If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

I bet you never thought it would turn into a bongo meet when you first posted about the tickets.
Sometimes we just take over , innit great.
I am really looking forward to meeting everyone,
and the Renault cars as well.
It can be great fun at the "We'd like to sell you a new car" stand to - when they ask "which model will be your next purchase"? to ask them which of their models best equates to a Bongo?

150bhp and the Quickshift box would be pretty close but I bet the price wouldn't be.
Peugeot Expert Teepee is very similar at about £30,000

Chris got me interested in motor sport, him being an ex rally driver years ago, I guess it had to happen :o) He started taking me to Oulton Park and I really got into the excitement of the racing. We would truly love to go but it is too far given our work commitments.
I hope you all have a fab time and share all your piccy's with us

We we're booked in from friday onwards and she said we could arrive from 9am so I would assume it's the same each day. Don't know what time we will get there though. It's gonna be an interesting 4 hour drive with a bonnet bungeed to the bike rack

They sell chips etc in silverstone, so you should be OK. I am booked for Friday, but having doggysitting problems again, so might not get down until saturday. Gonna sleep in a tent... first time in about 30 years, so should be a laugh
or disaster
See you there John
