The Jaguar Enthusiasts Club is running its annual convoy event this year on 28th May 2017. In previous years the route has been Pease Pottage (M23 Crawley) services to Brighton. However, there's a new route this year taking the convoy from Pease Pottage Services to Denbies wine estate near Dorking (which has a good cafe and restaurant).<br><br>http://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/uk-south-east-annual-convoy-meet-event-28th-may-2017-a-165121/page8/<br><br>A few of us from here went along last year. From memory, I think there was half a dozen F types and a project 7 taking part, in addition to over a hundred other cars from E type's through to an F pace. It's an open invitation to all Jaguar owners again. If you're interested, the organiser is Steve Sheldon email [email protected]. <br><br><br>

'cause it's grim up north!

Notts is hardly down south!!!!

It's gutting living in the "grim" North with our wonderful roads, minimal congestion, awesome scenery.

I hate living in a £300k house here I can easily fund that I couldn't afford down south as it would be seven figures plus to buy.

If it means I miss out on a traffic convoy so be it. I'm guessing the "southerners" sit in traffic convoys most mornings and evenings.

JEC are not even having a Northern Day this year. They are having some big doo on in Windsor and think we can just pop down the road.
 
I'm not driving to Windsor - it's miles away. Gaydon is OK; but it would take 3hs to get to this meet and that's just too far

Just saying. <br /><br />I'm also not suggesting we hold the meet in Liverpool. Again, just saying.
