To try and make the annual AGM a bit more ‘user friendly’ it has been decided that this year we will hold the AGM at the Coventry Transport Museum; http://www.transport-museum.com/ Tel; 024 7623 4270. This will be on the 20th September 2009, at the same time as holding a friendly informal DeLorean car meet.
The museum is free to enter and we have arranged to hire a meeting room for our AGM in the afternoon between 3 and 5pm within the transport museum. We also have exclusive use of Millennium Place, the public events arena directly in front of the museum for display of owner’s cars that decide to attend. There is no public parking at the museum, however there are plenty of public car parks in the area. Again I would stress that entry to the museum is free of charge.
Whilst I appreciate that the AGM has been brought forward by 6 weeks, we feel that combining a car show with a free to enter museum in the centre of the country is a good compromise. Enabling us to show our cars off, have a good day out at the museum and getting the AGM out of the way rather than trying to fit it in at the main NEC show, which is very expensive to attend.
Clearly this will not suit everybody, however, we feel that this is the best compromise. If you would like to attend in your DeLorean for display (and free parking) then you will need to bring an oil spill mat or something similar to lay on the ground underneath your engine to catch any drops of oil that may leak, the museum are very insistent on this! Please also can you let me know if you are attending in your car so I have an idea of the number of cars attending?
