Virgin has returned to offering the Weekend First Upgrade for the Birmingham to London Pendolinos for £10 each way - though interestingly the web site page http://bit.ly/hMOfKa hasn't been updated to show this.
These upgrades are available either in Advance or on board. However, if you are booking a specific train in Advance, you should find it cheaper to book a straight forward First Class Advance ticket: looking ahead to next Sunday for instance, prices started at £22 compared to the off-peak single upgraded price of £53.30
Don't forget that if you hold a Standard Anytime Ticket, the Upgrade is free upon application to the Train Manager. Such a pity that Virgin hides this in the small print AND continues to offer a First Anytime Ticket on the Buy Tickets matrix on its web site....
