What's up with the L2B website with no recent updates and poor grammar?

optimism for getting a mini on the road for london to brighton :dontgetit:
I've still got to get the crank reground, new shells, new piston rings, hone and deal with the head
rebuild my engine and lift it in!
14 days is plenty of time :mrcool:

Thought i'd check in - its been a while.

Well due to delays by the body shop our mini is still sat in the garage waiting to go and be painted, so theres no way it will be ready for the run. However I have managed to blag a BMW Mini John Cooper Works for the weekend, so I will still be doing the run. I know I know its not right but its the best i can do...please dont hurt me :mrcool:

L2B will be my first EVER mini show. Sadly not with my mini, which is only in the early stages of my 'makeover/restoration'. I am going straight to
Brighton by car. Does anyone who has been before have any recommendations on where to park and what sort of time to get to Brighton?
I'm looking forward to getting some inspiration from you lovely people and your cars!


You'd want to get to Brighton as early as possible. Honestly, its going to be jam packed (just make sure where ever you park you read the signs etc)

Edit: Mini is MOT'd & Taxed as of yesterday ready to rock and roll.

Im not gunna be able to make the run this year :/ Really annoyed about this was my main goal this year. but nevermind you win some you lose some. So my ticket is up for sale for face value of £30 PM me if your interested. The ticket would have to be collected as my car is off the road atm. Damn insurance being stupidly expensive for us young-uns.

so it's less than two weeks for the L2B and still no updates on the official site... mind the last update was on March 13th!!!

quoting:

Itinerary still to be confirmed

The Itinerary for this event has not been confirmed yet, please visit this page again closer to the event when all the details will have been confirmed.



yeah, new organisers and bla bla... but still 30 quid and I think we have the right to know why are we paying them for. is it just for a T-shirt and a parking space by the seaside?

sorry, it is my first one and so far I'm not impressed at all!!

anyone on here can enlighten us with what's going on?? :tumble:

To be honest ... a tshirt, plaque, camping space for a night, full days parking on seafront brighton for up to 4 people at £30 is quite good anyway. I'm sure there'll be an update soon as to the itinerary.

On the other hand, it's still pretty lame of them, spose we'll just have to wait for one.

It'll be my first mini meet ever :tumble:
