Introduction.

As many of you might be aware, Pumapeople joined with The Tigra Club (TTC) to form a joint display during last September's Trax event. This event was a great success and we were all made to feel very welcome by the Tigra owners.

In light of the positive spirit in which this event took place, Adam (one of the TTC forum moderators and main meet organiser) and myself agreed that we would work together to devise another meet where the Puma's and Tigra's could get together again.

I very much wanted this event to be special and allow it the maximum exposure to show that the traditional rivalry between Ford and Vauxhall, the Puma and the Tigra, can be put to one side to allow owners to meet, chat, and make new friends.

'Total Vauxhall' magazine are going to give coverage to this event in a future issue.

Meet Concept.

This event will take place in the grounds of the Heritage Motor Centre at Gaydon. We will park up in formation for a number of group photographs, and also allow for the magazine photographer to take 'action' shots of some individual vehicles on the Centre's access roads, etc. Lunch will be available in the museum's restaurant.

Whilst this is taking place, you are welcome to take time to explore the excellent museum that covers every aspect of the history of car production in the UK. The museum houses a selection of very rare vehicles and covers a large number of different manufactures, including Ford and Vauxhall.

You can read more details about the Heritage Motor Centre here:

<a href="http://www.heritage-motor-centre.co.uk" target="_blank">http://www.heritage-motor-centre.co.uk</a>

Entrance into the museum is usually £8, but I have secured a limited number of entrance tickets at a reduced price of £6.

Once the photographic activities at the Heritage Motor Centre have taken place, we will continue on to a local pub for a post-meet drink, before heading home for the day.

The ultimate aim of this event is to create a fun day for the Tigra and Puma owners attending, maybe see your car in print, and spread the word about The Tigra Club and get some new members on board. (and for Pumapeople too of course!! )

I am really looking forward to us all joining with The Tigra Club for this event, for what I am sure will be a fun day, on which we can make many new friends, and enjoy our respective small coupes together.

I received official confirmation from the Heritage Motor Centre today regarding our plans for this event. I'm also pleased to say that I have managed to agree a museum entrance fee for all those attending of £6 per person, rather than the normal £8.

I've also emailed Total Vauxhall magazine with the final details of what's happening. So therefore I should have a further update regarding the coverage we are getting in Total Vauxhall and maybe Fast Ford too, by early next week.

This thread is open for business now, so please post away!

[Sex Kitten]

well done Chris - you have been working hard

it's good to see a big interest from the Tigra club

now anyone up for a night out on the saturday????

[PussCat]

hehehe - get your priorities right, Rach


Chris - great job on getting this sorted - will be watching with interest

[Sex Kitten]

at least i put it at the end not the start!!!!!

i cant think of a better way to break the ice than a meal and a night out with a few drinkies with our new friends!

[Crystalpuma]

Pray that I get a job (I don't mean this in a religious sense, I mean put out some positive vibes - it is the same conceptually!) so I can come!

[angelbabes34]

to chris for the hard work in organising this meet for us

looking forward to this meet and making more new friends

sk a night out and a meal sounds like a grand idea

i'm thinking about staying over the saturday night and the sunday after the meet,anyone else staying over in a travel lodge?

[Neil]

I'm not going to be able to make this one I'm afraid, off away on det again. Sorry!

[LisaDJ]

Definitely interesting, hope I can make it

[R5CPD]

Great! Thank you for the support!

Shame to hear you can't make it Neil. I've added Jacko into the list in your place.

I'l post more updates here as and when I have them.

[Supersonic]

Chris, just to let you know i'll be coming to this even if I don't have the Puma by then, but i'll park my (hopefully) new beast out of the way.
The way it's looking at the moment though is that i'll still have the Puma, wether it'll be on the road is a different story. I'll keep you posted.

Looking forward to this already by the way, will be a good day out!.

[Big Boy Al]

put me and 241 down for this chris.

should be a good meet, the museum is good :-)

[pumapilot]

I'm definatley hopuing to be there Chris +1 too i hope.
Will look at accomodation nearer the time too, not missing out on SK's night out now i'm right.

[Zip It]

I’m a definitely Chris

Cheers for all the hard work you are putting in, it will be a fantastic day for all.

[cubapuma]

Nice work Chris . Pleased to report that the Puma is likely to be sporting 2 windscreen wipers by then (thanks to PussCat not Frauds) and a lovely new set of mats.
Looking forward to meeting new and familiar faces and maybe some partying if I've got any dosh left after Xmas .

[Dogsbody]

Looks like there are going to be a few FRP's there

I will have to wash K9 again Can't have FRP241 showing it up again.

[R5CPD]

Thanks for all the support guys. I'm hoping it should be a great day out!!

As I posted previeously in the last thread, if anyone knows someone with a Tigra, then get tham to come along to this event. What is going to make it such a special day is having as many Puma's and Tigra's along as possible. The bigger the meet, the more the coverage we might get to see in the magazines.

[BOK]

Healthy looking list of cars there

Come on people, don't let the side down and make sure you all turn up!!

[Smoking_Zephyr]

Can I come please????
