Ultra pissed off that I missed it, bloody hangover..

Last year they had another batch which they released after (the unsold ones from clubs etc (they get their allocations earlier than general public)) so what ever aren't sold/used are then released back to the general public.

Also, if you've missed out keep am eye on Tmf. People can't attend due to mini/personal issues so they sell tickets.

There's also a l2b Facebook group.

Re joining the run without a ticket. You can be part of the run however you will not be allowed to take your mini into either crystal palace or maderia drive however you can park outside/else where in Brighton etc.

I think they said there wouldn't be a resale this year, but as others have said, keep an eye on here nearer the time as there's always a load of people whose Minis die on them before the event so tickets end up on sale. Be aware that if you do buy a ticket from here that you need to email them to get the reg number transferred.

It looks like they're still available from minispares

Who's going then?

All being well and I can manage to keep the rust at bay for just a little while longer; we're planning on travelling down from east York's/Hull on the Friday before to spend the Fri/sat in London.

I'll be driving down from Ironbridge near Telford on the Saturday, after picking up my friend to join me, then stopping at the Ace Cafe for lunch. Anyone else going the same route?

I've never driven into London from that direction, so it'd be good to follow someone with sat-nav!

SOOOOOOO looking forward to this.
We're coming all the way from Germany and this year's run will wil be the first time with our own Mini "Elsie", she's all excited. Fingers crossed we won't get crushed in the chaos on Madeira Drive...

Folks, If you have a ticket for sale, or require one, please post in the relevant sub forums, will save this thread getting clogged up and also conform to the forum rules and regulations regarding wanted/selling, thanks.

I'm thinking of going on Sunday, not been for 7 years or so, I remember parking was always difficult but the Marina was OK, can anyone confirm that this is still a good place to park, any idea of cost?

 

Thanks in advance.

[Trissy B]

Marina is free parking in both the multi story and ASDA carpark but in theory you should be a customer. In reality i've parked there all day multiple times and never seen a parking attendant. If you cant be bothered to walk all the way along to the Pier you can get on the Volks railway.

Word of warning Brighton council were installing average speed cameras along Marine Parade road. I don't know if they are fully installed and activated but just be careful

[MiniBK]

Hi, Can anyone tell me what time the route the cars take for London to Brighton, and what time they start arriving at Madeira Drive, Thanks

[Shep76S]

I think Madeira Drive is open from 10am, some cars will arrive before then......
