I'll be crossing the channel on Thursday evening and staying in Calais. On Friday our group of 2 S's, a chimaera, a cerbera, a Boxster and a VX220 will be having a 4-5 hour scenic blat to Spa where we'll meet up with a couple of other S owners from this forum along with a whole load of other cars coming from the UK France, Belgium, Holland, Germany... and Denmark!

Have fun guys! Very jealous - wish I was returning this year. Watch out for Mr Plow - he'll be fast around Spa without the extra ballast wink

MG MOT tomorrow, and *drum roll* TVR MOT on Friday!!!! Started up no problem having not been on the road since the Scotland trip. Wish us luck...I have a feeling we may need it. Well that and quite a bit of cash. Probably best remove the mouse nest from the drivers seat before I set off too? Don't want them biting the tester on the arse...

Safe motoring!

I assume the other Sag & the Lotus you referred to are Tony & his son? If yes the Lotus has been replaced by one of these http://www.pistonheads.com/doc.asp?c=161&i=275...

The others that I know of staying in Calais on Wednesday are Gozzy in a T350 and a mate of his in a Westfield. A couple of additional cars will also be there but I don't know their owners or what cars they're in.

There should be 24 of you at Corbion on the Thursday night driving

There was one of these parked up at the Chatsworth gathering this year - very nice indeed, for a German car I suppose
