Thought I would advertise this on here as I'm sure there are people who aren't aware about it.





In 1986 the first annual convention was held at Bruntingthorpe in Leicestershire. A venue since used by various other clubs, since the Peugeot GTI club paved the way. The Annual convention continued to be financed by Peugeot until 1995, which enabled the club to hire Silverstone for a number of years. Having to be self-financing was proving to be challenging, and less expensive venues had to be found. The Motor industry proving ground, nr Nuneaton turned out to be a great venue from 1998 through to 2000, but restrictions on this venues usage meant another venue had to be found. ‘Pugfest 01’ was subsequently held as a static event in 2001, but then with track days ever more popular, and the availability of circuits getting more and more expensive, as well as hard to find, the committee struck upon the idea of a hill climb. In 2002 the famous Prescott Hill in Gloucestershire was booked, where the Convention has been held ever since. Since 2001 the convention has been called ‘Pugfest’ and has attracted thousands of visitors. Why not join us at the next one? ‘Pugfest 10’ will be at Prescott Hill on the 4th July 2010 where the club is planning to celebrate its 25 years of Peugeot enthusiasm. All Peugeot owners are welcome to the event, with the gates opening at 9am.


This year at Pugfest we aim to make it the biggest gathering of Performance and modified Peugeot's in the UK. From the PSOOC we will have displays from the 1FM register, Goodwood register, and hope to have a selection of 206 Gran Tourisme's. Obviously we will have the usual local group displays as well as the 405 Le Mans on show, plus of course a huge range of everything from 104's through to the latest RCz's
