I know this has been mentioned quite a bit in the main thread, so I thoought it warranted a separate one.

How many are we looking at meeting there? Are the chaps from south of there going to meet up there too?
ie- Surrey, London, Essex, Herts, Reading.......

There is a huge amount of parking to accomodate everyone and services for coffee, food, loo's, cashpoints, etc, so it would be the perfect venue to gather.
Is meeting up with other regions along the way too ambitious?

Look forward to hearing from everyone interested

I suggested 8:30 to 9:00am. It is only an hour and halfs blast away really though. But it would give us time to stop and admire our cars a t service areas on the way etc etc

Should also mean we get good parking spots at Chatsworth if there a little earlier.

Just my 2 penneth worth...

Cheers

Mark
PS - Praying the car will be ready in time !!!

I suggest that it will be the Service area car park between 8:30 and 9:00am. There rather than in the garage.

Cheers
