Just a quick update so you know where we are with this meet. We definitely have Harwoods Jaguar Brighton on board for the Welcome Packs for this meet which is really great. I have started enquiries with our other sponsors and industry attendees/speakers who kindly assisted us with the December meet to see if they would be happy to also support this spring/summer event. And.. I am officially taking bookings for the event - so if you think you would enjoy a Jaguar type of Top Gear day, by the seaside with the Victorian promenades as the backdrop, enjoying a hearty breakfast with great conversation with other like minded Jaguar owners, industry attendees/speakers to ask sales and servicing questions of, the opportunity to be in a photo shoot of the event and have a great day please just put your name forward on here or email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk

If you are still undecided whether to come, or have already signed up by posting on here or emailing me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk here are the latest stats on our favourite bi-annual event.. We have Welcome Packs for the first time.. with many thanks to our new event sponsors! We have Harwoods Jaguar Brighton in attendance with a showroom F-Type Coupe. We have Tony from Harwoods Jaguar Brighton and Kevin from The Automatic Gearbox Centre to answer any sales, or transmission enquiries you have. We have 45 cars signed up so far for the Pease Pottage to Brighton Convoy to make a huge entrance in Brighton at the start of the main meet. We have 50 cars signed up for the main meet itself so far! We have booked the Madeira Cafe for £5 fixed price breakfast & tea/coffee. The parking is just £1 an hour on Madeira Drive for this meet. You get to see Jaguars right from a 1968 Mk2 through to the very latest 2014 models You also get to see TVR Tuscans, a Noble, BMW, possibly a Lamborghini Gallardo, and more... And finally and most importantly you get to meet the people you meet on the forums in real life, to see their cars, talk and get to know everyone better! It is a great social event easing the Christmas rush for us and giving us a break as only a 'Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy and Meet' can! If you look further up the thread you will find the itinerary and loads of info on the event.. so go on, even if you are unsure I am sure your car would love the event.. why not pop a post on this thread or just email me and put your name forward? Additionally, as promised, I am working on the next Bi-Annual Convoy and Meet, and am currently starting to take bookings here: UK South East Meet Spring/Summer 2015 in Brighton so if you can't make this one don't worry you can now put your name forward for the next one and still guarantee yourself a good Jaguar day out:-) Equally if you attend our bi-annual meets regularly you may want to get signed up now for the next one :-)

OK, yes I know this is a while off but the next Bi-Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet will be happening in May 2015! The exact date has yet to be fixed and depends on a number of factors, but all the possible dates will be put up for a vote, as usual, to find the date that most people can make. The event will have the format of a primary meet at Pease Pottage Services, with a convoy down to Madiera Drive, parking up in one huge block there for the main meet, prior to a fixed price big breakfast and the social events, photo shoots etc. I am working hard on retaining our sponsors from the Winter meet, and will try to ensure we have industry attendees to answer any Jaguar sales or servicing questions you may have. The last Spring/Summer meet attracted a lot of interest from tourists interested in the cars, and was a fantastic day all round, so it is well worth putting your name forward for. The more attendees we have the more interest I will be able to raise in sponsorship and industry attendance. If you would like to check up on some of our recent Bi-Annual Convoy and Meet events please have a look here: UK South East Meet Spring/Summer 2014 in Brighton and here: UK South East Meet December 2014 in Brighton Being a Spring/Summer meet this event will be exclusively Jaguar - if you have a car of another marque - don't worry - the next Winter meet will be open to all marques again. If you would like to attend this convoy and meet please put your name forward and I will be happy to add you in. The event is free as such, as always, and will continue to be so, but there will be parking costs, and the cost of the fixed price breakfast on the day. You can put a post up on this thread if you wish to attend, or you can email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk - either way I will happily add you in.. as usual I need to know if you wish to attend just the main meet, or the met and the convoy, your car and year, and how many people will likely be travelling.. As always I will keep you guys updated as I go... Come on, this is a chance to get your car out in the spring/summer give it a good clean and polish, meet up with all the people you see online, put names to faces and cars, have a chat with industry attendees about any problems or issues you have, enjoy a big breakfast, and a great day out - and all on a budget that has exact figures for those of you cautious about costs the same as me.

Just 17 days left to sign up to this event! If you would like to come along please pop a post up on here or email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk

Many thanks to those of you that have come forward with seats for anyone who is unfortunate enough to not have their car available on the day due to breakdown or any other cause. Should you become aware that you may be without your car for any reason on the day please don't assume you can't come to the meet - drop a pm to the person nearest you with a seat available, on the forum listed against them, and we can hopefully get you to and from the event..whether you have your car with you or not we would love for you to come along - it is just what the Jaguar community does :-)

OK - yes I'm trying to get everything nailed down today, and ease off a little for a few days, and resurrect my family life before the event :-) I have been in contact with Kevin at 'The Automatic Gearbox Centre' and he will definitely be with us for the breakfast and onwards - please make good use of him regarding any transmission questions you may have I have given up with trying the 'best' approach of contact being the Brighton Argus's event reporters, and have tried progressing our need for coverage with the newspaper editor directly - I will update you if I hear back.. Finally I have been in contact with Harwoods Jaguar and their material should be with me later this week for inclusion in the Welcome Packs. All that leaves is the possible mystery sponsor who may give the Welcome Packs a bit of a twist... it remains to be seen if they come through - again, if they do I will of course let you know. Anyone wanting to sign up for this event, but have not yet - please, please put your name forward and I will add you in. It looks to be a great day with Welcome Packs, a convoy/cruise, entering Madiera Drive making a huge visual statement, Fixed price breakfast with tea/coffee, Harwoods Jaguar Brighton and The Automatic Gearbox Centre in attendance for your questions, and cars ranging from the era of the TV series Morse, right through to the latest showroom Jaguar, and not just Jaguars but also Ford & TVR in attendance!

This years winter meet is happening on Sunday 7th December - with a social run down from Pease Pottage Services to Madiera Drive, Brighton, everyone parking up in one huge block of cars (parking £1 per hour, £4 for the morning, or £7 for the day), followed by a fixed price big breakfast (£5.00 per person inc tea/coffee) to set us up for the morning. It's a great chance for you to have a break from the Christmas rush and shopping and to have some time with great company, fantastic cars, a mug of tea and something to eat.. Please note that with this being the Winter meet it is open to other marques - with a warm Jaguar welcome for everyone.

Another quick update for you, just so you know the state of play as the day approaches at what seems to be a faster and faster speed. I won't be quite as active on here as we approach the day as my home life has taken one hell of a hammering lately with this (as has been pointed out to me by my whole family :-( ) .. *but* I'll still be working on things through to the last minute nonetheless even if it's not updated so much on here. OK, We have the Welcome Packs well on the way to completion - Car-Chem have supplied a fantastic luxury product sample, and MotorGeek has supplied a really great range of samples of products I think you will find incredibly useful on a day to day basis. SNG Barratt UK have very kindly supplied something I didn't expect and again will be of daily use. I am just waiting on Harwoods Jaguar, and the mystery unexpected sponsor that *may* pop up. I cannot thank our sponsors enough for their support of this event.. I need to get confirmation from The Automatic Gearbox Centre that they are coming (I always double check everyone as the date approaches) and I'm going to have another go at getting us newspaper coverage from the local papers.. I have double checked the breakfast booking, and the same with Harwoods Jaguar Brighton and they are both all OK for the day. Other than that we are almost there - please remember that I am doing what I can to stretch the welcome packs but they are going to be on a one per car, and first come first served basis at this meet. I am hoping for a great day for everyone - remember if you are reading this and are considering coming along please put your name forward :-) Oh yes - one final thing - as always I am looking for anyone who has a spare seat who can offer a lift to/from the event should anyone's own car fail or be unavailable on the day - just in case... we look after our own :-)

Just a brief update guys so you know where we are with things.. as always any queries or suchlike just drop me a pm here, or email me at jaguarforumsuk@solidlinux.co.uk. We currently have a mix of Jaguar and other marques covering the years 1968-2014 which is quite an achievement.. thankyou to all of you for making it possible! We have 40 cars signed up currently, and just under 50 attendees coming along, and of those 40 cars, 37 should be on the convoy or cruise down the A23 making quite an impact as we all pull in to Madiera Drive on the Brighton seafront. We have a negotiated block booking at the Madiera Cafe at a fixed cost of £5 per person including tea/coffee and with this being winter time, the parking on the seafront is £1 for an hour, £2 for 2 hours, £4 for 4 hours or £7 for 11 hours. The £4 option with maybe a £1 topup should suffice. This meet we have Welcome Packs (one per car) which contain dashboard sheets to use on parking, so we know who is with us, and which car is with whom, the itinerary, plus advertising literature, sample products from our new sponsors and details of the next meet in 2015! Looking at the figures so far I would appear to have misjudged the number of people wanting to attend a meet at this time of year, so the Welcome Packs are likely to be distributed on a first come first served basis - I am sorry it is genuinely my fault, but I will do better for the May meet! :-) I have double checked with Harwoods Jaguar that they will be attending and all is OK... and I have contacted 'The Automatic Gearbox Centre' to double check as well, but am currently waiting on a final confirmation from them. Please take advantage of both of them with any questions or issues you may have, that is why they are there for us. I have been approached by one other potential sponsor which might give a twist to the Welcome Pack and match it more to the time of year - I will obviously let you guys know if it goes ahead. If you are reading this and wondering whether to come along.. why not put your name forward by a post on here or just email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk ? Even if you can't make this one I am very close to starting off the bookings for the May 2015 meet and already have some attendees waiting for it to be listed.. you can always sign up to that one..

This years winter meet is happening on Sunday 7th December - with a social run down from Pease Pottage Services to Madiera Drive, Brighton, everyone parking up in one huge block of cars (parking £1 per hour, £4 for the morning, or £7 for the day), followed by a fixed price big breakfast (£5.00 per person inc tea/coffee) to set us up for the morning. I am in the process of organising what I can and meanwhile a full itinery has been listed above including all and any exact costs there are.. so you know everything you need to know before the event. It's a great chance for you to have a break from the Christmas rush and shopping and to have some time with great company, fantastic cars, a mug of tea and something to eat.. Please note that with this being the Winter meet it is open to other marques - with a warm Jaguar welcome for everyone. In case you are wondering - this will be the third Bi-Annual Brighton meet and the details of the last one can be found here: UK South East Meet Spring/Summer 2014 in Brighton if you want to check it out..Just so you know who has indicated an interest (in no particular order) in attending on the day, so far it looks like this....
