"Just a few brief details, the Norwich Classic Vehicle Club are holding their Fifth annual classic vehicle show on Sunday June 4th. This event has always attracted a huge following, over 200 vehicles attending last year. Spaces can be reserved for a Club stand, there's a fully licensed bar on site, food, car boot sale and autojumble stalls.

Located at Norwich Rugby Club just off the B1150 North Walsham Road, north of the city. I'll be taking my 1975 3500 auto along for it's first time, would be nice if we had a few more P6's there and maybe make up a club stand.

 more details from me on 01379 740760."

Rover Owners Club Of Holland weekend.

"Dear Rover friends, this is an invitation to the 7th lustrum of the ROCH on 17th and 18th June 2006. This festive meeting takes place around Vledder, a village in the idyllic area where SW Drente and NW Overijssel meet, just south of the Frisian border.

Programme:

On Saturday morning we meet in the minuscule hamlet of Muggenbeet ("Midge's bite..!")

at the inn called Geertien, where coffee and homemade cake awaits us. A beautiful route through the "Drents - Frisian Wood" will take us to Vledder for an informal lunch.

With special permission our concours d'élégance takes place on the historic village green (Brink) ,opposite Hotel Brinkzicht, which is also the venue for that evening's dinner - dance. A fine swing - band and a salsa - dancing demonstration will heighten the spirits.

On Sunday morning, after coffee and pastries, we depart for Havelte, through a landscape called the "pearl of Drente ". Our traditional cultural programme features both Peter van Pagee, who is -in Holland- a well-known storyteller and a 25 - person's choir.

A final tour will take us to Giethoorn, aptly called the "Venice of the North". Lunch will be served in the restaurant "Holland's Venetie".The afternoon offers options for a boat tour, walks along the narrow canals, arrow shooting,"hole in one", etc.

The lustrum will end around 17.00 hrs.

The Rover P6 Club National Rally 2006 will be held at the annual Vintage and Classic Day at Turweston Airfield on Sunday 17th September 2006.

We have selected this large event as it in a good central location, hopefully to bring in as many of our expanding membership as we possibly can. The location is an airfield is situated 2.5 miles east of Brackley, Northamptonshire, near to Silverstone and can be accessed from the A43 just north of the first Brackley exit and is clearly signposted to Turweston Airfield and Whitfield village.

ENTRY FORM HERE

There is easy access from both the M1 & the M40 motorways..

We will be running various competitions and there will be trophies for the furthest travelled to the event and Members Favourite P6. There is also a trophy for ‘the best everyday’ P6 at the rally. There is also a vehicle parade at 1300hrs, organised by the VAC. This event draws vintage & classic cars, coaches, commercials, bikes, military vehicles and if weather permit’s a good selection of aircraft so it is well worth a visit. The gates are open from 0930 hrs and entry is £5.00 per car payable to RP6C in advance. Please return your completed entry form to the Club Address, marked for The National Rally and remember to enclose an SAE.

Our National Rally will be part of an gathering of owners and enthusiasts for all things mechanical and will include vintage and classic motor cycles, cars, military vehicles, tractors, commercial vehicles and if the weather permits a good selection of aircraft.

The gates open about 09:30 with a parade of vehicles around 13:00.

Last year was a special event as there was the final public display of the Vickers Vimy (this was the aircraft that has reinacted the three main long distance flights London-Australia, London-Cape Town and in 2005 the Trans Atlantic flight). So hopefully there will be able to have a good selection of aircraft, cars, motorbikes, commercial and military vehicles for everyones enjoyment.

To view pictures from past events at this site please check the web site at www.vintageaircraftclub.org.uk also where they will be updating information for the event, so if there are any changes they will be posted on this site.
