Leave the M6 at junction 40, head west on A66 (Keswick) and Rheghed is on the first roundabout you come to, less than a mile from the motorway. Go past the Little Chef, that's not it

Thanks, Smoggie.
If I don't meet you all just after the Sheep/Wool centre roundabout, I'll be at the main entrance to Dovenby Hall aka M-Sport HQ.

Re: M-sport Update . . .
Spoken to Julia at M-Sport this morning , cameras are fine but there are some areas where you are not allowed to take photos but the tour guide will advise us of where we can & cant take pics .

Mr Wilson is in residence , and i have asked if he would be available for some photos , cant promise anything as he has been involved with a charity function for the late Richard Burns over in Carlisle but i have asked so fingers crossed .

Anyway , signing off now to get a spot of dinner before i set off for Scotch Corner , See you all soon , drive carefully

Re: M-sport Update . . .
I just got back today.

Had a great time at Msport, many thanks to Martin for organising it. I know how much work you put into planning and chasing people up etc!

I'll stick my pics up soon, although they're similar to those above.

Re: M-sport Update . . .
There are three prodrive centres:

Prodrive
Banbury
Oxfordshire
OX16 3ER
United Kingdom

Prodrive
Kenilworth
Warwickshire
CV8 1NR
United Kingdom

Prodrive
Precedent Drive
Milton Keynes
MK13 8PE
United Kingdom


I think the first one is the main centre.
