Default The 4th Owners Club meet 18th March 2007

This is the news that some of you have been waiting for. The next Owners Club meet will be held on March 18th 2007 at the Haynes International Motor Museum http://www.haynesmotormuseum.com/home/index.html Sparkford, Yeovil, Somerset, BA22 7LH.



This is being held on the dream car day at Haynes museum which will include the following.

Our own parking area outside the main entrance to the museum which is exclusive to us, the car park adjacent to ours will have Ferrari's and Lamborghini's from the museum parked up.

Entrance to the dream car day which is being held on Haynes own test track and will consist of the following. A range of cars are being brought out of the museum for the day and being driven around the circuit. It is possible to get rides in these vehicles but that is nothing to do with us so anyone interested in that you would have to speak to the museum to book. Rides range in price from £15 - £30 for eight laps of the track.

Some of the cars taking part are

Lamborghini Countach

Ferrari 250gt

Aston Martin DB4

Bentley

Viper V8

Lotus Elise

Caterham 7

Default Update on Ken's Update on the Haynes Meet

Further to Ken's update above, here is just a bit more information about the venue itself. Ken and I both went to take a look at the place and also take a look at the parking situation - apologies that it has taken me just over a week to get this out but work has kept me busy!

Anyway, Haynes is a nice place!

Starting with the entrance:


Our cars will be in the area directly outside the main entrance and further up onto the driveway - parking is going to be tight, but we are confident we can conjure up space (there is also an overflow space available to us if we are really successful and huge numbers turn up!)


There is a nice well stockled gift-shop inside the main entrance and a restaurant alongside.

There is much to see inside, such as, the red room (or is it hall?)



Caught sight of a few MG/Rover bits and bobs such as:



and



But plenty of other cars to see, old ...



and new ...



For the kiddies there is somewhere to spend mum and dad's hard earned cash:




Outside the main entrance (to one side) the sporty cars will be on show and further along is the track where if you pay up and queue, you can get to ride in one of the 'dream cars' on the track (and no, we are NOT talking about Alex's car!!! )

Everyone turning up will be handed a card/ ticket at the gate and that will admit you and your family/ mates at the (cheaper) entrance rates Ken quoted at the beginning of this thread. We might even take a photo of each car as it comes in as we did in Beaulieu! (if you are even more patient)

As parking is REALLY going to be tight I would ask that you be patient and follow the instructions and let the club marshal park you up good and proper ... or else!!!

Its going to be fun - see you all there!
