will be in this again and as per usual, I assume the traditional LM weather will mean I'll be putting the roof up and down like a yoyo

Well I do love that F40 but I'm more than happy with my car ! Mind you, I'd love to have the choice of course :-)

The driver of the F40 will probably come down in his CGT this year seeing as Porsche will be running officially at LM, which means he too can take his roof off - he has a stable to make you weep......

I cannot decide between my 997 (last year before I sell it) or borrowing my Dad's H2 Hummer. One is the definitive sports car but common as muck, one is a behemoth V8 barge but drives like crap.

It's a nice choice, granted, but a puzzling one. I'm leaning towards the 911 if I'm honest.

In 2012 my mate took his Chevy Caprice Convertible (1970-ish) to Houx. And although he had one of the cheapest and shabbiest cars around, it also was one the coolest. I think Le Mans campers like their Yank metal, so I'd take the Hummer if I were you. Dress it up as a sherrif's car or something like that. And you'll have more room to stuff your gear in.

I know I am promoting a Hummer in the post above, but if the choice included this baby, I'd go for this! Dribble dribble....

If his initials are PB I went in a group with him once before when he took the CGT, one of the best cars on earth to follow, what a noise.

No different chap - last time I met up with him was about 2 months ago and he'd only just got the CGT. It does indeed sound magnificent
