It ll be good to see the cossy boys faces when a wee Fiesta flashes past them on some of the tight and tricky stuff

Just bought a playstation 2 and GT4 and " borrowed " my mates wee boys memory card to practise

Lou Lou.

ohhhh i might go, has anybody got any more details on it? prices etc...

dalsy70

rough cost for a 4/5 day trip is around £1000 ( thats what to budget for)

Mines will be a little dearer, its £441 for the ferry from Rosyth to Zebbrugge, then Ive got tyres to buy, brake pads, insurance for the car etc,,,, but I went there in April 2005 in my road car and I luved it, so going back in something a lot quicker

had did you work it out at 1000? that including all repairs and wearing products i.e. brakes and tires etc. i worked my trip out at £450.

dalsy70

for me personally it will be

£441 for the ferry
£ 160 for Hotel
£ 100 in Fuel for the Fiesta
£70 in fuel for the mondeo tow car
£ 150 for track time or there abouts
£ 150 for food/ drink for myself and girlfriend
RAC European cover £70

Not included is £300 for insurance for my Fiesta
£ 50 for the MOT
£ 150 for 2 spare tyres
£ 50 for set of spare brake pads

Personally this is what it cost me to go to the Ring in April, Im sure others maybe can get there cheaper.

I was £900 2 years ago going with my road car and that was leaving from Hull which is significantly cheaper than leaving from Rosyth, but since im taking the Fiesta on a trailer Ill leave from Scotland this time, less miles on the road

thats cool. its my first time going next year so this is a good help. thats one expensive ferry ride. i'm going on the euro tunnel at 118 return. cool that should be a good base to help me out my planning. what hotel are you staying at?

dalsy70

we are staying at the Hotel zur Burg

heres the link http://www.nuerburgring-hotel.de/uk/

I know a guy whos been plenty times and says this hotel is very good, so looking forward to it, Stayed at the Hortel Nordleiffe in Addenau last time, but this was fully booked byfellow passionforders
