In 1986 the first annual convention was held at Bruntingthorpe in Leicestershire. A venue since used by various other clubs after the Peugeot GTI club paved the way. The annual convention continued to be financed by Peugeot until 1995, which enabled the club to hire Silverstone for a number of years. Having to be self-financing was proving to be challenging, and less expensive venues had to be found. The motor industry proving ground, near Nuneaton turned out to be a great venue from 1998 through to 2000, but restrictions on this venues usage meant another venue had to be found. 'Pugfest 01' was subsequently held as a static event in 2001, but then with track days ever more popular, and the availability of circuits getting more and more expensive, as well as hard to find, the committee struck upon the idea of a hill climb.
In 2002 the famous Prescott Hill in Gloucestershire was booked, where the convention has been held ever since. Since 2001 the convention has been called 'Pugfest' and has attracted thousands of visitors. 'Pugfest 2010' saw the club celebrating its 25 years of Peugeot enthusiasm! Why not join us at the next one? All Peugeot owners are welcome to the event. | ||
