Default Milton Keynes Cruise

Hi Midlanders Just wondering if (m)any people from ScoobyNet tend to go to the MK cruise on Sunday nights? I haven't been in a looong time, but when I pick the STI up I'd like to start going and seeing old faces/meeting new people again!

Have driven through it once or twice but was put off by the amount of Corsa's/Saxo's there. There was another one at Westcroft which was mostly made up of Subaru's and other Jap cars, it was much better. Not sure if its still going tho.

Yes, McD & KFC are the other side, I drove in via the front entrance near Doubletree by Hilton hotel and then clockwise around the stadium, although much better is to enter via the other road on which McD's and KFC sit.

Park up surrounded by chavs and get your car given a full check over by the cops, sounds like a great night out

No probs at the football stadium, it's the BABS lot who attend this not the Corsa's and Nova brigade.

I am a regular at the Mini Meets at the MK Dons stadium, yes it's from 7.30pm till 10 ish, dependant on who turns up, consists of the opportunity to have a look at the cars, discuss ideas for your cars, then we usually sit in McDonalds all together, cuppa tea/food, usually have a riot!

Everyone welcome, you don't need to bring your scoob,

The MK Cruise started and still is a dangerous place to be, there was a big accident where 4 cars were wrote off by a un-insured driver being a complete idiot, you go at your own risk. hence why we moved the Subaru mini meets, MK Dons stadium is a nice quiet location, usually get a couple of chavs do drive through, but we don't have any problems with police as once the cars are parked they don't move, we don't cause any hassle at all.....

pop along, we have a great set of regulars that attend, you'll enjoy it..........

Some people are never happy! Always happy to have my car checked out - nothing to hide! Think you'll find the police there are generally alright and are happy to natter about the cars with people so long as you're not acting an ****.. It's a good laugh with some nice people and has been cool every time I've been.

Not sure of the difference between 'MK Cruise' and going to the Dons stadium though... I generally just go to the stadium and park up, walk around etc..

We all now meet at the MK Dons football stadium at Milton Keynes every Sunday night for 7pm. We dont have any trouble what so ever with the police as know we are nothing to do with the chavs and there sheds.

Feel free to pop along on a sunday night, its a good laugh.
