The British Motor Museum, Gaydon, Warwickshire - 26 May 2019

[developer]

About time you turned up, last time I was at Gaydon I was with you.

I remember it well - our two E63's among a group of W/S210's - it will be good to see some old (not you Sarah) faces

Hi folks

I’ve been in contact with the museum regarding our visit on the 26 May. Our parking area will be in the “Northern Arena” indicated on the site plan. We have been asked not to arrive before 10.00am. I’m unfamiliar with the museum so I don’t know if it is a problem arriving earlier.

The normal entry fee to the museum is £14.50 per person. We have a concessionary rate of £10 per person but to obtain that we must enter as a group of at least 12 with the organiser, ie myself.

As people will be arriving at various times and may not want to rush off into the museum I’d propose those wanting to obtain the concessionary rate join me at the museum entrance at 10.30am to obtain their entrance sticker. Once you have paid and been issued with a sticker you may enter the museum at any time during the day.

Thanks

Andy

Not much else to sort now other than hope it’s dry and get a list of who will be meeting up at the M1 Woodhall Services to drive down together. Plan will be to leave there at 8.00am and go via M1, A42, M42, M40 leaving at Junction 12 (unless we find someone has decided to put roadworks on).

I could meet you there if I go. Asked another friend who has a C63 if he fancies it.

That’s where my partner is anyway, I’m from Northants... so it’s possible she may meet me there and I go A45 direction unless I pick her up and then it’ll be from Ricoh side. Got another owner from Cov I’m going to ask now as he’s not a member on here I don’t think, he has a 507

Not another white one is it? Coupe? I have been told about one local ish to me but haven't seen it.

His is silver mate. I’ve not seen any 507’s around Cov, seen a regular one once... in four years of frequenting the area

To be fair, I could maybe count on one hand c63’s I’ve spotted on any road each month travelling up and down the uk, don’t see many and especially never a 507!

M3/M4’s? Different story they’re everywhere

Also Banbury on the Saturday and fancy travelling up the old Warwick Rd to Gaydon in the morning, which I used to do many years ago in what now feels like a previous existence. There was no M40 in those days...

Sounds like a plan

 

[PobodY]

At the moment it looks like I'll be coming down the M40 in the morning rather than staying in the Cotswolds as originally suggested by my wife; mostly so that we can be on the Roaches early on the Monday.
