I visited this last year and spent the whole day totally absorbed by all there was to see. So I am very pleased to announce that the Hursley Motor Club is organising a club stand and Millie and I will be there.

I know there are several MoC members in Hampshire and around and would be very pleased to say hello.

I am very keen on attending but would rather park on a club stand than in a public car park.
Does this mean that any marlin club member can place there car on the hursley club stand? Does one need to obtain a pass or permission from the club?

Hi Peter,
I will try to find out if guests can attend. I assume you are driving your Marlin.

Last year they reserved a car park near the entrance for interesting cars that just showed up. So I think you could show up anyway.

Peter,
I am very sorry for the long time for this reply.

The delay has been caused because out of a potential 45 cars nearly all are in bits, on holiday or working abroad. We anticipated getting at least 10 cars to attend. Currently I have 4 on Sunday and 2 on Monday and a couple of Maybes. This disappointing and we might abandon the idea. We will take a decision next week.

We have decided since we have spare places that it is possible to host guests at this event.

The dates coincide with Liz & Doug Billings 6th Derbyshire Weekend but any club members that are not attending that would be welcome as guests.

I need to know:
o If you will be coming both days. If you need a camping pass.
o If you will be coming Sunday.
o If you will be coming Monday.

If you are attending please include the car's details:
Owner
Make/Model
Year
Reg. No.
The best way to let me know is by e-mail millie_marlin (at) hotmail.co.uk

I know there are a few owners in the vicinity and hope you can attend.

With great regret the Hursley Motor Club have had to withdraw from the pageant as we did not meet the minimum requirement of eight cars.

I shall still attend on Sunday hope to see you there.

I thought the Pageant of Motoring was Great. I know I wasn?t the only marlin to attend. With luck here are a couple of photos.

Yes I was there, and that's a picture of my car!
Had a good day as well,there were more classic cars there than I expected. Well worth attending but for next year will enter my car in the kit car class "T" , which has to be booked well in advance.
