Don't stand on the corner of the road if you do, you might be mistaken for a traffic light :lol: :lol:
Or maybe wearing an orange suit in Northern Ireland has an alternative connotation? ;)

Ha, an orange sash would be the thing. To see Carl’s (Dealer Principal) face if that happpened would be priceless, 911R priceless 😂😂

Any NI forum peeps should hover around the coffee bar, they will have some nice wheels rolled in - the bar has been set after opening ceremony \ cayenne launch. Looking forward to it!

Ha ha! No, it's a football thing. Mother was Dutch so when they are playing I go to the pub in my orange suit. Hasn't been out for a few years, though...

Agreed. They usually last a couple of hours or so. A pleasant way to spend an evening and not at all stuffy, in my experience. :)

Leicester have stated 6.30pm start, 7pm presentation and 9pm close

Normally very busy, plenty of drinks and nibbles and as already said, a pleasant evening. Plan to arrive about 7.30 to miss the crowds and presentation and have a decent poke around the cars

Just had an invitation from Wolverhampton for the evening of 25 March. The last event I went to there was very good so I'll definitely attend, possibly in my new Duster if it arrives in time :D
