Okay, I think everything is sorted
Premier Inn will not give a group discount unless one person (ie the Club) pays the whole bill, which is of
course not an option. So, people will need to book the hotel themselves and I will paste the link below.
I will arrange with the onsite restaurant for us to have our own dedicated seating area on the Saturday night
so that we can all sit together, chat, and have our normal presentations. I am hoping we can have (a) guest
speaker/s too, but this is something I will arrange in due course.
For those travelling from further away, you can of course stay at the hotel on the Friday night too, however this
won't be an 'official' evening, it will be more of a social evening for those of you arriving Friday.
The itinerary is currently as follows:
Saturday 19th June 2021 - The British Motor Museum, Gaydon, Warwickshire. Club members will
be given a voucher for 50% off entry to the Museum, which must be presented on entry to get the discount.
I am also hoping we can do our 'doors aloft' drive down to the museum, which was a particular feature of ours
when we used to attend 'Supercar Sunday'. As it stands at the moment, Gaydon require all visitors over 11yrs
to wear a face covering whilst inside the museum buildings.
The museum has in the past couple of years undergone a major overhaul. During the day, we will invite entries
and voting in our traditional 'Peoples Choice' competition, with the winner getting a trophy that evening.
Between returning from Gaydon, and the evening meal, there will no doubt be an opportunity for a bit of tinkering
for those who need any technical help or advice with their cars.
In the evening, I would expect us to go to the restaurant for dinner around 7.30-8.00pm. Due to the numbers,
the restaurant may want us to pre-book our meals to help the kitchen out and also make sure our meals all come
out together and in good time. I will confirm this though. After dinner, we will have talks, presentations, and
generally relax and have a good time.
Sunday 20th June 2021 - Bicester Heritage, Bicester, Oxfordshire. I have arranged that we will have a Club stand
at their 'Super Scramble' event. Bicester Heritage is familiar to some members here and is an excellent day out with
lots too see and do, plus we will be part of a larger multi-marque event so it will be an opportunity to mingle with
other clubs and owners and look around their cars as well as showing off our own.
The caveat of course, is the spectre of Covid-19, and of course none of us have a crystal ball and can predict with any
certainty where we will be 9 months from now. All we can do is hope, that things will have improved, and that we can
have a safe and Covid secure event and celebrate 40 years of the DeLorean DMC-12 and 25 years of the DeLorean Owners
Club UK.

I really hope as many of you as possible are able to support this event and come along, with or without a DeLorean. We are
a family friendly club, so please don't feel you need to leave partners or children at home to come along and join in the fun.
Thank you for your support, and on behalf of the Club Committee, we look forward to seeing as many of you as possible
next year.
