3ma 2008
Dates and location, including
accommodation, have now been finalised for 3ma-2008.
Friday
16th to Monday 19th of May 2008 are the dates to mark in your
diaries and head to Scotland for 3ma-2008. Plans are
progressing steadily and while we have not yet finalised our driving
routes we expect to stretch from our chosen base in Inveraray, the
Argyll region's former Royal Burgh in Western Scotland, to the
mountainous Highlands discovering a land of lochs, mountains, history
and much more.
We
look forward to testing cars and drivers on roads like the
Inverfarigaig Corkscrew, the aptly named road built in 1815, which
twists up deep into the wild by the side of Loch Ness and is more
difficult to drive than to say!
We’ll be able to drive the tightest and steepest set of hairpins you
can imagine where most have to do three-point turns while we’ll
probably just use power oversteer!
3ma-2008 will have the same theme as in 2007 which is a lot of driving
fun as well as plenty of time to socialise, meet up with old friends
as well as make new ones.
We have chosen the Loch Fyne Hotel & Spa in Inveraray Scotland for our
accommodation during the 3ma in 2008. A special all inclusive deal has
been negotiated at £65 per night per person inclusive of dinner, bed
and breakfast. 3ma guests staying at the
Loch Fyne Hotel & Spa will
have access to the swimming pool, sauna, steam room and outdoor hot
tub at no extra charge. The hotel's Spa also offers a number of
massage and beauty treatments so attending family members can stay at
the hotel to be pampered and relax while the 131 drivers go driving
around Scotland!
We have reserved several rooms at the
Loch Fyne Hotel & Spa and these
will be held for us until February 2008. But it is important to book
your rooms early so we can reserve more rooms if needed. Alternative
accommodation in the area is very limited so please book early to
avoid disappointment.
We also expect to arrange ferry discounts for our Continental and
Irish friends. Details can be found on the
Trav & Acc
(Travel and Accommodation) section of the website at
www.131mirafiori.com.
We are looking forward to meeting all our friends from the last 3ma
and looking forward to making lots of new 3ma friends at 3ma08.
