Strange, I saw one on the trailer for the programme - it even had a Union Jack on the front.
Probably got lost on that stupid dog-bone shaped roundabout! :-D

I've got video of the convoy, it's mainly Corsa, white vans and cyclists. I think I spotted an Elan in it somewhere. Once editted for the best bits I'll post a link - should only last around 4secs!
Could the 'Hokey-Cokey' actually be what it's all about?

Still, we ended up with 50 or so Elans in OUR tent. Other Lotus owners were still whingeing on Sunday p.m. :)

The convoy was more of a cock up than normal. I had a Ginsters pie van in front of me :!: Next year we need to find somewhere that's not a retail park with lots of mini roundabouts and early morning, grey haired Morrisons shoppers.

That business park a bit further on might be a better idea if the venue is still Malvern ?

The convoy run in from the campsite went a bit better but there's only on f in Geof Smith still got lost. Ha ha - get those eyes tested Smiffy :shock:

There's some nice country roads from Upton to the Showground - if there's a big enough car park there that might be a good place to start the convoy.

Read the petrol prices nearby and weep

Still a good show from the M100's though

Upton-on-Severn would indeed be a good run in Jim. we might even be able to keep the Ginsters pie van out of the convoy !

Mere coincidence or carefully executed plan you curly haired porker. :lol:

I was going the twisty scenic route you daft bugger. Anyway, (even with your glasses on) why did you follow me?
