Celebrate 40 years of the Golf GTI!
« on: August 09, 2016, 10:59:07 pm »
Not sure if this has been posted before but I'm definitely going as it's a one off event. Only 150 places available (60 taken so far) plus free food, what's not to like?!

I have put my name down. Its on my doorstep, so why not and I own a GTi.  Some rather strict rules, but all it is  40 year celebration of the GTI after all.

Put my name down. What do you do, just tell them your username on the gate? Or is it first come first served type thing?

I would have thought they have a list of usernames that they tick off once you arrive. Great to see there are already 2 people signed up  :happy2:

As a new Pirelli Owner, and long term PHer I was keen to go to this, but if the traffic is light it's 6 hour round trip, for a 3 hour event so I'm going to have to give it a miss. A shame!

I'm bailing out too I'm afraid. It's a 8 hour round trip for me plus the weather isn't looking great, was hoping to get the car gleaming tomorrow but that's just not going to happen.

I gather that the event is now full (was limited to 150 places).  If anybody has a ticket that they are not going to use perhaps they could pass on to someone on the forum who want's to go but can't get a ticket..... like @CosmicGTI

[I have a ticket, but I'm going to go]
