Hi Everyone,
Apologies for the delay in informing you of the details for this event but due to the very popular demand the vent sold out so quicly that we could not post the details in time to get to you all. So, we have been watching for the release of more tickets, in the hope we could attend this event on Sunday 7th April but even at this late stage it appears the additional parking area are in jeopardy, due to the unseasonably wet weather the UK and Silverstone in particular, has experienced of late.
Please see screen grab below from the Silvestone Ticket Sales Website explaining that they have suspended ticket sales, for those who do not already have a parking pass 
To avoid cancelling the Sunday Drive altogether, we have had a think and quickly organised a drive through the New Forest to Old Beams, Ibsley for Lunch at 12:30.
For full details, to save any confusion with this Japfest post, we have posted the new Drive to Old Beams Seperately, in the MX5OC Calendar at: Solent Area: ***Change of Drive and venue** - A drive and visit to Old Beams Inn, Ibsley, in The New Forest on Sunday 7th April 2024 - MX-5 Owners Club
Best Regards
The Solent Team

Hi Everyone,
By way of an update, I have just had a Telecon with Simon (Manager) at Old Beams and he is very happy with our booking and has allocated us a seating area for our group, which is fantastic 
Also, We can adjust the numbers up, as required and all I need to do is let him know and he will adjust the seating as necessary - so we are good to go, so keep those responses coming in on this thread and we look forward to seing you on the day

Canât for the life of me get to reply on that link. I press reply, it wants me to download another app or continue in browser - I choose that & nothing!
Whoever designed the MX5 forum should resign, so clunky & un-user friendlyđĄ
Anyway, after my rant, please add Lyn & myself, thanks!
