I'm hearing the date of the Alpine Spares Day has been moved back to Saturday 7th May. Anyone heard this or why it's been changed?

Martin

Traditional day in the year for an auto-jumble dedicated to the Alpine and so the Tiger as well. Good time to sniff out needed parts and spares; maybe 'bring & sell' too. Commercial vendors will there along with a dozen or so 'Tiger' privateers!

Memorial Park - Coventry....starts early and is done by late morning.

That sounds like fun.
I can't think of anything that I need that I would be likely to find, but I can't resist rooting about in auto jumbles.

Is there a Tiger meet organised to coincide?

It will be held on May 8th not 7th. Somebody had a typo there ...

A pleasure having met some of you guys down there. It was real fun and hope to see more Tiger/(Alpine) owners next year. The german/swiss croud will definitely be there again...

Tony. yes we arrived at home well @ 3 AM in the morning. A long trip but worth every single minute. Looking forward to see you here. Solitude is waiting...

To Martin :
you missed a great event with lots of real Sunbeam afficionados . Even some guys were Sweden were there but we missed the US guys this year. Perhaps the Dollar is to weak :wink:
