Places

Upcoming Jensen & British Car events for 2010
Events highlighted in red are being organized by fellow Jensen owners


Ongoing- Every Saturday, rain or shine. Cars & Coffee in Irvine, California at 7905 Gateway Blvd., Irvine, CA 92618. Irvine campus of the Premiere Auto Group/Ford's Advanced Design Group. The official time is 07:00am to 09:00am. Some folks start wandering out before 09:00 but most start bailing after, with stragglers sticking around for quite some time. If you want to display your car go to the second driveway on the right (follow all the cool cars). If you just want to check out the cars as a spectator and don't want to display, pull into the first driveway on the right and park behind (or in) the structure (parking way in the back gives you a shorter walk to the showing area) or across the street in the big parking lot on the left. http://roguecarshow.com/
