Silverstone Classic – Friday 25th to Sunday 27th July 2008.
SeMantics will again be having a display area in the centre of the circuit at the wonderful Silverstone Classic, and we hope that you will join us and put your Citroen SM in our display. If you have not attended this event it is a great weekend of classic cars and motor racing using vehicles from the last 70 years. Even if you are not interested in motor racing you could just spend a whole day just wandering around the display areas, pits and traders without ever watching a single race, although this is usually exciting. If you prefer driving your car you could join in the fun by taking part in the Retrorun which takes place on the Saturday starting from four different locations and finishing at Silverstone where you could join our display.
For more information about this great weekend motoring event and the Retrorun please look at the Silverstone Classic web site www.silverstoneclassic.com where you can see all the details.
If you would like to join us you need to book your tickets directly with Silverstone Circuits by ringing them on 0871 703 38 48 quote our specific code *****,available from me, which will allow you to buy tickets at a special reduced rate as below:
- Friday 25th July – £20-00
- Saturday 26th July £25-00
- Sunday 27th July £25-00
- Three day weekend pass £ 45-00
By using the code above you will receive two tickets for the price of one, plus your car pass which will allow you into the circuit to our display area ( without this pass you will have to park outside the circuit and walk in). To get these special prices you must book your tickets before the 30th June 2008.
If enough Citroen SM owners are interested I will arrange meals together on the Friday and Saturday evening but as hotels and restaurants in the area get busy over this weekend you need to let me know you are coming as soon as possible, and which nights you would like a meal.
Although there is accommodation of various types on the Silverstone Classic web site I have also added a few extra hotels which you may find useful.
Once you have booked your tickets please let me know what days you are coming so that I can make sure that the cars are parked in a way that everyone can accommodate everyone.
Hope to see you there,
Brian Cass,
SeMantics Chairman
