looks good but £700 for a weekend is abit steep tbh.

All in aid of charity though

Thing is, you can book a 4 day weekend with a guided tour company for as little as £400 per car+driver an then an extra £279 per passenger lol

Thats half board catering included, ferry included etc basically everything except fuel, some food & beer & then track time (which id just buy up second hand via northloop site lol)

Its a shame a bloke i knew has now retired as he done this for a living, organising guided tours out there.

HI guys,

The Nurburgring 100 is my trip and I noticed I was getting some hits from your forum so thought I'd register and say hello :)

The price is per car based on two people sharing.


Its a shame a bloke i knew has now retired as he done this for a living, organising guided tours out there.
The bloke you are referring to is Mav and I took over from him, still the same great tours just brought up to a date and with more on offer. Please see the main website for details.

Thanks for all the comments guys and hope to see some of you in June. :thumb:

Dino

Ps - a mate of mine George is on here, has a black caged up Nova GTE (1.6) with buckets - not sure what his username is though?

Mike
14-12-09, 06:12 PM
Dino, yeah ive heard your name mentioned by friends before.

I also know a George, she owns Mav's old Passat, the old girl (the passat i mean lol) is still going very strong :) was out in it the other weekend in Warrington of all places lol

Mav's now running an outfit doing VIP deliveries across Europe so I hear??

what show do you guys want? oschersleben is really, really huge, full weekend meet. then there's a very good show at the parking of the Opel factory in Bochum (Das werk ruft), that's just a 1 day show.
both are in germany to keep it easy for you guys lol

btw, if there's a euro/ring trip, i'll join you guys when you arrive on the mainland :)

£800 for 3 nights in a 4* hotel for 2 people, plus all the extras seems good to me.
A decent hotel in the UK would be £100 per night for 2 people.

Itll be a case of home from work, car keys, European Sat Nav, late night google some hotel bookings & an epic roadtrip with the digi cam/corder im afraid. 2 weeks of continental mayhem will more then likely ensue lol

Not had a holiday of any signifance since 2004, so gotta pack some mischief in somewhere :)

21 hour?!?! the ferry to Rotterdam is about 6 hours iirc. and expensive. and the departure times suck.

yeah but the two huge bonus points are 1 I can get bevvied for most or the route and 2 it's less distance to nurse the nova home lol I don't mind the cost too much and it can't be that bad on the boat, I recently went from Ullapool to stornoway in winter seas and it was highly unpleasent, driving south is just an ****, I took the nova to Alton towers years ago ans swore I'd never take it a long drive again lol might also see if the wife would come too in my s3
