Visiting Guy is only 2.5 hours for us and under the right circumstances is easily doable.
But just for Mark Guy's offering is not very far from the A34 (You know what I mean Mark) :rockin:

I was happy enough with the leopard last year it's close enough for me from north of Manchester. I know it's a bit of trek from Scotland though.

[quote=Architex_mA8tey;103274]I was looking at the possibility of the Gaydon Motor Museum and the Leopard again as they are extremely close, but the Gaydon Museum has just closed its doors for a revamp and will be re-born as the "British Motor Museum" in |February next year so that will bee one for another day.

i think its going to be called..

I don't thinl I will be going this year because 8 is off road without MOT since September. I have not gone to MOT because it has oil leak, it's not too bad and it might pass MOT as it is, just couple of drops on the driway but I wanted to sort it out first before going for MOT. Just have not had time, I think it is probably from gearbox frnt diff but have not had a proper look yet.

Parking for 60 cars + and 4000 square feet of workshop to tinker in and the tipple in pub right next door and sevanak forrest just up the road.
I'm sure the pub could accommodate us for lunch ! +++

Thanks Guy but I'm thinking further north than that to get as many people as possible coming. We will however try to organise a southern meet in the spring which involves Beaulieu Car Museum visit followed by a cruise to the workshops where we could either have a barbecue or go to the pub for food +++

We are now becoming rather close to the Xmas period and we need to make plans. Otherwise management will say she has prior claim 'cos of arrangements already made.
Please organise something so that I can escape, pretty please.
