| | Welcome
to the web site for the South Eastern Section of the Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts'
Club. We think this is probably the best section you could join, it is certainly
the busiest but to take part in what we have to offer you must join the RREC first!
The committee and I would like to extend a warm invitation to you to join
us at any event in 2010 whether a member of the South Eastern Section or not.
In fact you would be welcome just as an interested enthusiast of all things Rolls-Royce
or Bentley who enjoys talking about motorcars! But beware - we will try to talk
you into joining the RREC post haste, as we believe that it is the best one make
car club and the only club to serve your needs as a Rolls-Royce and Bentley enthusiasts,
owner or yet to be an owner of one of these fantastic motorcars. Our
members have an infectious interest in all things automotive and meet at some
of the most interesting and most beautiful venues in the South East of England,
castles, historic homes, gardens, aerodromes, vineyards and museums, they have
all featured in past programmes and most will do so again in 2010. I
am Stephen Fabman-Beker, Secretary of the Section and Editor of our magazine aided
and assisted by nine other committee members. They are all incorrigible motoring
enthusiasts who would be pleased to meet you, discuss the club and our section
within it or just pass the time of day. Our members drive a diverse range
of motorcars from Ghosts to 20hp to 25/30's to 1950's Continentals, 1960' Clouds,
1970's Shadows, 1980's Mulsanne's and Spirits to 1990's Bentley Continental T's
and Turbo R's and Arnages , Silver Spurs, Seraphs and the current Goodwood Phantom.
Our Prize Giving in July 2008 had a very fine line-up of 130 cars and over 300
people, we welcome everyone, car or no car, section member or 'about to join'
enthusiast to come and experience what being a member of the R-REC is like. Who
knows, you may like what you see and join the club, join the section and make
those predictable weekends a thing of the past. If you would like to receive a
complimentary South Eastern Section magazine please contact me and one will be
sent by return. Members
pay a donation towards its production and their input and written contributions
are always welcome. We publish the best section magazine in the club, probably,
well I have to say that don't I? It supplies information about the numerous events
held throughout the year. Events range from a light hearted Concours & Section
Prize Giving to Wings Wheels & Steam at Groombridge, Garden and Castle visits,
cream teas and picnics as well as winter lunches. We have a foreign tour to Southern
Brittany staying in Quimper and will help run the South of England Rally at Cranleigh
School with other Sections where upwards of 500 cars attend. South Eastern
Section members are a great mix of friendly people who show their satisfaction
by turning up in force to almost every event. 45 cars and 150 people are not unusual
attendance numbers and past Prize Giving events have seen 130 cars and 350 people.
What ever section you belong to you would be most welcome to join us
and if you are thinking about buying your first Rolls-Royce or Bentley please
come and discuss your thoughts and question with our members - they are always
willing to pass on knowledge and advise new owners. Once you have bought your
club car you will need to entrust its well-being to a trusted garage, we can help
you there too as our section has some of the best Rolls-Royce specialists in the
country. The committee and I look forward to seeing you in 2010. Stephen
Fabman-Beker Secretary
of the RREC South Eastern Section
