BMC/BL Day

[TLC]

This year the club stand will be located next to the Rally point.:)

[E_T_V]

Why has it moved?

[TLC]

Because the club won best stand last year.;)

[Dave]

How do you know?

[TLC]

:D Because i was taking to sara about some thing and she told me.;)
so you herd it here first:p

[steve smith]

think i might try get to this years event not sure what one i bring along i am hoping to brign the ex press estate with me

[TLC]

If you come you might even get a prize:banana:

[Stephen G]

il try and get down to this in the Montego:)

[countrydude]

I may well come along also. The markets are quiet at the beginning of summer

[lincoln acclaim]

hello - i have been quiet recently but have still been logging on and reading what you are all up to.
just to say i will also be at the bl day with the acclaim - that is assuming all goes well at mot time next month (it should do - he has only done about 600 miles since the last one!)
is anyone camping there? - we intend to make a night of it and have a couple of drinkies!
look forward to seeing you all then!

[E_T_V]

Yes there are usually lot of people that camp there. Last year I overdid it a bit. Well ok a LOT and was still drunk when I woke up the next morning!

[MG MAL]

I'll be there again (as usual)
Have the feeling I will be with the Metro Owners Club Stand again too.

(Well I am the Chairman :hide: )

[edders1690]

Hoping to be there with the VP.
This will be my first show!

Ray

[malpas820@hotmail.co]

I will be there in A8,but i never win anything me,probably because the car isnt up to standards,or the "die hard judges" dont like the "modified car"!!:giveup:

Oh,and mal,your a traiter(i mean,metro's!!bring a proper car will you)!!!:hide: ;) :D

[Captain Slow]

I'll hopefully be there again, but I'm not sure if I'll be avec car - depends if I've passed and got hold of one by then.

[Stephen G]

Fingers crossed il be there with KGM! :)

Be nice to have her back on the Show scene! :)

[MG MAL]

Oh,and mal,your a traiter(i mean,metro's!!bring a proper car will you)!!!


ooooh! Modified Monty?????

Not really as it left the factory is it? not enough rust !:D :nonono: :fim:

[Jonathan]

I've just added the entry form for this to the events list:

www.maestro.org.uk/events

Get yourselves booked in!

[TLC]

I had the form last week but wasnt sure how to do the link:confused:

[tezza SG1]

Am i to late to apply for this ??

[Austin-Rover]

Nope, get it downloaded and in the post straight away.

[Dave]

or just pay on the day - i think it costs a little bit more, but it's well worth it.

Dave

[CPL593H]

are we still able to park with the club if we show up on the day?

[Austin-Rover]

Yes, you certainly are. Just ask to be directed to the M&MOC stand.

[C191JOE]

There's a website for the rally at

www.bmcblrally.co.uk

and an application form.

You can pay at the 'gate': just means waiting three or four minutes longer and it's a quid or two more expensive than pre-booking. But hey it's hardly expensive!

[CPL593H]

are many people camping for this?

[steve smith]

am hopign to be there with e169

[malpas820@hotmail.co]

Yes camping is allowed,im taking the caravan on the back of the countryman,and staying overnight on saturday. but you are not allowed on field till after 4pm that day.show is on sunday.

It is £3 to get in,£5 for camping,and £25 for a pitch to sell spares,if im 100% correct.:)

[CPL593H]

have you pre-booked camping?

[malpas820@hotmail.co]

No i havent personally,but theres plenty of room,the field is massive.

Unless your told to now,i think it may be a little late at this stage,to get pre-booked passes back in time.

You should have no problems on the day...;)

[E_T_V]

I'd ring and ask them as camping is usually very popular and the camping section of the field is very small (you aren't allowed/supposed to camp on the show part of the field apparently).

[Beaker]

Yes the forms say camping has to be pre-booked. Not too late to book still a couple of weeks away.

[MG Maestro Van]

If I get the MG van sorted I will try and get too this. It is looking well tatty at the moment but if I can get a weeks worth of testing or so prior to the journey to test the mechanical stuff that matters for now but needs a paint and pumped full of waxoil before the winter takes it's toll :banghead: dam rust damed with it damed with out it lol I do restore mini's for a living lol:D

[tezza SG1]

got E-mail today from organiser of BMC/BL day saying that my passes will be here by the weekend :cool:. only posted it on sunday...so will be travelling up to nottingham on the sat to fisit my mother and then travel back down to the show on sunday :D

see you all there:)

[tezza SG1]

got my pass today! my my that was QUICK !

[chrisl]

Me and Dad will be going to this, is it ok to put Maestro Turbo 345 on the club stand?

C

[Austin-Rover]

Yes, no problem at all. Just ask to be directed to the Club stand when you arrive.

[chrisl]

Thanks! :cool:

C

[tezza SG1]

Does anyone know how many of us are going to be there ??

[Austin-Rover]

Generally, we don't know numbers for the Club stand at BL day. This is because you all sort your own tickets, rather than say at smaller shows where I have to secure numbers beforehand and buy the tickets for you.

The good news is that in recent years we have topped over 50 Maestros and Montegos on the Club stand throughout the day.

[E_T_V]

Short answer is Lots!

[tezza SG1]

Short answer is Lots!

Lots of good piccys then !:)
Is this place hard to find? as I am traveling down from nottingham that morning and I've never ben here before..

[Austin-Rover]

It is an easy venue to find. Leave the A1 at the junction for the A1139. Follow signs for A1139 and City Centre, then look for and follow the brown Tourist Info. signs for Nene Park, or signs featuring the Country Park symbol.

The venue itself is Ferry Meadows, within Nene Park, and I think it is signposted as such on the Oundle Road, which is the entrance you need to aim for.

Generally, if you arrive at around the right time, follow the assorted BL tat that will be clogging the roads in the area.

[C191JOE]

....................'Assorted BL tat' tat? tat?? Please, that's a Maestro you're talking about !:mad:

[TLC]

Iam now going thanks to malpass.But not paying to get in as its a flying visit and a quick look around .So Dale when u see this Dont forget why iam B****y going !!!!!::banghead: :D ;)

Yes, I am planning to join you guys:) and there might also be a late white coupe too- if a friend of mine remembers :rolleyes:

[Beaker]

Just wanted to say a well done to Russ on the club stand display. It looked very good.

[Russ]

Thanks for that,but it was a team effot by the rest of you. We all need to buy as much ARG s**t (memorabilia) as we can so next year we can create a bigger dealership with more departments

[TLC]

Ill bring my Montego sign next year.;)

[Russ]

Did you buy that one off the chap from Reepham?

[PatrickIngham]

Good to hear it went well. one day i will get to it, when i find a better job which aint weekends!

[TLC]

Did you buy that one off the chap from Reepham?Got it at the BMC/BL dont know wher he was from but got it for half want he was asking for it:D:D;)

[TLC]

Good to hear it went well. one day i will get to it, when i find a better job which aint weekends!

Just be thankfull youve got a job :)

[tezza SG1]

I have added some photos of the day onto my albums if anyone wants to take a gander.
It was nice to meet all of you,nice to put faces to names.

[edders1690]

Great day, great weather, what more can you want at a show?. Good to put some names to faces!

Ray

[Captain Slow]

The one drawback to BL Day is I always end up getting sunburned. Normally ghosts have more colour than I do, but yesterday has left me looking like Rudolf the Red Nosed Tomato on his first day of painting the fire engine.

It was lovely to put names to faces - Mal, Andy (Tesco bangers) if you're reading, Jon, Ray, and Alexander (Sorry if I've missed out any other members; I talked to so many people I've lost track of who i know from which board!), and I think that of the 3 years i've done BL Day (07, 08, and 09) this one was the best.

Bugger. I tried coding those to bring the full size one up if you clicked on the thumbnail. It's worked on AR but somehow copying and pasting the same code here hasn't worked... Short of pasting full sized pics and giving 56k users heart attacks I can't see a way round it - so if you do click the pics, please remove the 'th_' from the middle of the url to bring a full sized version up...

Thanks, I enjoyed our talk too.

I think the picket line was a good theme: with the Allegro born into an era of industrial unrest.

[Jonathan]

I think we had 18 cars and vans in total which was well down on a couple of years ago (when crazy numbers would turn up - did Saturday's rain put some of you off?), but it worked nicely in the space we had and I thought possibly this club's best display yet, visually. Thanks to all involved in that, and for bringing some interesting cars along.

Keep the pictures coming - I'll put a review on the main site if/when I get time. For those who missed out, a fairly standard set from me here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jpsellars/sets/72157621936137312/) - and sorry Russ for '032 & '033, you left me no choice!

Even 'CHO enjoyed good company at the hotel car park the previous night:

i'm sure there are some jokes in there about russ getting a leg over..... :)

[malpas820@hotmail.co]

Forgot to add ,i was disappointed with the monty turn out! :giveup: :(

Did i count 5-7 montys at most?? only mine being the only estate there (apart from the one in the car park area) and jeff's/son gsi and efi on the actual stand!!

David (tlc) didnt bring his,jeff couldnt bring the turbo(and should),and i couldnt bring my turbo as i didnt have any more drivers available (plus its broke,again):banghead: :D :D

Need more there next year,from the monty owners,but the maestro,and metro turnout was great,i thought!!:cool:

[Russ]

I look scarier than the dummy :o Anyway the police have been and my new address is
Sexual Devients Wing (amputees Division)

Whitemoor ;)

[threelitre]

Great show as always. And yes, the MMOC stand looks much nicer if not running the traditional 'traffic jam'-theme. I am usually not taken by Montego Saloons, but a certain GSi.... I think I am not the only one who had thoughts about quietly letting this one slip into a pocket ;)

As I needed to drive an estate this year, neither my Maestro nor my usual BL tat was showing this year - just a slightly battered 416 Tourer (on the 200&400 OC stand). If I would have had the choice, I would have taken my father's Rover 2.0 GTD (aka Montego to you lot) and put it on the stand for you to admire the Rover badges on it ;) But this is currently enjoying the sun in southern France. So the 416 had to do, but delivering 44-45mpg and having A/C (to dry us on saturday and cool us on Sunday) wasn't too bad...

Regards,

Alexander

Thats very kind of you to say that mate, thanks

Forgot to add ,i was disappointed with the monty turn out! :giveup: :(

Did i count 5-7 montys at most?? only mine being the only estate there (apart from the one in the car park area) and jeff's/son gsi and efi on the actual stand!!

David (tlc) didnt bring his,jeff couldnt bring the turbo(and should),and i couldnt bring my turbo as i didnt have any more drivers available (plus its broke,again):banghead: :D :D

Need more there next year,from the monty owners,but the maestro,and metro turnout was great,i thought!!:cool:
Couldn't bring the Turbo as my wife didn't want to drive
Monty's at the show
My GSi
My sons MG Montego EFi

The white MG Montego EFi on the stand that sold on the day to the previous owner.

A Montego Estate in the car park.
Can't recall seeing any more than these.

I am usually not taken by Montego Saloons, but a certain GSi.... I think I am not the only one who had thoughts about quietly letting this one slip into a pocket ;)

Thanks for the kind comments three litre

Not a problem, I mean it. I still stand by what I said when I saw the first pics; if you ever decide you want to sell it - not that you will - please tell me.

I did want to come over and talk to you about it on the day; express my jealousy in person so to speak. Sadly, I've not met you before and you weren't by the car - and you left as I was chatting to Jon Sellars (Jeans, grey shirt and a dark jacket, sunglasses if you saw me) so I didn't get an opportunity. Maybe next year.

Should have come over, i'm a very easy person to talk to

Would've loved to, but I didn't know what you looked like til it was too late...

That's really the problem with online enthusiast forums - you don't know what half the people you know look like. Perhaps a pic thread would be a good idea - or for us all to wear name badges at these events?

I would have loved to have went to this show it looked a good show. Work comitments again got in the way I am quite far behind at the minet with every thing.:banghead:
