I think we should.

Last year I was parked up about a mile before the entrance waiting for our Birmingham members to turn up, when about 30 cinquecentos went passed. All I will say is that it looked impressive.

What time does it start?

Gates open 8:30 to 9am I believe.

Put me down for this one please

ps. Crumbs in a bucket! Is it really £13 each to get in?
Was it not £5 per car last time I went a few years ago?
Ah well, better visit the cash point on the way..

pps. I'm confused now. Apparently this is 'Summer Time Classics', which started in 2013. What's happened to what I know as 'Alfa Day' (which is probably where I remember the £5 entrance fee from...)?

Going to have to pull out I am afraid . Bet the weather will be great as well...

Paul from Motormech will be coming from South Birmingham (in Motormech's latest special Coupe acquisition) and I'll be coming from North Birmingham

Anyone fancy meeting up part-way for a convoy for the last few miles?

Staffs / West mids Coupes usually meet at Bassett's Pole and then hook up with the South Brum boys at Corley services on the M6

KMG - Stanford was indeed the venue for the original National Alfa day. I used to go in my old Giulia GT Junior. That moved on (Boughton House in May for the Alfa Anniversary). This one was initially the Midland Auto Italia day before it changed names (and prices!) Is it really £13 each?.... If so family can stay at home!

Admission prices

£13 Adults

£3 Children

jame5 , do you want to meet at the ace to convoy up there ?

What time will you be at Corley Nigel? Theres a chance if the clan are coming that I might go in my Delta but if they're not out of their lazy beds I'd be up for a meet up and convoy in the LE?

I'm thinking of meeting at Bassett's Pole at 9:00am, then Corley at about 10:00am

I'm not precious about the times though - if anyone has any other suggestions, I'm happy to be flexible

Sounds good to me.

Sounds like a plan, Ace cafe as usual? Any other southerners fancy a convoy?

i'll speak to EDz and Indy and find out a time to meet at the ace and let you know mate .

Michael Ward (Phil's son from Auto Italia) has linked some great previous photos of this event from the Ginger Beer Promotions info site for this meet - was just admiring them when I realised this is my car!

I'll let you know tomorrow Nigel if I'm in the Coupe and as such meeting at Corley once the clan have confirmed who wants to go. If not I'll be there later in the Delta.

8/8.15 at the ace , leaving at 8.30 James

Bassets pole and Corley confirmed then guys? I think it would be good if we can get enough coupes.

Anyone travelling. Down from the northeast

If there's room for one more, I'll hopefully catch up with you guys at Corley. If I can get away from Carlisle early enough, I'll try and make Basset's Pole.
