Ford WRC (M Sport) factory visit

[snapper8v]

I fancy visiting M Sport's premises again http://www.m-sport.co.uk/tours.html so I'm just testing the water to see if there's any interest. If you're interested (there will be a charge set down by M Sport) then please submit your name. Thanks.

Sounds good

Sounds good!

I'd be interested but it'd be subject to when Baby Nr 3 is born. If too close (i.e. around 30th June), i'd have to say no.

we went a couple of years ago. Cost about £20 - great tour. well recommended.

[snapper8v]

The dates that are available at the moment are:-

15th June, 22nd June and 10th August. Cost is £20pp + VAT. We need to arrive there (Cockermouth) before 5 P.M. and the tour will last approx 2.5hours, although the last time that we were there, we didn't leave until 9ish if I remember correctly! A minimum number of 10 is required although if we don't meet this, then we'll be tagged along with another group. Please let me know which date is more favourable please? Thanks.

Damnation! First two dates I'm on hols and the third I'm at a wedding. Oh well, maybe next time...

[buggalugs]

Any of those is fine with me, just let me know which it ends up on so I can block it out.

[snapper8v]

I've also posted up on 2 other forums just to (hopefully) get the numbers. At the moment, 22nd June is looking favourite. I'll post up in a day or so.

[snapper8v]

I've just spoken to M-Sport and the date is now confirmed as 22nd June.

I've paid a £50 deposit to secure the date and I'd now ask for those that are interested in attending to send a cheque made payable to J.CLIFT for the amount of £23.50 (£20.00 + VAT @ £3.50) to 47 MOSS SIDE WAY LEYLAND PRESTON, LANCS. PR26 7XU along with an accompanying letter please, or, if you'd prefer, bank transfer.

I have 9 people who've expressed interest so far and we're limited to a maximum of 17. Thanks.

Will get the cheque on it's way to you. Do you mind if I ask a friend of mine along as well? He's a bit of a Ford nut and I think he'd really enjoy it.
