I organised a zroadster area at the show last year and am keen to do so again. Show details are here: http://www.bmwshow.co.uk/ There are some pics of last year's event here: http://www.zroadster.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20767 and the previous year's event (when we didn't have a stand) here: http://www.zroadster.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18126

Those who have been before will vouch as to how good the show is due to the number and varied types of enthusiast owned BMWs on display. Make a date in your diary for this one - I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

We'll need 10 confirmed cars to get our stand. I'll coordinate this but you need to pay me your entry money in advance and as soon as possible. The entry fee is £13 per person (this will ensure we cover the booking fee too - anything left over will go towards the running of zroadster.net). Register your interest on this thread and I'll pm each of you with payment details.

*UPDATE - 16/09/10*

For those that want to meet up prior to the show and arrive at Santa Pod in convoy we will form up at Tesco's in Wellingborough at 7:30am

When and how do you want the money ?
paypal on standby !

Payment sent Ian

Can u add me + 1 plzzzz, are people camping over...last time i went i did n it was a r8 laff!!! kinda unsure whether the generator will fit in my boot thow for the hairdryer n straightners :(

a work colleague of mine goes regular and says there is a good ' holliday inn' type place nearby with pub etc. we were thinking of doing something along those lines. not sure if night before or night after though. maybe both think w4tkins + partner were thinking same too. more the merrier.

This sounds good put us down as a maybe, due to change my job in middle of june so wont know till then as it depends what weekends i am on call . If we do go it will be me n other half.

They do have camping facilities nearby, last time i went I camped in the billing aquadrome which is about 5mins away, turned out to be good fun!

just been looking on santa pod website , no not sad being up at this time but actually working kind of. anyhow it says camping is free on the saturday night sept 18th if your there all weekend. saturday being a race what you bring day and sunday being the BMW show day.
for me i think i'll be staying here on the saturday night as recommended by a workmate £62 for 2 adults and a beefeater on site and only short walk into wellinborough town centre. sounds ideal. then no need for a generator for my straighteners
anymore takers?

All being well and I can attend, the hotel idea Saturday night sound like a plan! Good thinking canmam

I wont be staying over night, I only live down the road. But I would probably make 2 days of it and Mrs I would probably like to join for an evening dinner.

CANMAN!!!! Staying in a hotel takes all the fun out of it!!! 4get the hotel am camping with the Barbie Queen n r Tony!!! Any1 joining us hahaha

Yes but it's a lot more comfortable!
I haven't persuaded Dot yet but am working on a software upgrade

Mrs Canman not that keen on camping and besides were posh in Rotherham . serious though am told the facilities are poor for camping and we wont be doing saturday just sunday. i do think camping would be a laugh especially watching you girls put up your Pink tent .
its the Hotel for us and the pubs in Wellingborough.
come on you know you want to

thats us and W4tkins in the hotel. ahhh those warm comfy beds, nice meal out, chilled beers and wine.
happy camping

Canman wrote:thats us and W4tkins in the hotel. ahhh those warm comfy beds, nice meal out, chilled beers and wine

.. and Lenny Henry for entertainment
Don't forget, breakfast is on top of the £62 and IIRC is £8/head
However, the Premiers are usually good VFM and as you say havea pub next door

And remember, there's no such thing as bad beer, just some that's better than others

Terry , there is also an Adsa across the road that has a cafe and does breakfast butties etc. much cheaper than the £8 premier breakfast.
looking forward to the event and meeting fellow zedders yet again.

Asda.... ????
Across the road ???
Thought you were posh ??
Do they do room service ?

There is no Asda opposite but there is a Pizza Hut and a burger van most weekends

Geoff H wrote:There is no Asda opposite but there is a Pizza Hut and a burger van most weekends

I think Canman means opposite the Premier Inn ?

There is no Asda at all in Wellingborough, The shopping complex on the opposite side of the road only has a Pizza Hut along with B&Q, a couple of carpet shops, Dreams, a pet shop & Dunelms no other food apart from the burger van. There is a Tesco's with a cafe in the next complex half a mile further on, there's a KFC there too along with a bowling Alley (where I go most mornings) The Town centre is a mile or so down the road from the Premier Inn

sorry guys , having never been im only going on what a colleague is telling me. so guess its Tesco cafe not Asda. still it'll be cheaper than the £8 premier one. alternatively find the nearest Macdonalds as they are everywhere.

This idea I am liking Mr C Just hope Lenny Henry isn't sat on my bed on arrival

get yourself booked in Daz as they take a card number but no money till you stay there and if you cant make it , and you cancel by 1pm on the day, there is no charge. you cant lose. also you can request a room that overlooks the carpark. more the merrier

think am gna go 4 the hotel option as the nite out on saturday nite has done it 4 me!!! Roll on September!!! :)

premier inn, london road, wellingborough 08701977262
