Dave Don't get me wrong, if you organise this IM THERE DUDE!! Kin and I had great fun in a little convoy of two just getting there. I can only imagine the craic with a number of cars. Its just that if it is like any of the top gear challenges, the cars bought for like 500 always seem to break down and stuff but again, thats part of it I suppose. Mick |

Ok guys i think the next step is to throw a date out there and see the response. I have found a nice 735 on autotrader for £400 and it looks good, and come on, that will go around the track nicely if it doesnt breakdown or blow up. Im also going to arrange a 1 way flight home, as ive never driven on a track before and will prob end up in the ditch. Or bum a lift back with someone. Major plus of not driving your own M is your not going to cry if something does go wrong on the track. Hopefully it wont dough so i can make a bit for charity on resale. Even if i cant sell it after, i will still donate from my own pocket, or create a sponsor card. As i said, throw a few dates out there and see how ppl are fixed. Also some costing would need to be done ie ferries and accomodation and track day etc. I will help where i can so just give the nod.......

990 - driver training-
500 - Dublin to Holyhead(depends on when you book) 600 (2 x 300) - 2 nights stay in London, to and from Germany (depends on where you stay) 170 - Folkstone to Calais (depends on when you book) 700 - Petrol (depends on what car you drive) 200 (4 x 50) - 4 nights stay in Germany (depends on where you stay) 1000 - Spending money, entertainment... Okay subtract the driver training, get cheaper boat and book in advance, drive straight to folkstone, staying one night in UK, not that much on petrol! Stay in Germany, spending money, split it 3,4 ways with passengers...300-500 per person including spending money but not the purchase of the car. I think once we have a good few numbers we can meet up to discuss it, and plan it properly, running through all the potential situations and the best time to go. So who's up for it? |

Sounds like a mental idea - I like it.
If ye decide to push the date back (a lot) - I would be interested in joining ye at the end of Summer. |

Folks, was talking to Alan from AC car sales over the weekend and he said he'd be up for it also so that's another one 'possibly' on board. I think we have enough numbers to go through the trip in greater detail. I've got 2 mates on board also so that's atleast 7 or 8 of us. Suggestions on where to meet?
