Did anyone here go to the national day /SL day a couple of weeks ago?

Mercedes Owner website has only a few photos which doesnt really show how good the event was?
Anyone got photos to share?


Also is anyone going to go to the W124 day in Lake district on 1st Sept?

I am taking my diseasel to the w124 day. I think Derin is going, too.

My experience of these Merc Club events--I have been to a National Day and a couple of SL Days--is positive but mixed. There is some serious weird as well as the more generally appreciated beard, but everyone seems friendly enough and united by a perverse love of all things Mercedes. I enjoyed it more when I went with a like-minded friend than alone. This time I'm going with my 2.5yr old son. Anyway, feel free to button hole me: my estate car is smoke silver, L482 LVV.

Sadly local events to myself have ''stuttered'' of late due to organisation. Some upset local members.

I am trying to decide about going to the W124 day. Technically the entry date has passed - but there is an opening. What they are not coming back to me on though is parking. Is it on site - or back at the Lake ? If its not too sunny I would bring the dogs rather than leaving them with a dog sitter. But is equally dependent on parking arrangements. My query is being bounced around the organisers.

I would expect Nev Wright will be there - nearer to you than me, R129. Nobody will have a cleaner 124 than Nev - and a top bloke.

It looks like they have a designated area. That's normally the case.
