I'll be driving my trusty white Honda Integra plus we've got a red MX-5 and a BMW I think.

Will all be in convoy travelling from Nottingham to Portsmouth and accross Tuesday afternoon stopping in Ouistreham (near Caen) and to Le Mans on Weds.

Once you've paid Condor's rip-off prices, that is, Fagey!  I heard there was going to be an alternative ferry company - has this happened?

We haven't had a drop of rain for a month - we've been saving it up for you.

but the again the fastest car in the world is a hire car after all, although two of our party are coming in a 1977 911 though.

At the current rate of progress on the car hunting front, nothing.

Went shot gun last year for the first time ever - never again.

Still scanning the classifieds/web/mags on a daily basis, for my ideal drive.

This thread has made me realise that things are getting close.

I can just imagine the drivers of the classics, out in their garages, fettling and tinkering.......

New comers are worrying about what to take.........

Old hands are looking forward to the repeat of their Le Mans rituals.......

Bands are looking for drummers.........

French pykies are looking forward to getting their hands on other peoples cast offs.......

Generally, everyone is looking forward to catching up with friends and having a right old laugh.

Roll on.
