  DOC 2023 Event, Malvern, Worcs. 8-10 September
Posted by: Guinney1971 - 24 Apr 2023, 14:20 - Forum: DOC National Events, Car shows, AGM's and others - Replies (63)

Hi all,

can I first say a huge thank you to Richard Hanlon for the amazing work he's put into
organising this years DOC_UK meet up and taking on the task of sorting everything out.

We will be based at Malvern in Worcestershire, close to J7 of the M5.  The hotel we have
chosen is the Premier Inn, on Townsend Way, Malvern, WR14 1GD  Tel:  0333 321 9297.
This has an onsite restaurant and bar, and a free car park.  I would suggest you book early
to make sure as many of us as possible get to stay in the same place.
Prices are very reasonable, a double or family room there is currently £87 for the Friday and 
£116 for Saturday, so £203 in total (plus breakfast).  This is the standard, non refundable rate.
https://www.premierinn.com/gb/en/hotels/...LBC_MALTOW
There are other hotels and B&B's in the area should you need to or wish to book an alternative.

Itinerary:

Friday 8th September.
Arrive at hotel from 5pm onwards, evening meal, drinks in the bar, catch up with people, etc.

Saturday 9th September:
Breakfast, then leave hotel no later then 10.30am for the short drive to the Morgan Factory, where 
we will have a factory tour (last tour is 11.30am), followed by a buffet lunch that Morgan will put on for us.
This event is being subsidised for members by the Club to show our appreciation of your continued
support over the years.  After we leave Morgan, we will have a scenic drive back to the hotel via
the Malvern Hills, a route often used by Morgan to test their cars.  There is also the option of booking a 
Morgan Experience Ride at extra cost (terms apply, see Morgan's website for details).
In the evening, we will have dinner in the restaurant, and we are currently in the process of 
hopefully arranging a guest speaker to give us a talk after dinner.  Then the evening is yours to 
spend how you wish.

Sunday 10th September:
Breakfast and check out of hotel.  Then its a short 25-30 minute drive to the stunning National Trust
property of Croome which incorporates RAF Defford which is now a museum and visitor centre.
Croome is a recently restored property set in large grounds, which were one of the first gardens designed
by 'Capability' Brown, and over the years has had a range of uses including the headquarters of the Hari 
Krishna in the UK.  After falling into decline, restoration started in the 1990's.  Its now a beautiful site, 
with acres of parkland, lakes, walled gardens, the house itself, and the RAF Museum.  This is not subsidised,
but if you are National Trust Member, then you do get in for free (walled garden which is privately owned
is £5 extra).  https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/w...ire/croome

We really hope as many of you as possible can make it and we will be sending a flyer out in the next week
or so to all members to get the word out.

Please reply on this thread that you are coming, as we need to give numbers to Morgan for catering and tour
purposes.  We will also need to let Morgan know about any dietary requirements, like gluten free, vegan, etc.

Once again, can I say a massive thank you to Richard for all his hard work in arranging this weekend event, 
and I look forward to it being a success and well supported.

  Dark Grey Headliner Material
Posted by: Justwatching - 09 Apr 2023, 12:46 - Forum: DeLorean Cars or Parts For Sale or Wanted - Replies (1)

It's the darker grey, so for black interior cars. A little dusty from storage. Looks like some pieces have been cut off from one end of the roll (see picture). 

225cm long x 151.5cm wide.

New roll on DeloreanGo for £60, or you have this one for £20. 

I can probably bring it along to an event within a couple of hours of Shropshire. Buyer to collect or cover postage otherwise.

  DeLorean News, Spring 2023
Posted by: Guinney1971 - 31 Mar 2023, 11:53 - Forum: General Discussions on the DOC / Car / Company / JZD - No Replies

Hi all,

just a heads up, the printers are putting together the latest issue of DeLorean News which
will be posted to members as soon as possible.

The delay, in part, has been caused by a lack of material to actually put in the magazine, which
has resulted in a few of us scrabbling a few articles and photos together to complete it.

The Summer issue will be due out in a couple of months, but only if we get content for it!

So, please please please, can members put together articles to share with the wider membership.
It could be a show you attended, a job you did, a car you've just purchased and is getting to know,
anything!  

Email anything you have to myself or Chris, Word Documents are easiest, but we can work around it,
with some photos so that we can get the next magazine in the pre-production stage.
secretary@deloreans.co.uk or treasurer@deloreans.co.uk

Remember, its your magazine, but we can only send it out if we've got something to print in it!

  Bath Festival Of Motoring, 17 & 18th June 2023
Posted by: Chris Williams - 29 Mar 2023, 17:50 - Forum: South West - No Replies

Hi Chris,

I hope this email finds you very well. Firstly please accept my apologies for reaching you through this email address if this isn't the most appropriate way to contact you and please ignore if this isn't relevant to the members of the Delorean Owners Club (UK).
I'm writing on behalf of the Bath Rotary Festival of Motoring which is due to take place on Father's day weekend (17th-18th June) and we're keen to see as many fantastic vehicles there as possible as the proceeds go to charity - this year we're supporting the Air Ambulance and St Mungo's, and last year over £20,000 was raised for the charities we supported.
If you think any of your members would be interested in exhibiting their vehicles at the festival I would be very grateful if you could pass this on, vehicles can be registered here and it is also possible to register as a club so that you can exhibit a number of vehicles together. 
Apologies again for the cold email and thank you for reading. Any questions or queries please don't hesitate to reach out and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
Many thanks,
Dave Shaw
Bath Rotary Festival of Motoring Committee

  Steam/Classic car Festival Barking & Dagenham 7th May 2023
Posted by: Chris Williams - 29 Mar 2023, 17:49 - Forum: London - No Replies

Dear all,
 
Hope you are well and safe.
 
Due to HM the Queen’s passing last year, we had to cancel the Steam & Cider Fair 2022, which was a huge shame as it was returning after two years, and we would have had a great turnout of classic vehicles. Undeterred, we want you to join us with your classic vehicle at this year’s One Borough Festival in Valence Park on Sunday 7 May. The One Borough Festival will be taking the best bits from our most popular festivals including the Steam and Cider Fair as well as the Roundhouse Music Festival to bring an exciting free family fun day, which is part of the Coronation weekend. We want the classic vehicle display to steal the limelight to show our residents the amazing vehicles we have. This year we want it to be bigger and better than ever before!
 
The car show is a great way to promote your club as the event attracts around 8,000 people with many car enthusiasts.
 
Please find attached vehicle application form to showcase your vehicle at this year’s One Borough Festival on Sunday 7 May at Valence Park. If you are interested in attending, please complete and return.
 
Further information about the event can be found at www.lbbd.gov.uk/oneboroughfest  
 
We would be grateful if you could share this with other enthusiasts, colleagues, websites, magazines, clubs and friends so we can make this bigger than before!
 
We look forward to seeing you and your classic vehicle at the event!
 
Thanks
 
Regards,
