They've got a proper restaurant area and you can also eat in the bar areas so it probably depends on what time you're planning to arrive

Guys, I've just came back from Swanley where I was fiddling with my mate around his RS4 and after 7 hours of car not moving I have decided to check the oil. To my surprise level was around min and we have noticed that there is a small leak on the passenger side around the seal, very top side cover where the engine coils are.
Last Saturday oil level was higher and I haven't done many miles as usual over the week. There is sign of oil, not huge leak, looks like its spraying just enough from under the gasket to get me to min level. So I'm afraid its a no go for me to tomorrow's meet, and I'm not happy about that at all. I don't really want to top up oil and drive distance in case it gets worst or whatever, I'm just to an@l about things like that as you know and I'm already stressed enough even if there is still enough oil and there is no other damage or problem. I just want to get my Audi guys to do both sides for me asap so I can drive stress free again. I'm really sorry guys, I was really prepared for it and I was really looking forward to some catching up. I hope you will have a great day and good weather

It comes on with a big red light when it gets too low, and that's well below the "min" mark. Been there, done that, no adverse effects.
Funnily enough it happened on the way to a meet - the Forest of Dean one in 2013. I just called in at the first petrol station and added a litre of Shells finest synthetic at some ludicrous price.

Well I'll still be there, even with all this rain. I'm currently north of London and will be heading off soon, I've made the trip up here just for this meeting so will not be missing it, rain or shine.

Morning guys
Yes, the yellow light did came on. I've just went to check the oil level again because I've had problems with oil sensor before but the problem is that ground isn't really level and at the minute it shows 3/4 between min and max, but car is leaning to the oil dip stick side by about 15mm out of absolutely level position. Level was higher than that last Saturday. I'm not a fan of driving over 100miles with a oil leak spraying all over my immaculate engine bay By the way I broke my phone on Friday and I can't see or send messages or hear, make or receive calls in case any one tried to contact me this morning as I've see some new missed calls and messages, but unable to see what they are

Thanks for Organising Neil, nice to put a few more faces to names.
Got stuck on the way back to Dorset, perhaps the A3 was not the best option. The Hindhead tunnel southbound was closed and the barriers came down when I was about 200 yards from the entrance. Sat there for almost an hour going nowhere, as several police cars weaved their way through the cars. Turns out there was a three car pileup in the tunnel, which we were allowed to drive past as they cleared the stuck traffic, once they cleared a lane of debris.

Many thanks Neil, good meet despite the weather! Hamilton's victory did help.
Interesting to see so many D3's, especially the LWB ones.
