All can follow me again down the cut through to luton to join the m1 after the road works again if you like...

[superman]

What's going on?
This is weak!
Surely we can do better than this...

[Splondike]

see you all there....what time are we meeting??? will someone post up the times when arranged....cheers

Can you confirm what time, last year it was around 07:00 if I recall ?

Christian, I am meeting a 3 other cars at the old Halfords in Ashford at 06:00 on the day if you want to roll up with us from there. As you as you are not intimidated by three 5's and a 7 !

[Cotty]

So it it meet at 7am?

[thebloosman]

CHEERS MARK.....SEE YOU THERE AT 6 THEN.

[e36guy]

Why don't you boys come up the A1 and join some of the e36coupe crew on the way up? We're meeting at a place called the Caxton Gibbet in Cambridgehsire to take in a wonderful fun twisty on the way over. Santa pod is almost equidistant between the A&M1 so there's no point going from S.Mimms across to Luton to get on the A1.

Come on guy's it's a week away...

is it def a 7am meet then??

[zaust]

yes

[e36guy]

Dudes,

E36coupe have a 20+vehicle convoy starting at S.Mimms and heading for Caxton in Cambridgeshire for 0900 to head along a nice cross country route to the Pod. It's a wonderful road across. Perfect for BMWs!

From S.Mimms, head up the A1, turn off at Junction 9 - Baldock and follow new bypass on the A505 to Royston where you pick up the A1198 towards Huntingdon. Then it's an awesome straight fast quiet road all the way to the Caxton Gibbet which you will find about 1 mile past the Village of Caxton and is characterised by a standalone Chinese establishment called Yim-Wah house on one side and the Shell/Little Chef on the other. 15-20 mins from A1

Come and join us!!!!!!!

[12345kevin]

I think we're all gonna be long gone by 9 Guy, aiming to get to the pod for 9ish !

[zaust]

Want to be in the line up for 9 lol... Why don't the 36 boy's get out of bed earlier...

[Cotty]

If im not there, dont wait for me. I might go up the night before. Still undecided, depends if I can pick up a set of wheels on the Saturday.

[1an]

this is goign to be a bit of a small convoy. meh ohwell, atleast ill be first their

[Gwynleym10]

This is for the Sunday yes?

I'm thinking I might come along, always a first!

[e36guy]

Want to be in the line up for 9 lol... Why don't the 36 boy's get out of bed earlier...

Cos we did that last year as it was recommended we get there early to guarantee getting a space in the e36coupe section. But in reality, there was absolutely zero point in being there that early. There's so much room up there. That's why we're heading from Caxton at 9. Should still be there for about 0945 tho.

If you guys do decide to join us for the beautiful drivers road across from Caxton to the Pod the postcode for your Sat-Nav is CB23 3PE

Cotty, 12345Kevin - looking forward to seeing you boys again! Got news from WRR on next years Le Mans. Which is going to be huge!

[1an]

will be good to see you again Guy as im gonna wanna take my motor and not jump in with my dad next year, see you there.

[e36guy]

Better start saving dude. It's gonna be more expensive but a much much bigger and better operation.

but that'd for another thread. Back on topic!!

[1an]

what time are we all meeting at south mims and what time are we going to be leaving exactly for pod?

[e36guy]

FYI. The e36 crew are meeting at 0800 at the petrol station at S.Mimms then heading up the A1 to meet others at Caxton (CB23 3PE) for 0900. We'll welcome any e30zoners to the convoy. We've got 20 some cars maybe more. See you sunday!

[zaust]

7AM leaving time ian...
