Hi all, just a little reminder, currently already 55 (!) Copens from 5 countries (including 1 Copen from the UK) registered. I know the date clashes with the Japfest 2013 in the UK, but would love to meet some more Copen-drivers and their Copens from abroad. Andreas
hi scotty just a small question, do know if the hotel excepts dogs? (chiahua) if not is there a hotel close by that does? we would like to bring the dog as she goes pretty much every where with us. many thanks princess.
Hi princess, very happy to hear that you are interested to come. Unfortunately the hotel itself does not accept pets. But let me check for hotels near by. I'll come back to you soon. Andreas
Hi princess, here are three alternatives (hope one is to your liking) close by: Guesthouse William Wallace Hotel zur Post Hotel Altenberger Hof (additional charge for dogs 10.00 EUR per day) All of them accept dogs. I also asked for places to stay with a dog at forum.micro-roadster.de so there might come up some more choices. Andreas
hi scotty Thanks for getting back to me so soon i"ll have a look at these other hotels and get back to you. many thanks princess
Hi all, according to the information of the hotel currently still only one single and two double rooms are available. So anyone intending to take part please make your reservation as soon as possible. If you like to take on other accomodation nearby please let me know if I can be of any help. Currently 82 Copens from 5 countries (only 1 from the UK) are registered, so maybe you also would like to be part of the biggest Copen meeting in Europe? Andreas

Hi princess, thanks a lot for letting me know and sorry to hear that you won't be able to come. Looking forward to meet in September then. Andreas
Hi all, the course of events and the tour desscriptions for Saturday are now published. I added the link to the initial post (click me). Currently 83 Copens from 5 countries are registered. According to the hotel now only 2 single rooms are still available. Andreas
Hi all, from later on today on for the whole weekend you can follow my current position to at least have a little virtual impression of the meeting. Just follow that link: Scooty's position Please keep your fingers crossed for us for nice weather. 85 Copens from 5 countries (Belgium, France, Netherlands, UK, Germany) are expected. Andreas
Hi all, Photo (c) by "Der Solinger@micro-roadster.de" It was a very nice weekend with lots of Copens, weather a bit mixed, but most of the time we were able to drive the routes on Saturday with open roof. The routes were very nice and I met a lot new but also known Copenists. All together there were 80 Copens attending during the weekend, some of them just for a day, the picture above only shows the ones attending on Sunday morning. In this thread at forum.micro-roadster.de (click me) you find some more pictures (you have to register to see all the pictures) and links to some online galleries. Again a big thanks to Stram from Liverpool!! Happy Copening, Andreas PS: Next years Copen Meeting will take place in June 2014 in the south-east region of Germany called Oberfranken (click me).
A few none standard colours in that picture, nice. That lot must have been some sight following each other down the roads. I'm surprised you got that many cars together outside of Japan, well done.
