Car Related Things To Do

[The Moose]

Anything to do car related on Tues/Wed/Thurs next week?

Pretty flexible on location.

I've got an air filter that needs replacing in my Alfa 156. Bring GT-85

(Sorry, I'm surprised you haven't been inundated with daft posts like this.)

Morgan factory tour most days I imagine.

Lotus factory tour fairly frequent.

Scottish Transport Museum in Glasgow, free. Other museums available.

Hire an interesting car for the day in all sorts of corners of the country.

My car needs a wash and vacuum .

We have the car(s) sorted, thank you. Will be doing a road trip of some sort - maybe head into Wales.

Looking for something else to do that is car or motorcycle related...that doesn't involve changing some random filter

If you're thinking of doing South or Mid-Wales, I'd be happy to suggest a route.

That is where my family originally came from (shhhh - don't tell anyone!). If you have some routes in that area, that would be great! Thank you

It's difficult to go wrong in Wales if you're on a bike. From memory I think the A44 is particularly good (?), and there's a biker-friendly cafe at Crossgates, I don't know how busy it is during the week though.

There's the National Motorcycle Museum just off the motorway near Birmingham Airport, and Coventry has the National Transport Museum. Took the kids to the latter a year or two back, that was a good day out.

I haven't done the Morgan factory tour but I hear it's excellent. I think Norton motorcycles near Donnington do factory tours on Friday - I have done this and it was fascinating.

I can't do any of these this weekend because I'll be changing my bloody air filter

S. Gonzales Esq very kindly sent me some road suggestions for Wales. Thank you for taking the time.

We actually got called back to London early so weren't able to take in many of the roads that were suggested. We did, however, have a play of some roads in the area. I will post a photo of where we ended up in due course.
