Well done! I was invited to Goodwood Revival last year by Rolls Royce, as part of their Wraith promotion. Invite rescinded after I'd accepted by return, due to demand outstripping supply. Understanding, but why send a personal invite which can't be fulfilled? I haven't bought one, but honestly I can't say it was on the strength of the snub ;)

Nice one ! Hear you there......
So, I had a call and email from HR Owen today, apologising profusely. They agreed with my view that you cannot simply send an email rescinding an invitation, especially to customers of very expensive cars! To those who are going - I will see you there!

Very apologetic Mr Langfield on the phone just now, if I'm in the country I'm more than welcome to join the party!
: )

Says he's had a busy couple of days dealing with the fallout.

They should get this right first time, trying to recover from a total screw up costs them a load more than they think..!!

Glad to hear everyone who wants to come can.

Also, what an incredible event HR Owen are putting on. It is better than anything Maserati have done. Imagine if we were all invited to an event like this, completely free in Modena? That would put some smiles on faces.

So many thanks to HR Owen for putting on what I imagine will be an incredible event.

looking forward to it, lets prey for some good weather! I've flown over that estate a few times when I started my PPL, then work got in the way again.

I'm sure that would be the case especially with the kids in tow and get them to cry if it all goes pear shaped :)

Car washed and vacumed...almost forgot I had one as its been sat on its own for three weeks gathering dust.

Be good to get it out in some sun...so aware that the show cars get there 10-11...I take it our chariots will be directed to the normal car park?
