Re: What if Goodwood Members Meeting is cancelled due to Cor

Of course there are more important things than a couple of tickets and hotel reservations; I get that!

I don't like what your implying here...

My girlfriend has Cystic Fibrosis and has been diagnosed in January with colon cancer, so I worry a lot and think the Corona Virus is an enormous threat.

Re: What if Goodwood Members Meeting is cancelled due to Cor

I have a travel insurance and a cancellation insurance: both don't cover it!

A virus outbreak is not insurable (here in the Netherlands).

I've payed for the ferry and hotel beforehand and cannot cancel those anymore: both were booked 'not refundable'.

What if Goodwood Members Meeting is cancelled due to Corona?

In 2 weeks the Goodwood Members Meeting is scheduled to take place. I've bought tickets long ago and booked the ferry and a hotel. What if the Members Meeting is cancelled due to Corona? - Will the tickets be refunded? - Will it be cancelled or postponed? - Isn't it curious that Goodwood doesn't kee...

Re: Goodwood 73rd Members Meeting (21/22-03-'15): who's goin

Wow... You've revived an old topic here!

That was 5 years ago that I went with my camper van. It was pretty cold (but not as cold as 2 years ago when we even had snow), so ever since I stay at a hotel near Goodwood.

I will be there this year (as every year) and will be staying at Arundel.

Re: Pondering a Speedster Build.......

If you have any questions, just ask! :wink: Here in the Netherlands you cannot get a replica approved if it isn't on a (shortened) VW pan, so I couldn't tell you the difference between a Beetle pan and a Sppedster Clinic chassis. If you would like to have any other build information I probably can p...

Re: 1987 3.2 Carrera Backdate project - Sladeys hotrod

Not very original Slate Grey (in every aspect)... Almost every backdate that's done here in the Netherlands is resprayed in Slate Grey... Don't get me wrong, I think it's a beautiful colour, but there are so bloody many Slate Grey backdated cars out there, it's just ridiculous... Which colours I lik...

Re: a week to Wales: What to see & do & where to drive? Tips

Thanks for the tips so far! Greatly appreciated...

Is there -except Scotland- another great countryside in the UK where it's really fun to drive?
Is Wales not as much fun to drive as I imagine?

a week to Wales: What to see & do & where to drive? Tips pls

We are planning on going to Wales next year for a week. We are a group of 4 Porsche enthousiasts that go every year on a week long trip abroad. We already did the NC500 last year, and we went to the Mille Miglia. It's a nice collection of cars also: I have a Cyclam red 944 S2, one friend has an Oak ...
