Sounds good to me. I'm definitely going to get myself there at some point next year. Possible for the Jumble.

Was down there at the weekend for the autojumble. Ended up just missing out at the Bonhams auction for a 1969 Mercedes 280SL in fantastic condition. I didn't want to go over £11,500 and it went for £11,750. Then found out that they are advertised at dealers for over £20k!! Missed the bargain of the year!

Ended up buying a concours MGB GT - you can see it here

sb-1, what a good idea. Steve and I were thinking of trying to organise a TVRCC multi-region meet at Beaulieu in 2004 (date not decided). I don't see why we couldn't make it a joint PH meet too!. If we can come up with a date before the AGM we can put it to some of the other regions and get this show on the road.
What do you think?

Sounds like a quality plan, I live down in Devon but love that drive, every time I go to Goodwood I enjoy those roads!

Have been discussing this with a few people and April seems to be the month of choice at present. May -Back Home, June - Le Mans, July - Pistonfest, August - Mania or everyone is on holiday, September - too far away!.
Your thoughts please.

April 17th is usually the date of the VSCC Race Meeting at Silverstone ... aside from that I'm not bothered.
