The Smart Festival Saturday 10th September 2011 (date confirmed)

[mr singh]

just looking for a hotel near MB world, which hotel would you guys recommend and what hotel are most of you staying at?

[LadyV]

Fox and I are staying with my Dad who lives nearby in South London. We have stayed at the Brooklands Hotel which was amazing but very expensive. We were thinking of stating at the Hilton in Cobham this time (I get free hotel stays at Hiltons) but it's now full :-( I suspect a lot if them will be quite busy on the day as it's a Saturday and a major event but google "Weybridge hotels" and I'm sure you'll find something.

I'm staying at the Best Western: The Ship Hotel.
It's only 10 mins drive away and is really nice, we stayed there last year too!

I'm staying in central London, Friday morning I'm having a service at S2 smarts followed by the rest of the day at the natural history museum then off for a meal and to see thriller live.

Up early to get to the meeting point.

Grrr we haven'g got our packs either! I signed up months ago...like a lot of you. Just re-applied and fingers crossed we'll have better luck this time.

Just phoned them up as I don't have my pack.

Lady on phone told me they are being sent this week, seems odd as people already have theirs.

Just a thought....
Premier Inn are doing a lot of advertising on the TV for "rooms from £29"...
so maybe they're worth a look to see if they have any places around or within close
driving distance. A short drive can save an bomb compared to a closer expensive hotel.

My Dad has a double room or a single room. (we are starting from Croydon- we will pop in and say "hi" to some local Smart owners that we know before heading off a little earlier as usual). The drive from my Dad's to MB World is about 15 miles.

Please let me know if you would like a room on the Friday night. Please bare in mind that I won't be back from work on Friday til about 21:00 but Fox will be in.

It's an idea for those who are driving long distances already....PM me if you're interested.

I've received my smart pack through the post today!
It didn't say which model it was for but I'm assuming that it was for my Brabus as I registered for that a week ago today...

First impression of the packs are: they aren't as full as the previous years, only containing a letter, a big bumper sticker and the window sticker. Last years had an activity map and event plan included I think... So maybe they are saving paper dunno lol.
Hope everyone gets there's soon!

I'm staying at the Travel lodge in feltham. Was cheaper than most others and cost 19 a night. Due to change of working pattern though I now need the 2nd night. The price is now at £40. Ph, and we found out there is no parking apart from the multistorey next dor which is a tenner for 24hrs.

[Problemchild]

if i make it to the event.... does anyone fancy a full set of BRAB alloys??

curbed but otherwised in quite good condition.

i could bring them along.....

booked the same hotel, dont mind paying for the parking! only thing is i payed £79, that might be because i booked a double room.

If you do make it...bring them anyway...someone just might make you an offer and
save you taking them home.

[Problemchild]

well i will also split to offer the rears to replace the narrow fronts and keep the fronts should someone dent them!

anyway, i'm trying to sort out how to get there!!
