Hi Julie,

 

We would like to invite your members to an exclusive event for the owners of Lotus, Caterham and Westfield cars on June 15th here at The Great British Car Journey.

 

Since opening in May 2021, we have been awarded a TripAdvisor Excellence Award, three Peak District & Derbyshire Tourism Awards Visit and are also a Visit England Quality Assured Attraction.

 

Our attraction houses a collection of over 140 British cars from the early 1900s to the early 2000s. The collection begins in the early 1900s right up to the current day and there's everything in between - Austin Sevens, Minis, Morris Minors, Triumph Spitfires, Ford Escorts, etc. - marques and models that have long since disappeared from our roads but are remembered fondly by many car enthusiasts.

 

As the name suggests, visitors experience not just a car museum but an interactive nostalgic journey celebrating the heyday of British motoring.

 

As well as our superb collection, we offer ample on-site car parking and a licensed café - The Filling Station, which offer a range of catering options to suit all budgets, from breakfast rolls to brunch, buffets to burgers.

 

Our themed event days such as the one on June 15th, offer the chance not only to take the museum tour at a huge discount, but visit the outside attractions,  and refuel yourself in the Filling Station Cafe too. 

 

Simply click the link below to pre-pay tickets at £10 per person (usually £19.50 on the door).

Will try but it is Spare Seat Pete’s birthday and also Father’s Day so I am not necessarily in control of arrangements for that day. I will drop you a note nearer the time. ABC. 

[Steve Bosworth]

It’s also my WSCC area meet so you can definitely come, as can other seven style cars.

Fingers crossed the weather forecast stays dry, this should be a good gathering, hoping it stays nice enough to have a run out afterwards too.

Took the westy for a shakedown run today, so fingers crossed after spanner checks this week I'll be able to join you 😁😁😁

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

I may come along if I get a chance, but probably just for the meet, if I do.

Coming with Spare Seat Pete!!
