Anyone else heading to the Sunday Service at the Mini Plant from London?

If there are any convoys already being organsied that will accept me tagging along or if there are other members going who fancy meeting up get in touch!

Hi Andy, if its not too far out of your way then you are welcome to join the convoy leaving from Guildford Cathedral. We are going to take the scenic route to the MINI and stop mid-way for a coffee / bacon roll break.

I'm going! Taking the old 6 series, so I'd be a little worried about holding you up. And that's assuming the old girl actually starts and makes it there after a couple of months sitting in the garage... Maybe you could give me a head start!?!

I'm thinking of going. Haven't had the old Alfa out for a few months, fancy a shakedown so at least you'll have someone behind you...... and I'm bound to break down!

Ha! Fair enough!

Whereabouts are you based? I'm just off the Kings Road, SW10.

I was planning to head up to Oxford for "early doors" coz I'll probably need to leave by 11.00ish.

We could meet in town, or somewhere on the A40, or anywhere else that suits...

Anyone else?

OK, you're not far away, I'm in Wimbledon. Fancied the Guildford run as it was going to be some A roads and hopefully a nice route but if you have any ideas that will be interesting then I'm up for it. If not we'll just tag on back of Guildford run.
Maybe our pair of W124's would be more reliable (and civilised)!

You might be right. I only bought the W124 as a winter hack, but it's performed faultlessly over the last couple of months / 1,500 miles. Brilliant old thing. It'll have to be sold soon and I'm going to miss it.

Well maybe I'll sign up to the Guildford trip as well and see you at the Cathedral. Won't take long to tonk down the A3 at that time of a morning.

Evening chaps, will be happy to see you both at Guildford. No need to worry about not keeping up etc, even though its a country drive there is no sillyness, just a cruise along the A / B Roads rather than the boring old motorway.

Plus we will be stopping mid-way for a tea/coffee and a bacon bap lick

Very nice cars you both have there!
