Pre Qualifying

[Mr. Rick]

we paid £50.85 return on the Tunnel 35min crossing, 3 and half hours later and you are in Le Mans  ;D

Hey Mr. Pres, where did you get hold of that offer???? Not for me obviously (  :'(  :'(  :'(  :'(  :'( ) but was chatting to one of the other photo chappies and he's struggling to get owt under 200 sovs!

[powermite]

and we cant get P&O or Brittany for less than £760 for 2 cars and four people.
Looks like we'll be giving PQ a miss this year and go to Spa in september

cheers

I am afraid a member of the caravan club which until the 30th of March enables me to pay the same price as a car on all P&O crossing for a motorhome. Powermite have you looked into P&O for either the fast caen crossing or going via Le Havre. both of these are cheaper as brittany charge way over teh odds.

I am going with JPChenet and Steve Brown to Pre-Quals and were discussing last night who would definatley be there. Your name was one of the definates.

Really hope to see you there.

Let me start a list of who is going

The T.W.A.T.S  (Not sure of all the names)
Rcutler
JPChenet
Steve Brown

Who else.

[powermite]

Ive tried P&O to LeHarvre and the absolute cheapest they could offer was the £760 in my previous post.Ive even tried Robbo,as his mate works for P&O and even he cant get any discount!!
I suppose we could all pile into one car but really the reason for going to PQ is more for the  drive down in a couple of cars than the PQ itself.
cheers

PM . I am sorry , but htta;s the reason why i am taking my bike. inflataion has hit the ferry market.

[jpchenet]

If it's the drive down you want, how about the £90 deal we have got for Dover -Calais. Or even more so, the £50.85 The President paid??

PM why dont you try the Newhaven Dieppe route , that was mega cheap and only 4 hour crossing.

[Perdu]

Powermite, I know this sounds stupid but have you tried the offers from the ferry companies in the back of papers like the Mail on Sunday? I noticed that they are offering ridiculous prices for what you might call "early season crossings" Just a thought and might help you out. The ferry companies prices on their web sites are absolute crap, this time last year I was able to get Portsmouth Le Havre for le Mans  for £232, one car two passengers, travelling Friday afternoon. This included "club class". the offers in the "Mail" were much less than this, sorry I don't have the paper handy, to do a check for you, but cannot hurt to try 'em.



;)

[powermite]

Perdu,
I did the same last year too and had a great deal.IUve checked the papers today and there's nothing cheap going at the moment
