Hi there,

Yesterday saw the Alpine Owners Spring Meet take place.

What started out as a small idea from me turned into a mega event thanks to the help of Nicola Burnside (head of Alpine UK) and her team.

We had 4 groups on the day and a series of activites which the groups rotated around to. My group began with a tour of Silverstone Museum alongside 10 other owners, before a cross country drive to Bicester Heritage to meet with the other groups. The sight of 10 Alpines in the rear view mirror as we convoyed over was truly memorable. Once at Bicester it was time for a phot shoot over lunch and then some track time in the Alpine demo fleet including the very special A110R. To finish the day a guided tour of Bicester Heritage which was fascinating.

A huge thanks to all involved and 43 Alpines was an amazing sight.



I will share more pics in the coming days.

Regards

Tim

You were 6 miles from where I live and I didn't even know about it. Of which club should I be a member?

Tim mentioned it here from the beginning of January but it was mainly through the FB Owners group

Hi,

In total there were about 50 places, I was given 20 or so to allocate to owners as the others had been given to dealers for them to invite some of their customers.

I posted the event on the A110 Owners Group on Facebook and the places went very quickly.

We are working on more events and also a plan to try and get 110 x A110's in the same place.

Regards

Tim

I was lucky enough to get a place through Tim. One of the best days I’ve had in a long time. Such a great group of people everyone is so friendly and welcoming. I’ve attended a few meets now and this was the best yet but even the lower key events are still brilliant. .
Thanks to Tim and Alpine for pulling this together and also hi to all the owners I met, some familiar faces and a lot of newbies joining the club. Looking forward to the next.
Steve, one of the orange ones!

Damn Facebook. Sometimes sitting up on this high horse of non-membership really has its drawbacks.

Thanks.

Lovely to see a flock (?) of Alpines, and, my word, how much work went into the colour coordination? Looks great.

Maybe that target of 110 cars is entirely possible, (including me perhaps).

Keep up the good work.

Thanks, yes it certainly took some organising.
