Pistonheads Sunday Service, Mercedes Benz World - 28/10/12

Where has the year gone? It seems like only yesterday we were looking forward to summer Sunday Services and now we’re bringing you details of the penultimate PistonHeads Sunday Service of 2012, BTaP meaning no Sunday Service in November.
Sunday October 28 sees a return to Mercedes-Benz World at Brooklands where 600 PH cars will line up on our usual position on the ‘Dynamic Straight’.

The usual Sunday Service mix of hot breakfasts, PHers' cars and lots of things to see from the host manufacturer will be on offer with the added benefit of AMG passenger rides for Sunday Service folk at just £10, These will be bookable on the day on a first come, first served basis.


Never been to a Sunday Service before? It’s an easy-going format of arrive, park (no heroics please) and admire other PHers' cars. When you’re ready, breakfast will be available inside the Mercedes-Benz World building. Gates open at 09.00 and we’ll close the Sunday Service element at 13.00, but as the centre is open all day you can stay for as long as you like.
As usual you will need to ensure you add your name to the calendar to ensure entry on the day.

Those with a number between 1-600 next to their name will be on our list and will be waved through to park. If you are outside ‘the 600’ you will be added to the reserve list, but as people drop out your name will automatically move up the list.

Sunday Service lists change dramatically as the event draws closer so please keep checking right up to the eve of the event as you may find you have gained a space. If you sign up and later find you can no longer attend, please do the decent thing and remove yourself from the list enabling another PHer to take your place on the day.

Thanks to Mercedes-Benz for allowing us to return once again.
600 spaces and they tend to all go pretty fast so thought I should post it up. I'll be going, not sure whether it will be the scoob or the elise (weather permitting) but should be another great show at MBW.

Thanks for the heads up Andy, will get my name down :)

Steve_PPP 04-10-2012 01:05 PM
Thanks for posting this Andy :doubleup: I've moved it to 'Other Events' as its not an SES run event, but stickied it too. Last year we had quite a few people for this.

I've added myself to the list :)

Hongkongfooi 04-10-2012 02:52 PM
added my name just below Mortster:doubleup:

Mortster 04-10-2012 02:52 PM
Added myself too, as its 19 miles away :nod:

Steve_PPP 04-10-2012 03:13 PM
Nice one guys :)

Just a heads up for anyone thinking about going, get yourself on the Pistonheads list as its filling up fast. 600 allowed and 150 have been added in the last few hours....

ajf 04-10-2012 03:44 PM
Got my name down hope to have the replacement with any luck

Anger 04-10-2012 04:24 PM
On the list now :)

ScoobyStu 04-10-2012 06:14 PM
A bloke at work was telling me about this place this morning at work and I thought it would be a good place for a day out, either with the forum on by yourself. Never heard of it before. What are the odds?! I'll check my work schedule and if I'm off, I'm in!

simba 04-10-2012 06:15 PM
i have put my name on the list going to try and get the RS for the day

BIG"E" 04-10-2012 06:40 PM
For those that have not been,

scotty 04-10-2012 07:28 PM
On the list looking forward to this

belliott 04-10-2012 08:13 PM
On the list even though my cars not the greatest as its always a really good day.

Steve_PPP 05-10-2012 04:05 PM
Right, so i think this is the current SES attendees:

1. AndySpecD
2. Anger
3. Steve_PPP
4. HongkongFooi
5. Mortster
6. Simba
7. Scotty
8. Belliott

Anyone else get in before it filled up? If not, try the reserve list anyway, a lot of people usually drop out in the final few days beforehand :)

Last time we all met up at Cobham Sainsburys before convoying over, expect we might do the same again as its only a few miles away.

Hi Rich,

If you're not already on the PH list, you might not get in now (unless a load of people drop out). Its already full with a long reserve list.... but worth a try if you want to come along.

Does anyone know how strict they are with people arriving who aren't on the list? I know they check names on the entrance, but don't know what they do if you aren't on there - base it on time of day and amount of space?

I asked this question on the PH forum for a prior event and if it's full and you're not on the list you will be turned away. Nothing to stop you parking at Brookland and walking over though...

Hongkongfooi 22-10-2012 05:00 PM
It's a 9am event....meet at pease Pottage around 8am?

Claire_PPP 24-10-2012 05:29 PM
Someone at work has just reminded me that the clocks go back on Saturday night/Sunday morning, so keep that in mind when you start planning meeting times or someone might end up sat in a carpark on their own for an hour!:tumbleweed:

simba 24-10-2012 06:03 PM
well done mrs ppp

scotty 24-10-2012 06:58 PM
Where is everyone meeting if we are going up in convoy and if 40 more people drop before Saturday juppy will be on the 600 list I hope and prey this can happen for our fellow member

Hongkongfooi 24-10-2012 08:33 PM
There is a sainsburys car park just round the corner from the site where we normally meet scotty, I'm guessing 830 onwards

Steve_PPP 24-10-2012 10:34 PM
Yeah, we can meet up beforehand at Sainsburys in Cobham if people want to? Its about 3 miles from MBW.

http://maps.google.co.uk/?ll=51.3346...6001,-0.419712

scotty 24-10-2012 11:59 PM

Anger 25-10-2012 03:22 PM

Yeah, they sent an email out to everyone on Tuesday as a reminder to remove entries if people can't make it anymore. I'd say Juppy will be in easily with a couple of days still to go.

Say 8:30-8:45am at Sainsburys, aim to leave by 8:50, something like that.
