  • 2015/2016 Event Ideas for Coupe meet -

    Anyone have any idea's for a large scale forum meet in 2015, something other than Silverstone Classic or Gaydon?

    I guess there are two choices, either pick a prior organised meet eg Goodwood or pick a location. The problem with the latter is what do you do, the problem with the former is the cost and ease of parking together etc

    Could almost do with meeting at somewhere like a car museum, Beaulieu, Donington museum, easy to park but also something to do, organise a tour?

      Donnington is a good central venue.

        Donnington - It is where the last record meet was held (67 cars) back in 2005. It was part of a day of GT car racing with two teams entering race prepared Z3MCs. We had a separate area to line up all the cars (pics in gallery), tour round the pits and a lap of the circuit.
        It is probably the most central location with the best facilities. Need to pick the right race meeting with some good cars to go and watch, plus there is also a great museum to look round.
        I'd be up for it.

          Beaulieu have a German car show each year, think May/June time.

          Its a smallish event (couple of hundred cars when I attended a few years ago) but a great location. Far from UK central though.

            I know not specifically coupe related but over on zroadster.org Duncan is organising for us to go on the London to Brighton Rally which I think will be a fantastic event and great if we could get some of you coupe guys involved.

            Here is a link to the thread enquiring about interest;

            https://zroadster.org/threads/london...terested.5641/

            For those of you who do not know Duncan he is the chap that has organised the Zedfest at Silverstone for the past few years and is usually very meticulous in his organisation so I am sure this will be as ever a very well organised event for us all and a great oportunity to revel in all the nostalgia of this event.

                      Donnington

                      is a good spot depends whats on.

                      Goodwood festival of speed is great but its bloody miles away

                      needs to be where there's something on where we can park away from the door dingers and a focal point where we can meet up

                      what about that thing that chris evans organises ??? cat remember the name

                      if its central we could get a decent sized meet with more northerners and jocks coming down.
                      don't know if the southerners would go past Watford though

                      Ah I remember now Car fest any one been before ?

                        I understand that the air is thinner north of Watford, so portable oxygen required.

                        Might not be true of course!!

                          Problem with car fest (North or South) is the cost which may put some people off as I think is the same problem with Silverstone Classic?

                            I propose Dave's house where we have a garage sale of his 3,247 spare parts

                            OK, actually Donington sounds like a great location.

                              Yep I can see what your saying but it needs to be something to keep you occupied all day.
                              for that you will pay

                              we could meet up for a blast around the lakes but would people travel for that im not sure

                              what about this
