TTDutchy and I are travelling from Wembley in a Z4 3.0 and a slightly tuned VX220 N/A. We'll be joining this convoy at Abbeville at 10am but haven't booked the tunnel yet. We could agree to meet somewhere on route; what crossing are you on?

Graham, as we're now meeting on route from West London, will you be joining us in Miner's convoy from Abbeville too?

Hi everyone - Just a quick bump to let you know that you should all be in receipt of the route.

If any of you are missing it, please let me know.

Not long now fellas!

Miners,

is there any chance of you emailing the route to me, I would like to join, but will depend if we can get to the tunnel early and get across, currently on the 9.36 to get in at 11.10am.

Would like to join a convoy on the way down just to make it a bit more fun....a single car just isnt the same when getting to Le Mans

Thanks for the interest Jon, but unless you're planning on getting to the Eurotunnel at least couple of hours earlier and taking your chances of being accommodated on an earlier train, you're never going to make it. Do let me know if this is your plan though.

We do something very similar, have done for a number of years now, we will also be on approximately the same sort of schedule, maybe our paths will cross.

GTB
GTR
RX7
2x260Z
ST
X3M

It's not the arrival but the driving that counts!

Thanks Miners, think we will struggle with that....i did put it tot he group but a 4.30am leave was thought to be a littleb bit 'keen', shame as would have been good to join you.
