Is it members only?
I think so. (But there are quite a few members on here - they just keep very quiet, like Brexit supporters at an Islington dinner-party.)
It has also been 'sold out' for about 6 months, I think.
I suppose they might entertain a member of the Press on the day..... Although they are a bit 'classic-classics' not 'modern-classics' !

Well, I’m just around the corner. I’ve tried making contact with the club a few times, but to no avail.
Odd really, as aside from the odd MC12 feature in Evo/Octane, and Auto Italia’s doings, we’re the only mainstream, multi-marque mag that bothers to cover more modern Maseratis in any great detail on a semi-regular basis.

On that note, here’s a preview of the next issue...

I think they might have gone but let us know you are who is joining in (I want to try and make something more interesting of the route across, rather than just a trundle along the A whatevers)- originally all tickets went within 6 hours - we missed out by a couple of minutes - but they said we could stay in the only other hotel and join in on the runouts and dinner

Yeah, I was too slow making my mind up.

I did start to look at a route. Maybe something like below (the Brixham-Holcot-Walgrave detour was partly as I used to know that area as a child) :

Just popped over, but not a car in sight!

Just a flag next to an empty private car park. Guess they’re off for a spin in the countryside.

Nice place this though. Poor French market stall holders are being blown away!!

Zut alors!

Yes we were probably all gone by 11 taking scenic routes to grafton water where the windsurfers were flying. Most are probably back now and off to Stamford for lunch tomorrow- again taking scenic routes

Yes if anyone wanted to see/join, then the cars will be parked up in Oundle tonight (semi-secret location) and then people will be off 10 ish to Stamford via Rutland Water.
