[SteveSheldon]

OK the accomodation deal, exclusive to our event, is as follows:

The address & contact details are as below:

Holiday Inn Express
The Squareabout
Haslett Avenue East,
CRAWLEY, RH10 1UA
ENGLAND, UK
Email: reception@hiexpresscrawley.co.uk
Phone: +44 (0)1293 525 523

We (as an event) have requested 10 rooms to be reserved for us at a discounted rate for Friday & Saturday night. The rooms would normally cost in the range of £59 - £65 per night but have been reduced to a fixed price of £54 a night for us. This does include breakfast if wanted, free wi-fi, and parking.

It will take them a day or so to set this up for us, but if you want to take advantage of this offer please email them, or call them quoting that you are with the 'JaguarForums.com event'. You will need to provide credit or debit card details to guarantee your booking.

The rooms will be reserved exclusively for attendees to book until the end of April..

[SteveSheldon]

OK guys, I have been working on a surprise attendee that I think everyone will find of interest (the car I mean :-)) more news to come when I know more :-)

[SteveSheldon]

I have just heard from the general manager at the Holiday Inn Express and the reserved rooms are available Fri, Sat, and Sunday nights, and can be booked from this point forwards - all three nights are available at the £54 per night rate!

[SteveSheldon]

This event will be taking place on 29th May 2016 - with the main venue being Madiera Drive on the Brighton seafront as usual.

It is a Jaguar EXCLUSIVE event, and I am working on gaining much more industry support than previously, and ensuring that everyone has a fantastic day to remember.

The initial meeting point will be Pease Pottage Services, with an indoor area aset aside for us and 20% discount on anything from Costa (remember to say you are with the JaguarForums.com event to get your discount) to help get your day started. The Welcome Packs will be handed out at this point, and the main features of the day covered.

Then there will be a convoy down to the Brighton seafront creating a huge Jaguar statement with up to 100 cars, all setting up camp in one huge parking block in Madiera Drive.

There will be a fixed price breakfast laid on for attendees on arrival in Brighton, at a cost of £4.99 for the recommended (two of everything :-)) breakfast, plus drinks at individual prices or £2.60 for unlimited drinks. We are booked in the Harvester in Madiera Drive - remember to say you are with the JaguarForumns.com event when ordering.

The only other cost for the day is the parking which is likely to be £3.20 for one hour, £5.20 for 2 hours, £10.40 for 4 hours or £15.60 for 11 hours (Brighton Council are reviewing the rates in April though ).

CaptainHam has suggested setting up & using the pay by phone parking app on your phone prior to the day (saves fishing around in pockets for change, or in this case, notes)

The main meet will follow on from then with as much going on as I can pull together for us including a free prize draw for a number of must-have goodies, industry reps (see Industry Attendees list below to see who will have reps onsite) for you to quiz with problems, discounts etc etc. Not forgetting that this is your chance to meet up with all the people you know online, maybe advise them on any issues you have solved or figured and for others to help you out with any issues and to check out up to 100 Jaguars including the new Jaguar F-Pace AWD!!

Plus, if you want to make a weekend of it, we have teamed up with HolidayInn Express in Crawley and have a fixed discounted rate of £54 a night for attendees, plus guaranteed availability of rooms for us :-) please see their details below, or follow this link HolidayInn Express Crawley.

If you would like to sign up for this event please just pop a post on the thread inc how many will likely be coming, and car details, and I will add you in, noting you can join just the main event, or the event and convoy. If you prefer, you are also very welcome to sign up by dropping a line to JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk :-)

[SteveSheldon]

I think we have almost everything in place now :-) We have discounted accomodation with guaranteed availability, not one but two official venues, Harwoods Jaguar, The Automatic Gearbox Centre & Ultimo lubricants attending to answer all and any questions, Harwoods will be bringing an F-Pace AWD for us to see, we have some great prize draw prizes for a free prize draw, discounts on everything from coffee and tea through to everything you need to look after your Jaguar. Our breakfast by the sea is fixed price, we even know the parking costs!

If you have not signed up for this great day out for you, your Jag, and your family yet - there is no better time to make that choice and sign up to come along!

I am currently working on one surprise attendee (a car, not a person) and if I can encourage them to come and join us this year I can guarantee you will find them a massive talking point on the day :-)

So go on treat yourself - the event is free to sign up for, free to attend (apart for parking & breakfast), has a free prize draw and is a great social event in the Jaguar calendar! 

[SteveSheldon]

A quick but massive thankyou to everyone involved in our event to-date!!

We have received over 32,200 forum thread hits across our four forum threads (over 2200 just over last weekend!), we have 48 cars, and 75 people signed up to attend, our Twitter account has 70 followers, and our Facebook page 21 friends.

We have 13 very generous and great sponsors supporting us, three of them even prepared to come onsite to answer all and any questions.

Thankyou very much to everyone for everything so far, making our event the fantastic event it is going to be!!

If you haven't signed up yet - please do... equally if you know anyone else with a Jag who wants a free day out with discounts, freebies, industry specialists to quiz etc please get them to sign up too!

Remember we can be followed here on the forum thread, or on Twitter ( @JFBrightonMeets #MayJagMeet ) or on Facebook (www.facebook.com/JaguarForumsUK ), or even contacted via JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk

[SteveSheldon]

Ok I have not split the models into generations but have a rough guide as to how our list of attending Jaguars breaks down currently:

We have cars covering production from 1976 through to 2016

Daimler V12 x 1
F-Type x 3
S-Type x 12
XE = 1
XF x 1
XFR = 1
XFR x 1
XJ = 4
XJC = 1
XJR = 4
XJS = 3
XJ8 = 4
XK = 2
XK8 = 3
XKR = 4
X-Type = 3

Apologies for any errors - interestingly this year the S-Type seems to be the most prominent :-)

[SteveSheldon]

This event will be taking place on 29th May 2016 - with the main venue being Madiera Drive on the Brighton seafront as usual.

It is a Jaguar EXCLUSIVE event, and I am working on gaining much more industry support than previously, and ensuring that everyone has a fantastic day to remember.

The initial meeting point will be Pease Pottage Services, with an indoor area aset aside for us and 20% discount on anything from Costa (remember to say you are with the JaguarForums.com event to get your discount) to help get your day started. The Welcome Packs will be handed out at this point, and the main features of the day covered.

Then there will be a convoy down to the Brighton seafront creating a huge Jaguar statement with up to 100 cars, all setting up camp in one huge parking block in Madiera Drive.

There will be a fixed price breakfast laid on for attendees on arrival in Brighton, at a cost of £4.99 for the recommended (two of everything :-)) breakfast, plus drinks at individual prices or £2.60 for unlimited drinks. We are booked in the Harvester in Madiera Drive - remember to say you are with the JaguarForumns.com event when ordering.

The only other cost for the day is the parking which is likely to be £3.20 for one hour, £5.20 for 2 hours, £10.40 for 4 hours or £15.60 for 11 hours (Brighton Council are reviewing the rates in April though ).

CaptainHam has suggested setting up & using the pay by phone parking app on your phone prior to the day (saves fishing around in pockets for change, or in this case, notes)

The main meet will follow on from then with as much going on as I can pull together for us including a free prize draw for a number of must-have goodies, industry reps (see Industry Attendees list below to see who will have reps onsite) for you to quiz with problems, discounts etc etc. Not forgetting that this is your chance to meet up with all the people you know online, maybe advise them on any issues you have solved or figured and for others to help you out with any issues and to check out up to 100 Jaguars including the new Jaguar F-Pace AWD!!

Plus, if you want to make a weekend of it, we have teamed up with HolidayInn Express in Crawley and have a fixed discounted rate of £54 a night for attendees, plus guaranteed availability of rooms for us :-) please see their details below, or follow this link HolidayInn Express Crawley. Just remember to quote that you are with the 'JaguarForums.com' event to get guaranteed avalability and the fixed discounted rate of £54 a night.

If you would like to sign up for this event please just pop a post on the thread inc how many will likely be coming, and car details, and I will add you in, noting you can join just the main event, or the event and convoy. If you prefer, you are also very welcome to sign up by dropping a line to JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk :-)

OK, as of just now we are officially covering 50 years of Jaguar production at our event!! Everything from a 1966 E-Type to a 1974 XJ Coupe right through to a Harwoods Jaguar showroom AWD F-Pace!!

On top of this there is still a few possible event additions and surprises I am working on and hoping will come together for the day!!

Anyone undecided on the day - please, please sign up for what is genuinely set to be a fantastic day for everyone.

Please keep an eye on our forum thread, or our Twitter feed @JFBrightonMeets #MayJagMeet or our Facebook page www.facebook.com/JaguarForumsUK for the latest news as it develops!

[SteveSheldon]

This event will be taking place on 29th May 2016 - with the main venue being Madiera Drive on the Brighton seafront as usual.

It is a Jaguar EXCLUSIVE event, and I am working on gaining much more industry support than previously, and ensuring that everyone has a fantastic day to remember.

The initial meeting point will be Pease Pottage Services, with an indoor area aset aside for us and 20% discount on anything from Costa (remember to say you are with the JaguarForums.com event to get your discount) to help get your day started. The Welcome Packs will be handed out at this point, and the main features of the day covered.

Then there will be a convoy down to the Brighton seafront creating a huge Jaguar statement with up to 100 cars, all setting up camp in one huge parking block in Madiera Drive.

There will be a fixed price breakfast laid on for attendees on arrival in Brighton, at a cost of £4.99 for the recommended (two of everything :-)) breakfast, plus drinks at individual prices or £2.60 for unlimited drinks. We are booked in the Harvester in Madiera Drive - remember to say you are with the JaguarForumns.com event when ordering.

The only other cost for the day is the parking which is likely to be £3.20 for one hour, £5.20 for 2 hours, £10.40 for 4 hours or £15.60 for 11 hours (Brighton Council are reviewing the rates in April though ).

CaptainHam has suggested setting up & using the pay by phone parking app on your phone prior to the day (saves fishing around in pockets for change, or in this case, notes)

The main meet will follow on from then with as much going on as I can pull together for us including a free prize draw for a number of must-have goodies, industry reps (see Industry Attendees list below to see who will have reps onsite) for you to quiz with problems, discounts etc etc. Not forgetting that this is your chance to meet up with all the people you know online, maybe advise them on any issues you have solved or figured and for others to help you out with any issues and to check out up to 100 Jaguars including the new Jaguar F-Pace AWD!!

Plus, if you want to make a weekend of it, we have teamed up with HolidayInn Express in Crawley and have a fixed discounted rate of £54 a night for attendees, plus guaranteed availability of rooms for us :-) please see their details below, or follow this link HolidayInn Express Crawley. Just remember to quote that you are with the 'JaguarForums.com' event to get guaranteed avalability and the fixed discounted rate of £54 a night.

If you would like to sign up for this event please just pop a post on the thread inc how many will likely be coming, and car details, and I will add you in, noting you can join just the main event, or the event and convoy. If you prefer, you are also very welcome to sign up by dropping a line to JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk :-)
