I can't (won't) risk advising someone where to stay because everyone has different requirements. What I will say is this:- The NEC is not IN! Birmingham, it is on the outskirts connected by a Motorway network which encircles Birmingham. The nearest connection to the NEC is from the M42 but this easily connects to the M6 & M1 to the north and M1 to south of the UK, the M42 also connects to the M40 which goes south to Warwick, Leamington, Stratford upon Avon and Oxford, the M42 also carries on down to the M5 which goes to the southwest of Britain past Bromsgrove where I live (20 miles from the NEC and usually only half anf hour away) and down to Bristol past Worcester Gloucester and Cheltenham. So what I am trying to say is that it is possible to look a little wider than just Birmingham and still not be too far, in journey time, from the NEC. For those of you that don't mind there is an excellent tarin service to the NEC as well. Ron I hope you enjoy your visit, I will be there on Saturday 10th with my wife and son (who has a MK3 Triumph Spitfire and no amount of BEATING! will change his mind). Perhaps we might see you there. Best wishes to all. Roger Muir (Bromsgrove UK)
