Persons Sweeney, due to the size of the plant and the machinery that you get VERY close to, they try to keep the numbers manageable for H & S reasons.. :D

[Sweeney]

Understood :) I'll still lose a body part though so bring the first aid kit.

How certain is the date etc? (i.e. can i put in for the day off or wait a few months?)

I would book the day off now as this happened earlier this year, we only go the date confirmed in January for the tour in April... :eek:;):approve:

Basically they haven't started taking bookings yet for next year, but because Ulrika got to see guys in kilts, a NewMiniScotland Limited Edition Oxford Run T-Shirt and Sticker, we get special treatment... :I

[gill]

Gill, Ewan & Jamie (possibly, if he wants to come) and he'll be 14 by then!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D

He's a big lad anyway - who'll notice!?!?;)

[Sweeney]

Ok craig will put the form in tomorrow!

My 20Q syndrome has really kicked in now :p

Will everyone be staying at the holiday inn again (i.e. same as this years run) ?
Who's meeting where?

[AndyP & Lenore]

I'm not going anywhere with Sweeney until he learns the difference between these two symbols:

[sedgie]

Och i'll bring him a wee dress so he can nip in the ladies without peeps givin him a seconed look;);):D

[Sweeney]

Directions and knowing where to go is one thing, finding a hotel is another. Combine the two and you have what i'll end up NOT doing! :D

I'll need more than a dress to pass as a female :clown:

[ianking]

Yes please for Sarah and me.

[N12 JLK]

[Crombers]

Quick phone call to MrD & made the list by a baw'hair.

[Duncan Stewart]

This is getting ridiculous, a run filled up a few hours after it's posted :(
Need to be the reserves for Helen & I then

[PASL]

[N12 JLK]

Is it possible to make it a 2 day event so the reserves list can get in also:question:

Yep, that's what I was thinking... just to make it fairer on everyone else! :D

[Sweeney]

Sounds like a good idea, could be a rather entertaining drive down with the massive convoy of minis and the view of the hotel car park with us all parked up would be interesting :p

[N12 JLK]

If they say no then we can all go down and protest:blackeye::blackeye::p

[Sweeney]

You would think they would take us all (split into 2 groups that is) have one group go in 15mins earlier or so?

What you actually get is:

Door bashes 'cos the car park is jammed.:eek:
Mints in a tub on the bar, which everyone has had there hands in from-and-to the toilets.:eek::dead:
Toe pickings from the last weirdo traveling tool-salesman still left under the duvet.:eek::D;)

And what's the bets you end up bunking with Sweeney and he snores like a trooper?:eek::blackeye::blackeye:;)

A.:D

[Craig]

Right.....

before anyone gets their knickers in a knot about who is getting to go and who isn't, I have a plan. ;)

Some people have already muted that they will probably make it a 2 day stay down in Oxford. As we are 8 months away from the date BMW will not confirm anything, so be rest assured I WILL try to get everyone there....:approve::approve:

As for a convoy.... keeping 13 cars in convoy down the M6 was hard enough :eek:;):D:approve:

[Duncan Stewart]

:D Great work Craig :D
As for the convoy don't worry about keeping us all together as it's just a straight run down the motorway. As long as we know where the stops are we will all regroup at them.

it's OK duncan, this is not the real run thread... this was just to get interest. It will be deleted nearer the time and 2 threads will be started. A banter thread and a run thread so that it is much easier to find out the information that matters rather than trawl through pages of nonsense.. ;)

[Clare1]

ME ME ME!!! Please!!

Craig, please put myself + Paul down for this run as reserves. If you manage to sort out that Saturday morning one aswel, even better.

Cant miss ANOTHER one, and as i wont be 21 again this year then timing is cool!! lol

[Burple]

Gah.. how did I miss this? :(

Put me an' Ellie down on the reserves please! :cool::D

[Sheilz]

Me and Nik also want to do this again. Hopefully without any of the dramatics we had in April. Can we go on reserve list? Cheers

nope, Sheilz stuck her car into her local garage to get her tyres checked etc for the long run and when they put the wheels back on, they forgot to tighten the nuts and by the time she got to Oxford, one of the back wheels nearly came off... :eek::blackeye::D after some tightening (and some assistance from Mini Assistance) it got sorted :approve:

she was none to pleased.... imagine that coming off on the M6 at motorway speeds :eek: doesn't bear thinking about.. :disapprove:

[Sweeney]

:eek: yet people wonder why i don't trust dealership/garage workshops :p

That sort of thing is a school boy error, same with not putting enough/any oil in after a service/oil change etc. Shouldn't happen from a trained garage! :blackeye:

[ELFMAN]

I've been away on holiday on 26th Aug, then straight back into work!!!!!! I've missed all this......B*ll*cks! B*ll*cks! B*ll*cks!

Well, I suppose Andy will just have to share the Werther's with the rest of you lucky g*ts...... Humph. See what happens when ye turn yer back for a coiuple of weeks??? I can take a hint.........

ps B*ll*cks!!!! I had a great time on the last one.

[Craig]

do not get upset wee man, you never know what might happen.... ;) I'll put your on the reserves.. :D

[ELFMAN]

Ta Craig. (He's not a bad lad, you know).

Just goes to show what an enthusiastic, dynamic and accelerative bunch NMS folks are! Would have been very strange if the places DIDN'T fill up quickly. I know I did.... Thinks.....If anyone has the new 'MkII' MINI by then - the BOOT'S a bit bigger, and I'm a short *rse......

[The Dogfather]

There's nearly enough for a second run, do they do more than one tour a night :question:

Two tours one convoy! Just a thought......

OK,

before this goes anywhere, here is the plan that is already in motion. I have thought about this a lot, 'cos I remember what it was like to miss the first trip.. :disapprove:

I have spoken to Plant Oxford and they only do 1 evening tour (as it takes approx 2 and half hours).

Ulrika (who is in charge of the tours etc at Oxford) has spoken to me and says that if we want to take more people, just to let her know. What I am proposing to do is have a Sat Morn tour (for all the reserves), however I need to double check that this is possible nearer the time as they cannot confirm the tours till about 3 - 4 months before.

SO......... I am doing all is possible to get everyone that wants to go, experience Plant Oxford :approve:

If there are going to be 2 tours, then there will be 2 convoys. If this happens I would need a couple of volunteers to look after the 2nd convoy as they would be able to travel down at a more "sensible" hour on the fri.

More info as I have it.. :D

[hyperflick]

OK!!!! If this happens for the 2nd Tour then please put my name down as i have missed the other organised tours:eek::eek::eek::eek:

Would so enjoy the tour round the mothership:D:D:D:D

Please add my name to the reserve list!!!!;);););)

[Craig]

no probs Flick, 'tis done. :D

got an Email from Ulrike at Plant Oxford to say that we will be accomodated. She has said they will either run 2 tours on the friday night at the same time or she will try and sort out a Sat Morn tour for the second group. Whatever way you look at it, we get 60 people on a tour of the factory! :D

Alan,

it's as confirmed as it gets with BMW until about 3 months before the tour. They only give you 100% guarantee then :approve: As for the hotel, they do not do a block discount, believe me I tried VERY hard to get a discount.

We will all fit in, my advice would be for people to book asap as you can cancel right up until 1pm of the day you are arriving.

Paul, it's completely up to your own personal choice (and budget)

a lot of people earlier this year went straight back up the road on the saturday, crombers went to see his sister and had a wee holiday, Neil and Lorna went from there for a holiday, some other people stayed another night. A few of us visited the Gaydon Motor Museum, some visited Minisport on the way back up the road.

Basically what I'm saying is there are no definate plans for the return home, it's kinda like, speak to other people and maybe get a group of you that wants to do the same thing.. :D

or just go home on your own like Jason and Lesley :eek:;):D

Smitty when you book the Premier Travel Inn, they secure the booking on a credit card, but don't charge you anything until you actually check in. You have until something like 1pm on the day of arrival to cancel. Providing you cancel before that time, you won't be charged a penny. Hope this helps.

yes you are down as reserves, but to be honest, EVERYBODY who is on the list is down a provisional. ;)

Only once Plant Oxford GUARANTEE that the tours are going ahead, (and it's highly unlikely) will everyone be confirmed. <and I couldn't be bothered to change the post from reserves to 2nd tour...:eek:;):approve:)






oh and yes your being picky.... do you want to go :evil: AND you can book your hotel, they do not take money from your credit card til the day you arrive.........AND you can cancel your room up until 1pm on the day your due to arrive...........

Just in case anyone else was a little confused about this, I gave Craig a call. He's away from a PC now for the evening so he asked me to clarify the terminology in the above...

He didn't mean to say the tours are highly unlikely to go ahead, which is how I read it and near sh@t myself:eek:. He meant that it was highly likely the tours WILL go ahead. BUT, BMW being BMW, they will NOT give an absolute confirmation in writing that that date is OK until the new year.

Hope this helps anyone else who have started heart palpitations at the very thought of an Oxford tour being "highly unlikely".

Anyone fancy a tour of the BMW Factory to see the new model being built ? ?:D:D

I have spoken with the lovely Ulrika ka ka ka ka at BMW Oxford (who arranges the tours) and have arranged another date for a tour. As with all the changes currently going on in the factory, she can't confirm it for absolute definate, but she does not see it being a problem.

The date I have selected (to ensure I keep my plums and my marriage;)) is Friday 13th April (anyone superstitious ?) :D

The format will be the same, leave early on Friday morning from various locations for a convoy down to Oxford, Bite to eat, tour at approx 18:00hrs, then back to the bar for a chat. On the Sat, people can suit themselves... (some came straight back up the road, some went on holiday, some went to a car museum on the way home... all up to yourselves).

All i want is notes of interest from those that want to go. There will be a cap on numbers of 30. Please remember that under 14's are not allowed on the tour.

I will post up more info as I get it, so if your interested, stick your name down... :approve::approve: It may be a popular run, so I will have reserves as people always drop out due to work/commitments that are unforeseen. ;)

For those that want a wee bit more info - see last year's thread... http://www.newminiscotland.co.uk/snitzforums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5667

That's our hotel booked for 13th. Looking forward to this.

[Craig]

I have got some FANTASTIC news.. :approve::approve::approve::approve::approve::appr ove::approve::approve:

Urlike has email'd me this afternoon to confirm the tour dates and times.

We have a tour confirmed for the evening of Friday 13th April (Approx 19:00hrs) and also a tour confirmed for the morning Saturday 14th April (Approx 09:00hrs). She has also confirmed that we can have 33 people on each tour!!!, that means EVERYONE ON THE LIST INCLUDING RESERVES CAN GO!!! :approve::approve:

To stop any confusion, what I propose to do is have 2 convoys. The first convoy will be the same as last year. We will leave early on Friday morning (7am from hamilton from memory) and make our way down.

The Sat tour will leave (I would suggest @ 09:00hrs) on the friday from the same locations... This means that I need someone from the second tour to take charge of it and look after it for the run down.

I am not prepared to have 40ish cars in convoy down the M6 as this will only draw attention to ourselves with the boys in blue and this is not a good thing. 2 convoys are much easier to handle and should allow everyone (including myself!) to enjoy the run down..

Ulrike would also like to have some info/pics from the journey for their associate magazine...:approve::approve:

Toni, (Minimad)

if you want to go on the Friday tour, just see if you can get someone to swap with you. We are stuck with the numbers we have... sorry.;)

I wouldn't be running to get to Minisport, their service is PANTS, but if you really want to go there on the Sat, i'm not going to stop you..:D

I have no problem with you going on friday as long as you get a couple of people to swap to the sat morn tour.:D

[minimad]

hi craig thanks for the info i just thought minisport is the mecca for mini owners:)

[james f]

not for me althought its also on route and called Lohen :) top guys and top servie everytime as im stopping off to poss get mine lowered on the way back and poss some other stuff

[minimad]

james minisport are doing eibach springs for £90 lohen £141:question:

[james f]

minisports only lower by 20mm and lohens go 30mm and perosnaly i would rather pay the extra and have lohen or GTT do mine as lohen stuff is pretty much all done by race techs who work on club sport 911's ferrairs and classic f1 cars

[minimad]

james youve nearly convinced me is lohen far from oxford:question:

[minimad]

just checked distance about 110 miles north,james let me know if you want to go,ifancy getting my mini lowered too:D:cool:i take it youve been before:question:

No.

[AndyP & Lenore]

30 MINI's on the M6 would be chaos. There was 17 MINI's last year and because of the steady 70 MPH, and a safe gap between, it was difficult enough keeping track of everyone.

Craig would have to inform every police force all the way down and if he didn't, and any kind of incident occurred, they would not be happy bunnies. Still far better to keep two convoy's. IMHO, of course.:approve:

Craig would have to inform every police force all the way down and if he didn't, and any kind of incident occurred, they would not be happy bunniesWhy do you have to tell the police :question:

[AndyP & Lenore]

When we first started organising runs this was the advice I got from Calum (MMM) and when I did phone them the week before to let them know we were doing a run I was told off and told that I "Should have given them at least a months notice in writing to the Inspector of Traffic Division". They always reply with "We can't say yes, we can't say no, but you are obliged to let us know of an organised event and we appreciate you letting us know".

Since then, every run I've organised with more than 15 or so cars, I've written/emailed the police.

A.:D

[Craig]

Your right Andy. If we were to keep to the letter of the law, ANY organised event should be notified to the police when using the public roads (as per our Road Policing Unit). I have not contacted all the forces we are going through as we are keeping the numbers down a fair bit and we will all be driving sensibly.. ;):D
