This maybe a silly question but.. Is the parking only for coupes? I mentioned this to a friend of mine and would like to come, he owns a Abarth stilo

Sorry have to drop out, been given the honor of changing the guard at the Tower of London.

I was up at Stamford Hall 2 weeks ago. Hope all the puddles has dried-up, still trying to get all the mud off of the car.

Are we meeting up anywhere first

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!

Ginger Beer Promos / Auto Italia

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.

OK - the plan for the Midlands group is Bassetts Pole (Maccy D's car park) at 9:00 - leaving at about 9:30, then onto Corley service (east-bound) at around 10:00am, leaving at about 10:30 - will arrive at Stanford Hall at about 11:00

Anyone from further afield that wants to hook up with us is welcome

im just off j7 m4

Ah, I'm just off the M40! I think it would be easier to meet at Ace. Arm is much nearer you but probably a little late to organise anything now. See you all at ace in a couple of hours

The weather here is good.

We have a different pitch this year, beside the lake on the right as you drive in.

Have fun guys, I'm on standby!

Brilliant turnout, glad I made the effort.
It's been a while since I've seen 20-odd coupes lined up together, great to meet up with everyone again.

Wish we had meets like this up north!!

Nice to see you again Rob and yes, great turnout

Few pics

Never been to one of these does before. Have to agree, it was good to see all the coupes together. It was great to meet you. Hope you had a good journey home!

You too Mike. Got home in two and a half hrs, roads were pretty quiet once I got past Manchester.

Good luck with the sales.

Genuinely gutted I missed this..

really enjoyed this event , smaller than brooklands but i thought a much friendlier crowd, had a good few chats with people interested in the coupes.
love the first two pics you posted jame5 !

Had a great day hope to make brooklands later this month

Did anyone else notice the Red 20V that was parked with the Fiat Forum crowd? Absolute Minter.

I'm guilty of that one Nello. Wouldn't go as far as minter either .

Thanks

Todger was it something we said?

No, I promised I would go with the FF crew before I even knew about you guys going to be honest. A lot of them know me from when I used to take chalky (seicento) so it was good to have a chat with them again.

Plus I got a free BBQ breakfast and lunch .

Thanks

Thanks
