UPDATE -SmartFest 2011 - Convoy Rendezvous Point
« on: September 01, 2011, 10:35:11 AM »

OK everyone,
Here is the map of where/how to get to the rendezvous for the Smart Festival convoy.

The post code to put into your SatNav to get you to the Tesco/M&S area is KT13 0XF.
 
Note well....The route from Junction 11 can be a nightmare and is not that pleasant.
So...exit the M25 at Junction 10 whether you are going clockwise or anticlockwise as
this is the easiest and the best way to get to MBWorld ....and...to the rendezvous
point. The car park that is close to Tesco's / M&S.

At Junction 10, take the A3 Northbound to the A245. Exit down the slip road to the
roundabout, and take the left exit down the A245. Proceed down the A245 for a while.
At the Brooklands Road roundabout, go straight ahead, but at the next roundabout
take a right turn into Sopwith Drive. A short way in and you will come to another small
roundabout....

Left will take you down Oyster Lane to the entrance to Tesco and M&S.
Ahead will take you to another roundabout, where MB World is straight ahead.
TURN RIGHT...(to where the tip of the big red dart is pointing) and that will take you
into a secluded car park where there are some swings n stuff (behind barriers & fence).
Please drive slowly and carefully, watch out for kids, parents, and even animals.

You will have reached the rendezvous point. 
Hopefully you'll see my car and whoever else is already there...waiting.

NB: If you do need to go to Tesco's or M&S for anything, go there first. When you leave
      turn left, down to the roundabout and go across it and into 'the meeting place'.  OK ?



The meet up time and the start of the convoy is crucial.
MB opens at 8am ! !....and there is usually a queue to get in even then !
The actual 'event' is scheduled to start at 11am. Times as per latest e-mail from Smart.
A convoy start time of 10am into MB will encounter a rapidly growing queue of Smarts.
So....my suggestion is.... 09:00 - 09:15am 'start to meet up in car park'.
Start of the ForFour convoy into MB to be at 09:40am.

PM me if you need any further info. Thx

G

I more or less copied the entire post into a new Topic on FFO....
BUT.....
I do not have 'permission' to add any image...so they didnt get the map !
Obviously my 'access' is still restricted...? !
