I have just seen some bloke offering 'The Aston Martin Experience at Le Mans -2005' on that auction site. This involves being driven around the public roads that form part of the circuit on Friday in some blokes Aston. And he wants £50 a time. Take two passengers in the back & it's up to £80!!
You could do the Helecopter trip around the circuit during the race for that money.
Do the passengers know they are likley to get soaked by water pistols as they drive certain parts of the circuit. Do they know they will be unable to go faster than 10mph on many parts due to crowds. Do they know the open parts of the circuit are swarming with French Police? Do they know they can drive the circuit for free? So he is charging £50 for a sit in his Aston!!
I am all for free enterprise, but this is taking the pi**. I doubt (but do not know) if this guy has insurance to carry fare paying passengers. I think he is just another from that auction site who see's the 'Le Mans Experience' as an oppertunity to make money. I thought that was the ACO's job!!

Yes they're quite good, we took these last year and they went down (up?) pretty well. It is Maison Blanche you're staying on Robspot, isn't it? If you haven't stayed there before, you might find you're in for a bit of a surprise. I hope you're broadminded. |

Ummm! I was a little disapointed to only get a Blue camping pass this year. Maybe it was for the best! |

You could always try pretending you were gift shopping for the Mrs! However, I think your best defence is to say nothing on the grounds that you might incriminate yourself... just try looking enigmatic.  F |

I hope you rushed out and bought her a new video phone when you got back and have got her to book another party this year?!?! |
