Ashby Folville lies between Melton Mowbray and Leicester.
A meet is hosted on the second Tuesday evening of the month from April to September, which is held on the
cricket field with additional parking in the next field, as it gets rammed.
It is open to anyone, as well as cars there are plenty of motor bikes and scooters.Cost is Â£2 to enter.
There's hot foods and drinks available with a pub over the road.
It's not all classic cars, a great night, here's some pics from lastTues.

This was the only other Rover there !

That was an Ultima

Regards

Go back to the top and read what Jon actually wrote.

The red 800 is Jon's the only other Rover there.

Would you believe, being rare, Rover got more attention than the Roller !

So we may be on to an even better thing.

Been to 4 meets here and only ever seen 2 Rovers on a night. Need some back up

It's a good meet though and is only about 15mins away for me.

Second Tues of June, that would be the 9th.

Need to get in for 5pm to get a good spot on the Cricket field,as it's usually full at 6, but still plenty of parking across the road.
Good if you went.

I'm going to be at Bromley the following weekend so that might be tight for being honest.

The Skoda compliments the V Dubs, it was there last year.

Here's a couple more pics of something along a similar theme from 2009.

I think thats the gear stick...sticking through the sun roof !

I believe it's an SM, that one is an M reg 74 ish which would be about right as these came out in the early 70's. They had a Maserati V6 up front, oh and swivelling headlamps !
