As long as I get a go in the Astra Turbo like the Elise last year its not a problem. Camping with us is not a problem, the more the merrier...

\:D/ Cheers guys, thanks for the welcome, booked up the ferry for tues. morning, & e-mailed the chateuax to ask them to add me to the MR2 village on the campsite. Been on VW club trips in the past & it's a much better time when you go with a BIG party of devotees than on your own. Even when you dont know each other, you're treated like you've known each other for years. Looking forward to meeting you lot. & i promise not to show you all up in my GSi (hehe).

Steve,

You're dead right mate, we are all well up for it, welcome guests with open arms ( even if you don't have a 2 ) and we now have 6 years past experience in running the Le Mans tour.

Have you had a look at the past 6 years from the links.

Cheers

Yeah, had a few hours to spare this afternoon (waiting for a new bed to be delivered) so had a bit of a look thru the 'imocuk' site, quite impressive, lot of stuff to read. Good quality pics on here too,, some nice motors both mk1's & 2's. Looks more like a total p*ss up than a trip to the racing :lol: Damn...... i've missed it the last 6 years.!!

Looking forward to meeting you alll as we dont get much of a chance up here in the north of Scotland.

Any other scots attending or are we the only ones.

Come on just go for it.

It a once in a lifetime.(or maybe once a year)

See you all there

Hi all

Mike i am sorry to say myself and lynne will no longer be going to le mans next year as i have been sent to iraq in may for four months :evil: ,

I hope you all have a great time and i am now sooooo jealous :mrgreen: as i know how much i enjoyed it last year!!

the good news is that my ferry is all booked still, Before i cancel it i thought i would offer the tickets to people who are able to go, i booked when they were only £58 which is all i would want for them. If your interested in doing this or know of anyone who is yet to book then please pm me asap as i will have to cancel the booking eventually.
Deatails are: tues 12 @ 1200-Dover to Bologne/tue 19 @1500- Bologne to Dover.

Have to say again....I'M GUTTED ABOUT NOT GOING :pale:

no probs fella's, can hold onto it for a little while, it is a single car with two passenger booking though, guess it doesn't matter if it drops to one driver and a car though.

Sorry to hear you will not make the trip to le man as i was looking forward to meeting you.

Never mind if you are back by 15-16th September you can join the Scottish trip.

There are already a few coming from down south including Micheal and Joanne Sheavills, Jinxy and Max starr.
