Loved these chaps.

Were you on the road on Thursday? We saw you on the Autoroute I think. Looked and sounded lovely - we were the PH convoy; Garlick's TVR, an S4 and a Merc E class estate, all stickered up.
Yes, that was us, we gave you a wave on the way past as we figured it was the PH "officials" convoy!

Depends how brave you feel and early you can get up....
The Gate in Maison Blanche is open early in the Week,and you used to be able to move the Barriers at Tetre Rouge or Porsche Curves,though there are locked now.I've been told off a few times but nothings ever happened.

Anyone notice the M550d btw? That's going to be a rare sight I would think.
T'was I, as invited by one of the more regular PHers.
BMW was kind enough to give me one in which to arse around Europe, while on holiday. It is indeed a stealth missile.

Thanks for hosting the service at LM. Memorable experience for my first (hopefully not last) trip to the race.

Spotted the 550 on camp later that weekend. Nice camping spot you had there.

Bah Humbug! Drove my Cobra 2049 miles over the last week from Aberdeen to Le Mans. Attended the CBW and this event, all "sans roof" eek Must have had the car photographed hundreds if not thousands of times, but so far the only photo I have found on the web is from our brilliant resident photographer at BsM hehe

Oh well, will see if the '34 Rolls fares any better in a couple of weeks time!
This one ?



Same boat here, drove my Griff from Munich to UK (14 hours all roof off) then to LM, all stickered up, no photos anywhere smile

Same last year, that's 2 PH LM meets and no photo's , don't know why I bother sometimes biggrinbiggrin
