This looks like it could be an interesting event to attend at Brooklands.

I have contacted Phil the organiser, and shown interest in attending. Its not just a static display, but you get to do five or six laps of the MB world test track. biggrin

Anyone else fancy joining in ?

Is that an Egyptian form of Suti or are you expecting warm weather?

I might make this - I live in Weybridge and I'm a club member of the museum. Not too fussed about driving the track but would like to meet other Aston owners.

Yes, I went along and had a fantastic time.

Not many Astons there, 3 DB9's a couple of DB7's and I briefly saw a V8VRS. Plenty of Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Porsches, and plenty of exotica.

The hill test was fun to watch, and the MBW track was a lot of fun.

A really friendly crowd, and a well organised event, and the sun shone. Happy days !

It was really well organised and apart. from the obligatory missed turn to Proctor and Gamble, well marshalled. Astons had a bit of a back seat. Loads of fezzas close to the clubhouse with quite a few lambos parked round the corner.
.
Weather was OK and the whole thing was well supported although for me, an hour was enough!

Yes I went too, without my Aston, and had a great day. Wanted to meet the other Aston owners but you were all away from your cars when they were parked up.

Thats because not many owners turned up in there AM's, there was a dedicated AM area, but when only a handful attended, the marshalls parked other marques of cars, such as a Delorean, and a Triumph Spitfire in the spaces.

Yes plenty of Ferraris, and Lamborghini 's, so maybe next time we can point some AM owners in the right direction, and make a display of it.

The few owners that were there, made the effort and drove the MBW test track, also a DB9 took to the test hill, all said they had a fantastic day and would be back.

So maybe next time AM's will not be taking the back seat !
