Now done. Also now added is a taster for the informal centenary informal touring event , based on Abingdon and driving to places of interest in Oxfordshire, Berkshire and surrounding areas and funnelling in to Silverstone on Saturday morning 10th June, returning there on Sunday 11th.
Up to 4 nights' accommodation has been negotiated on a Dinner, B&B basis at the Hilton Garden Hotel Abingdon at attractive rates. The event plans allow for flexibility, so participants can decide whether to take part on some or all of the available days.
To fit in with this, shorter stays are possible at the Hilton Hotel at the same daily rates, if desired.
Organisers: MGCC Vintage Register and the Triple-M Register.
For details and to record your interest, please contact Rob Constant on rob@littleabingdon or call 07855 821 006
As normal, event participants will be asked to make their hotel booking directly with the Hilton Hotel. A booking code will be supplied to those wishing to take part.
