Yes I know this is an age off.. but I usually start things off quite a way in advance.. now I know winter is usually a dark grey sort of time of year with plenty of rain, wind, and bad weather leaving us little choice but to hunker down in front of a TV watching archived film clips of our favourite cars on TopGear..
In south east UK we don't do this - we organise our bi-annual Brighton convoy & meet!
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..
Depending on how many people are interested I will try to get something more organised if I can..

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....

If you would like to be added please just make a post saying so (or if non member email me to be added) and I will be happy to add you to the list.

Listed below are Car details plus occupants (inc driver) where we have the info.

Hi Jgbird,
Welcome to the forum - if you haven't yet I would advise popping a post into New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to introduce yourself to everyone - we are a very friendly bunch :-) and it's worth you updating your signature with your car details and maybe a pic which will make it easier for others to help you as and when you need help.
Are you interested in the meet itself, or the convoy and meet? If you can let me know I will get you added in and I look forward to meeting on the day..

Anyone wondering whether to come along or not - why not have a look at the thread for the last meet? https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/u...ighton-107585/ and you'll see what you could be missing out on... why not put your name forward and come along to a guaranteed good day out - sort of a Jaguarish TopGear sort of day..

If you are still undecided, why not put your name forward anyway - it's a free event, costs nothing to sign up for, and even when signed up you are not committed until the final date is voted on.. and it's even easy to sign up to.. pop a post up here in the thread, email me at stephen.sheldon@solidlinux.co.uk, or even whatsapp me your details at 07914116375. So go on, you know your car deserves a Christmas break, and you deserve good conversation, food, mugs of tea, and some great cars to look around.. why not put your name forward?

Hi Guys,

I have had a response from Jaguars Senior Manager for Sponsorship & Brand Partnerships saying that they view the Bi-Annual meet as a UK opportunity, and I have moved onto another member of Jaguar staff that deals with UK sponsorship.. I am somewhat more hopeful now that we can achieve a degree of support from JLR theirselves for our event.. I will keep you guys updated as I go, bearing in mind it has taken quite a few months to get this far with Jaguar :-) I will keep plugging away as I really feel that we have a great event, and if we can get support from Jaguar theirselves there is so much more we can do for us and the cars we love so much..

OK I have the (currently) final response from Jaguar..

.. we are not taking on any new projects at the moment - got a lot on our plate!

I gave it a go :-( and apologies for failing, but not to worry I will revisit them next year in case the situation changes :-)

Meanwhile we still have our meet to organise.. I am still anticipating Harwoods Jaguar attending the meet along with a showroom car, and advice on servicing, and sales - any one interested in coming along in December please pop a post up her or drop me an email and I'll add you in. It is sure to be a great day, breaking up the winter doldrums we are all suffer with...

Thanks for trying, Steve - I guess we're not big enough for them.

Ok I'm back from my five days of looking for Jaguars in Switzerland and back on the case.. so anyone wanting to put theirselves forward for what is due to be a great Jaguar day out by the seaside (yes I know it'll be winter but.. you never know nowadays.. could be glorious weather :-)) please pop a post on here or drop me an email and I'll add you in...

OK guys, time for an update - not much of one as it is a quiet time of year and tracking anyone down is a bit of a nightmare lol .. on the day the Jag gallery, will ensure it is open for any meet attendees to have a look around for some culture (owned and hosted by a fellow Jag owner) and I *will* be able to arrange a fixed meal deal again for us - possibly with the same cafe, or another one I have in mind.
If anyone wants to be added to the list of interested members please pop a post up on here, drop me a pm via the forum or email me at stephen.sheldon@solidlinux.co.uk and I will add you in.. :-)

Hi Egg, I will add you in for both the meet and the convoy.
I am currently waiting on feedback from the Brighton & Hove Highways Dept as to the availability of Madeira Drive.. as soon as I have the available dates I will put them up on here to see who can make which of the dates and pick the most popular.. either way it will be a Sunday with a likely meet time of 8:45 at Pease Pottage Services..
Please keep an eye on this thread for more info as it appears :-)

I can do any of these dates; however, worth noting that 28/12 is between Xmas & New Year, when a lot of people may be away or tied up with family commitments.
