Carrera RS 2.7 40th Anniversary World Event - 13th-16th Sept

[hot66]

Why don't we do something in the UK along the lines of those old PCGB events we are being nostalgic about? Small (and informal) can be beautiful. I've owned my 2.7RS for 10 years and can't remember there being a UK gathering during that period.

But what about a gathering of UK 2.7RS for the anniversary? Not even Hedingham seems to get them together in more than twos or threes these days?!

All good ideas and I'd be interested a DDK gathering to celebrate the 40th anniversary

I do know that the Classics at the Castle team are keen to attract a large number of RS at Hedingham this year (Sun 2 Sept). There will also be a dinner with Vic Elford on the Sat night, which sounds good.

Just checked the website and you're right. That clashes exactly with the German RS event. Hedingham it is then!

I've just remembered that when I last saw Fred last year, he mentioned he wanted to do something special for the 40th anniversary. Whether he's going to bother given the German club thing I don't know.

I could host an informal meet in the summer if there's an interest. Cars, BBQ + camping if anyone wants to stay over.

Down Sarf, based between Reading and Basingstoke.

i would happily attend a 2.7 RS specific UK meet to celebrate 40 years of the car. won't be travelling to Germany, too time consuming for me. will try for castle Headingham, but a 2.7 RS only meet might be more special.

.....a quick show of hands for a get together on the 14th/15th of July?

If there is enough interest I'll arrange it.

[pmjt]

Sounds like a plan - not too far for me either

[PhilipB]

Count me in. Doesn't have to be anything grand. Would be great to get a few cars and owners together.

[Mitch]

Good for me too....that's the first w/e after CLM so plenty to chat about and no doubt many improbable stories to be re-told!

[101sinbad]

That's four of us...........put it in the diary. I'll do a proper "events" post in a couple of weeks.


Anyone else?
