It would be great to meet up at Beaulieu, but there will not be an official MK1 perf Cons stand this year.

I am hoping to attend, but have far to much on in real life to do more than that.

You went last year didn't you Tom ? , they haven't moved Bulee further south have they ? :lol:

It is a long way for us to but me and Steve went in his rally car last year and the hours just fly by when your both talking bollocks. :lol: It's the only static show worth going to in my humble and always right opinion so well worth the trip (and the hangover !). :D

The Newcastle & Durham Region of the MCR + freinds will be putting on a smallish display of cars this year - your welcome to join us if you have a car you don't mind people poking holes in! :lol: I've provisonally reserved eight spaces and have six cars already (five Mk1's & a MK2 trav) but there's probably scope to increase numbers.

Let me know.

Niall.

In previous years I've added a few days holiday on to make it worth while but last year we drove there and back in a day... 12 hours in the car... with leather and cruise control ;)

When is it this year?
It's the first time for about 4 years that I've had a mini on the road, I might wander along this year.
