A message I received from Club Lotus yesterday. Your car could be the star.
Good afternoon,
I have had to send this to all our members so not as to miss anyone out incase I don't have all car info listed on file. So I apologise if this doesn't apply to you.
Best Regards

Hi Jane,
Hope you’re keeping well.
I just wanted to follow up on my previous email as we’re now looking for convertible cars to come along to our event; the event will actually be a brand new set up for the Top Gear studio records.
Due to COVID we are not able to conduct are usual studio set up and instead are going to be holding a ‘drive-in’ style studio. We’re looking for some amazing convertibles to fill our front rows and enjoy the show from the comfort of their own car and I’m hoping some of your members would like to come along.
The records are going to be taking place on the evenings of the 8th, 9th and 10th of September at Dunsfold Aerodrome and here is a bit more info below –
The show will be a drive-in recording, so you must attend in a car - there are NO audience seating or standing areas. Cars will be parked at safe distances to follow government advice and precautions regarding COVID-19.
We wouldn’t require your members to do anything but simply park up, enjoy the show and car their car on television! The only requirement we have is the vehicles have FM radios as this is required to able to tune in and hear the action. As it stands I’m going to be working on a first come, first serve basis and restricting numbers to 5 tickets per record (this is a ticket per car so can be 1-4 people per car as long as this is made up of same households or social bubbles).
If you’re members are interested please could you ask them to email me on – chris.holroyd-jones@bbc.co.uk and include their name, their car, their contact details and what date they’d like to attend.
This recording will take place on Dunsfold Aerodrome’s track although this will not be live and completely reserved for our use only; please note that we will not be able to cover your member’s insurance for this event so please make sure they’re happy with being parked up on the track before attending.
I look forward to hearing from your members!
Best,
Chris
