Peterborough BL Day? (7th August)

[mnde]

http://www.bmcblrally.co.uk/1.html

 

We've got enough Aggro, 1100, Princess, Maestro etc. owners & fans on here to have a good turnout. I've been to this twice (in a friend's Allegro) and it's been a cracking event.

 

Anyone up for going? I think I've got a prior family engagement ... but I'll see..

 

 

Mark.

[theorganist]

If I have the Allegro MOT'd and taxed by then I may be up for it!

 

Although I am playing the organ in the morning so not sure what time I would be able to get there!!

[Angrydicky]

I *should* be there, probably in this, if I can get it all road legal by then.

 

[meggersdog]

I will be there in the Maestro so look out for this (on trade plates as the tax ran out)

 

[Alexg]

Dont forget Metros- I should be there!

[254575]

i'll be there in one of the maestros on the owners club stand. feel free to come say hi!

[dollywobbler]

For the first time in many years, I won't be there.

 

If you've never been, you simply must go. It's an absolute Shite-fest! There's usually an excellent range of vehicles.

[wuvvum]

I'm hoping to be there if I can get the Innocenti sorted before then. Not sure I'd trust the Aggro for that distance at the moment with the CV joint as bad as it is - plus I'd have to tax it, and ideally get the suspension pumped up. Either that or I could just rock up in the LDV van - that's vaguely BL-related.

I really want to go to this, it may fall on a day I am on holiday, so, with some persuasion, I could ask my mum to take me there, footing the fuel bill or something.

Where will you be on holiday? Perhaps some fellow shiter could help.

[brammy777]

No idea yet, may not even be on it at that time, thanks to some staff fucking around at my mums work again. And I need to check if I can even get the time off of work first, which I probably cannot...

[Alexg]

Well I'll be heading up from Kent if any shiteists need a lift.

[garycox]

Do you need to book/buy tickets in advance etc or can you just turn up?

 

I'd be up for going in the Allegro.

[Lankytim]

I'll be dragging the maestro-van trailer up with the Audi I think!

[dollywobbler]

Just turn up Gary. I'll be driving from Norwich to Croydon that day, so I'll keep an eye out for northbound chod.

[garycox]

I'll probably come along then, I'm willing to give any shiters between Sussex and Peterborough a lift too obviously. (Barrett?)

[boobydoo]

Spending a Sunday looking at old Itals and Ambassadors has a strange appeal...I will try and make this.

 

Will any shiters be displaying...and would anyone object if I turned up in BL rival? Say, an Alpine? I wouldn't want to put their old chod to shame!!

[dollywobbler]

Wouldn't worry too much about non-BL stuff. Mash took his gorgeous Datty 1000 one year - I think the same year that I took my 2CV. They have an 'others' parking area.

[brammy777]

Looks like I will be coming to this now, rather excited for it!

[Angrydicky]

Does anyone know how much it will be to just turn up on the day? The website just says it will be extra (plus Nene Park entry fee) but it doesn't say how much!

[Alexg]

Do you need to book/buy tickets in advance etc or can you just turn up?

 

I'd be up for going in the Allegro.

 

You can just turn up and be part of the show, 'just follow the non pre booked lane' I'm told.

 

I'll be in the a red 'G' plate Metro GTI complete with AS sticker, any Autoshitists feel free to come and say Hi! I'll be on my own as the Mrs thinks it might be shit...

[garycox]

If the car's back on the road, I'll be there. It's at a garage awaiting clutch atention at the moment.

[Craig the Princess]

Spending a Sunday looking at old Itals and Ambassadors has a strange appeal...I will try and make this.

 

If you are looking at Ambassadors say hi, (hopefully) we will have two there on the club stand.

[Lankytim]

I'm going in the AUDI. I was hoping to tow the Maestro van trailer and blag my way onto the maestro stand, but its out of action ATM.

[George-Roper]

Might be tempted to go myself as who can ever tire of looking at bl shite Hmmmm Harvest Gold

Whats the admission price for a non exibitor though as I seem to have missed it?

[Lankytim]

Nobody seems to know that secret!

[garycox]

Allegro's fixed now so I'll be there!

[George-Roper]

Nobody seems to know that secret!

 

No shit sherlock

[Angrydicky]

I'll be there too, if anyone spots me feel free to say hi!
