May 23rd and 24th
The organising committee invite owners of all classic Rover cars and Land Rover vehicles to take part in the annual Scottish All Rover Rally.
The event will this year be based at Thirlestane Castle, near Lauder, over the Spring Bank Holiday weekend of Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th May 2009.
Now in its fifteenth year, our unique event offers:
Scotland’s premier event for all Rover car and Land Rover enthusiasts.
Special guests: The Wolseley Register.
Optional road tour on Saturday.
Camping and caravan space available on adjacent site.
Saturday evening social event for entrants.
Free access to Thirlestane Castle grounds for 2 persons. (Pre booked entrants only).
Discounted entry to Castle. (Open Sunday only)
Trophy awards for all classes, oldest vehicle entered etc.
Commemorative rally memento, guaranteed first 100 bookings only.
To start the event, we will be organising a road tour of the Borders region on Saturday 23rd May. The format will allow entrants to visit a number of attractions at their own pace, with opportunities to take refreshments and explore the countryside. Tour distance is expected to be around 90 miles, and is planned so you can enjoy the uncongested open roads of Berwickshire and its varied scenery.
We will be hosting an informal social gathering for entrants on Saturday evening at Thirlestane Castle. A buffet supper will be followed by a fun quiz. This part of the rally was oversubscribed last year; the venue has restricted seating so only the first 50 bookings can be accepted. Reservations must be made using the attached booking form. Your ticket includes a welcome drink and wine or soft drinks with your meal.
On Sunday 24th we host our usual static event, with self judged concours and Championship judging. Enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of our event and renew old friendships, maybe even make some new ones! Explore the Castle and its grounds and walks, sample the tea room and gift shop.
