

PS - please not too far south of Birmingham; I couldn't stand upright for a few days after driving home from mike Pullen's last year, and that was just one -way!

Hi matey, added to the list. I'm talking to venues at the moment. Is it possible to drive down on the Sat, stay over then head up post meet? Break it up a bit etc?

Cheers
Rob

Yes - only half joking about distance...

I'll make it there on Sat and now confirmed holiday flights for 14th, to make sure I get home first!

So, you can now put me down as a definite, and keep me posted

Thanks
Legendary! Sounds like you could pick up the award for the furthest traveled :-) All I can hope for is for Paul to be able to make it as well. Just to keep you company on the way down / up.

Thanks to those who have committed so far. Behind the scenes, I've been speaking to other owners so the list could grow over the next few weeks. As mentioned, the private lunch event has been booked and car parking reserved. As the event is at sufficient numbers, it's a go go go :-) So any missing Countach owners,there is capacity for you to join, get involved and come along!

With regards to the "pre-meeting" venue, I have what I think will be an interesting option. But need minimum numbers to make it work. Not quite there yet in this respect but hopeful to be soon and will put the option out there for consideration.
