Sorry to be a pain Jason, but myself and Jo are going to have to pull out and let someone on the reserve list go instead. I'm gutted really as I was looking forward to this, but apparently we have other plans for that day now...! [:mad:]


Again, sorry to let you down so late on.
 
Hi All,

Here is the route I plan to take:-

With a stop at Oxford services for a cup of tea. I plan to be at the services at 9:30am and leave at 10:00 for the 30 minutes drive to Prodrive. Please join me if you like and we can travel up in convoy.

I will check on parking arrangements on Monday and will post as soon as I have the information.

Regards

Jason

Hi Jason,

Thanks for posting the route.

Unfortunately, since I'm coming in from North Beds I won't be able to join you at Oxford Services but look forward to meeting up with you all at the venue.

Jason

If you still have any spaces left, I am on the Reserve List (GTS Speed Yellow x 1) for the afternoon session with the 997 Register but would welcome the chance to come with you guys.

Perhaps you could let me know as we did originally speak about a week ago but I ended up on the 997 list.

Fingers crossed,

Adam Tindell
 
Hi Adam,
Yes, we have a place available for you. I have spoken to Ian who will be in touch with you over the next couple of days.
See you on Sunday.
Regards
Jason
 
Hi All,
When you arrive at Prodrive please will all the Porsches park on the side of the building with the three flag poles and the Prodrive sign so we can get an excellent photo opportunity.
Thanks
Jason
 
Has anything been said about photography? ie: is there any problem with us taking photos indoors?

Chris.
 
Just home from a great morning at Prodrive (proper cold though!) so a big thank you to Jason for sorting out all the details.

Look forward to seeing some pics.

Adam
 

Hi Jason,

Sincere apologies for the "no show" today. Really disappointed to have missed what sounds like a good morning out.

Hope that you received my email message yesterday with the explanation.

Jeff
 
Great visit to Prodrive today. It was really interesting, and surprising, to learn just how many ventures they are involved with. Our tour guide, Jackie, was excellent a keen petrol-head and very knowledgeable.

Thanks to Jason for organising the visit.

Snow? Pah - who cares?! A truly superb day - thanks to all who arranged and ran it.


Aston Marting Le Mans works cars undergoing build


Aston Martin LMP1 class Le Mans car - sold!


My personal favourite - #88 is my race number!

I've posted 40-odd photos on Flickr - if anyone wants copies, just message me.

If you'd like to see some of the Prodrive Astons in action, they're at the FIA 6 Hours of Silverstone on 12-14 April. I'm hoping to be there posting reports for a motoring website.

Chris #88.
 
Great day.
Thanks for organising well done Jason.
Be good if we could have some warmer weather next time [8D]

Many thanks Cliff & Tracy
