Invites you to the first international BORGWARD GOLIATH HANSA LLOYD meeting 9th 10th MAY 2015
Dear Borgward Friends,
Brooklands was the the world’s first purpose-built motor racing circuit, constructed at Weybridge, Surrey in 1907 - was more than a great sporting arena. Brooklands was the birthplace of British motorsport and aviation, home of Concorde and the site of many engineering and technological achievements throughout eight decades of the 20th century. Situated 35kms South West of london it is in an ideal place close to many interesting places including Windsor Castle ~(23kms), Painshill (3kms), Loseley Park (15 kms), and of course London itself. On Saturday Afternoon we will drive to a nearby beauty spot Newlands Corner before a group dinner. Why not stay a few more days and enjoy the local area before or after the meeting The Borgward Drivers club is here to help. John Wallis Chairman, Borgward Drivers Club
