Looking for things to do on holiday in July / August

Post by Althejazzman »

Hi fellow Porsche lovers. I will be visiting your wonderful part of the country this summer, sadly not in a Porsche as I need my van for camping in. However I don't want to make the trip entirely without seeing a Porsche.

I will be visiting Edinburgh and Perth, then heading for the west coast via Stirling. I may even make it as far as Oban and Mallaig.

So can anyone point me in the direction of any car shows, friendly club social events, go-karting, country drives etc ?

Thanks Alan. I should be able to get to at least one of those.

If anyone else is doing something less formal, i.e. pub meet, drive out, please feel free to add to the list.
