Cool

Hi,

I'm preparing with two other scooby owners a trip to London (20-22 April).

We are eager to visit places like Scoobysport and Prodrive HQ.

Any other places or events we should check out?

Thanks,

António Correia Jr.

Unhappy

Ouch! Prodrive don't do tours unless pre-booked - so make sure you contact them first, the 15 April see's the first round of TOCA at Brands Hatch and a Trackzone day at Donington, you are out by a week!
Hope you enjoy your stay though,
Chuck

After your trip Antonio
If theres ever anything you want to purchase i could being it to portugal with me as i visit there quite a lot as my parents live on the Algarve in Almancil so i could drop it off there for you if you wished.

(i wouldnt trust posting it, we have so many things go missing between here and portugal).

Thanks for all your comments.

I knew a serious topic is something unattainable in this forum...

ptholt: thanks for your offer. Fortunately I've never had any trouble with internet deals. If you find any Imprezas in Almancil, please tell them about the Portuguese club "www.imprezapt.cjb.net"

Pete: I'll be seeing you shortly! (hope you have some special low prices for foreign customers... ).

Dave: should I hire you to negotiate with Pete for us?

Oh blimey, i've started something now.......

Antonio
"Dave: should I hire you to negotiate with Pete for us?" - not if you want a bargain/discount mate

"I knew a serious topic is something unattainable in this forum" - true, but I did ask someone to give you some suggestions in reply to your post - and this will put it back to the top - serious suggestions please everybody.....

Pete
Can I have a foreigner discount too please?

LOL at you guys

I had to interview a new member of staff on Saturday. Perhaps we could all get together for a pint when Antonio is over.

And then do it all again when Jerry and Joe are over in the summer

If you are heading north out of London you are welcome to come stay up here in Leeds....might be a good stop off if you are doing a bit of travelling up north...

All the best

Hell no, didnt say that about postmen.

Hi Antonio,

Not sure whether it's your thing, but if you do manage to go to Prodrive - which I believe is in Banbury - just up the road from in Warwick is the Heritage Museum.

Enjoy your stay
