Welcome to the 2017 Annual Convoy & Meet Event

This FREE event will be taking place on Sunday 28th May 2017 - with the main venue being Denbies Wine Estate, near Dorking.

It is a Jaguar EXCLUSIVE event!

There will then be a convoy through winding country roads, with gorgeous scenery, from Pease Pottage to our new venue at Denbies Wine Estate. It will be the first time these roads will have ever seen this number of Jaguars passing through, and will set the tone for our arrival at Denbies, where we will have a grassed, enclosed area set aside exclusively for us for the day.

Just a quick note to let you know that I am currently in touch with Pease Pottage Motorway Services regarding our event's start point there.
I have raised the issues we had last year with the discount on Costa products & am hopeful of a better solution for this year, and have asked them if they canb reserve the conservatory section for us.

As soon as I know more I will let you know :-)

 

Just to give you a taster of what we have on offer on the day of our event - we have two convoy routes (cruiser or advanced), two venues, three awards, two prize draws, Welcome Packs with info and goodies, trade stands with specialists on site, an incredible main venue with wine estate tours and tastings available.

One of our prize draws on the day is for a DIY Dinitrol Corrosion protection Kit, and the other for a number of prizes including wash systems, workshop manuals, Leather Care Kits, Engine remap voucher, bespoke luggage design voucher, even mugs, hats and more.

Our event is free to sign up for, and to attend and offers a great Jaguar day out for the family with free advice, product demonstrations, products at show prices, bookings taken, and so much more.

With just a few weeks to go why not sign up now and guarantee a great day out for you, your family and your Jaguar?

Don't have a Jaguar? You are very welcome to visit us at Denbies Wine Estate on the day and join in the fun.. you will get to meet real life Jaguar owners, gain the low down on the Jaguar marque, meet the latest showroom cars, and participate in our prize draws etc on the day - no need to sign up, just park up in the Denbies visitor car park and walk across to the Bachus field to meet everyone. If we still have Welome Packs available at the time you will be welcome to collect one free.

Hi Guys - It is THIS month :-) Suddenly it does not seem like long enough to sort everything, but in truth this event started being planned just a few days after our last one, it just doesn't feel like it :-)

I am due to pick up a car full of items for the event this week from one of our great sponsors, and during the next two weeks am waiting on delivery of some incredible goodies from two further sponsors - this is without doubt the biggest and best event to-date with more of everything including freebies and prizes for you.

If you have yet to sign up please, please do - we have a target of 200 Jaguars for this year and it would be incredible if we can manage it. We have a great day ahead for you suitable for the whole family, and it's free so why not sign up and join us? Even if you don't have a Jaguar on the day why not just come along and meet us at Denbies as a visitor as you can still collect a free Welcome Pack (subject to availability) and participate in the prize draws etc.

We have Jaguars spanning 63 years, models including everything from the latest XE Jaguars right through to MkIIs and XK140 & 150s. All competing for our 'Best Turned Out Jag', 'Best Interior' and 'Peoples Choice' awards on the day! Tony will be onsite from Harwoods Jaguar and will have the latest showroom models with him to add to this incredible list of Jaguars and there to answer all your servicing and sales quewtions, we will have specialists onsite to discuss any issues you may have from engine tuning, to leather care, valeting, cleaning and more.

Please consider signing up for this great free Jaguar event if you have not already - it is set to be a fantastic day out suitable for the whole family!

All you need to do is supply your Jaguar model, year or production, and how many people travelling to @JFBrightonMeets or www.facebook.com/JaguarForumsUK or JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk and that is it - you will be signed up :-) It is genuinely that simple to sign up for.

The event is free to sign up for and attend, with free Welcome Packs on arrival at the start. There are three awards with no entry fee required, and a prize draw for a Dinitrol Corrosion Prevention Kit also free. There will be a small charge for tickets for the main prize draw this year but there is a huge number of Jaguar orientated goodies to be won :-)

So go on, treat yourself, your family, and your Jaguar to a great free day out organised as only Jaguar owners would know how :-)

 

Hi Steve, hope all is working well for you - another amazing effort I see in the planning for the meeting on the 28th.

To confirm, it looks like we can now confirm we'll be joining you - but direct at Denbies I think rather than convoying. Jan and I should be there first thing - in the Project 7.

Looking forward to it.

Andy

 

Hi Andy.. my house is shrinking by the day with everything for the event lol.. At Denbies we will be setting up in the Bacchus field. DesignXKR will have a trade stand onsite and will be doubling up to help marshall on the day - but the field is apparently signposted on the site.

This year we have far more prizes, freebies, awards and more as a result of tying in more closely with our sponsors and advertising them more heavily, and for a longer period, than we have for previous events.

I am hoping for good weather on the day, as the long range weather forecast is very similar to previous years.. and this year we are on grass which may lead to issues should it rain more than just a little on the day.

Either way we all need to take more care at this venue now that we are not on tarmac, no matter how tempting it might be to try drifting cars into place :-)

It will be great to have you both along on the day - we should be arriving at Denbies around 11am, and please grab a Welcome Pack off me when you see me there - this year I will be set up slightly apart from everyone else with space for a table, laying out the prizes, banner etc.. finally much more professional lol

 

I can now announce that every Welcome Pack will come with a complimentary copy of the May edition of Classic Car Monthly - huge thanks to them for this :-)

 

The event banner has just arrived - don't forget to make sure you get to sign it on the day for posterity, and there will be group photo shots with it at the end of our day :-)

 

Welcome to the 2017 Annual Convoy & Meet Event

This FREE event will be taking place on Sunday 28th May 2017 - with the main venue being Denbies Wine Estate, near Dorking.

It is a Jaguar EXCLUSIVE event! This year things are set to be even bigger and better than ever before with more cars (we now have a ceiling of 300 vehicles), more sponsors (with some able to perform work on site for you!), more prizes to be won on the day, and our annual award of the prestigeous 'JaguarForums.com Best Turned Out Jaguar' award up for grabs again PLUS the new awards of 'Peoples Choice' and 'Best Interior'!

The initial meeting point will be Pease Pottage Services with a quick Welcome speech and your free Welcome Packs handed out.

There will then be a convoy through winding country roads, with gorgeous scenery, from Pease Pottage to our new venue at Denbies Wine Estate. It will be the first time these roads will have ever seen this number of Jaguars passing through, and will set the tone for our arrival at Denbies, where we will have a grassed, enclosed area set aside exclusively for us for the day.

Denbies will be laying on a breakfast for us upon arrival. The options being: Full English breakfast with Tea or Coffee & Orange juice £8.25, a Bacon or Sausage Buttie £3.50, and a Bacon or Sausage Buttie with Egg £4.75. Please note that there will also be 10% discount vouchers available to attendees to reduce these prices :-)

As you know we like to try to work with our sponsors to keep your Jaguar costs low... and we are pleased to say we have arranged the following discount codes (so far) for event attendees, which will be active from now until our event:

Additionally, following on from last year, we have the FREE service for attendees - the 'Don't Miss a Thing' texting service :-) If you drop me a line with your name & mobile number before the day we will ensure that you get a text just before any event on the day, such as banner signing, prize draws, winners of judged contests etc.. just drop a line to JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk if you would like to guarantee you miss nothing on the day..

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 £65 a night for attendees, plus guaranteed availability of rooms for us :-) please see their details below, or follow this link HolidayInn Express Crawley.
