Booked!

Not that I'll be in the Beta but I'll bring something Italian.

I might come but it won't be in a Beta if I do as it is still a long way from finished. Quite a few Lancisti don't use FB so I presume updates will be on here too?

The date is in my diary but the Spyder only has half the car currently painted so not the Beta. However a run in the Monte should work.

Cheers

Hi all and thank you for your long awaited patience in your excitement for this years Beta Meet.

Beta Meet 19 has been organised this year very kindly by James Costello.  ;D

Our starting point will be from the Ambiance Café in the Riverside Car Park in the centre of beautiful St. Neots. PE19 7HD,
meeting up for breakfast or that much needed coffee at 9am.
We will then be leaving at 10.15 for a short drive to visit Autosportivo Ltd a friendly Italian car specialist for more much needed tea and coffee!
Following on from this will be another drive through the stunning surrounding countryside to our lunch destination where our lovely Andy Collins
will be talking about our much beloved Betas.
After lunch we will have a free afternoon along with a driving route and open options of several widely ranging places to visit before we meet back
for a delicious BBQ from 5pm. (Please would you kindly let me know if you would like to attend the BBQ by Saturday June 29th at the latest.)

All itinerary including nearby hotels is attached but if you would like me to forward a copy to you please email me at: elmtreehomes@hotmail.co.uk or text me on 07765523656 and
I'll message it across. The only detail missing is the nearest campsite which is St. Neots Camping and Caravanning Club Site, Hardwick Road, Eynesbury, Cambridgeshire, PE19 2PR
which offers all facilities.

As always our events are open to all Lancia owners, we are not exclusively just for Beta owners, (We do like a chat with any fellow Lancia lovers,)
and even if yours is not likely to be on the road at the time of the meet there is usually a bit of room in someone's car for a ride along!

As always the meet is completely free as is the advice given here by all you very knowledgeable lot along with the time and cost taken to operate this forum by the lovely Tony Harrison
so if I may gently poke you (With a very small stick!) and remind everyone that this site is run solely on donations and therefore if you could possible manage even a little bit it
would be hugely appreciated.  ;D

Really hope to see lots of you there. If you haven't visited the area before, it really is stunning and I can highly recommend it!

All the best
Amanda Dodge

I can vouch for the area too. Also the quality of the tea at Auto Sportivo....

The Shuttleworth Collection would be my choice as I've not been there despite it being pretty much on my doorstep.

If I turn up in a non-beta non- Lancia am I allowed to drive that on the run?

It’s in the diary.  My Beta won’t be ready though...  so I could be travelling down in the Panda!
(But don’t worry, I’ll leave it somewhere out of sight!)

Well that’s going to slow the Panda down!  But yes, of course I will.

If I lived in a town I'd probably be on my 3rd Panda 100 by now!
