If its okay with everyone now that paul has dropped out. I would suggest the following for accommodation because it would make it comfortable for everyone

Me, trevor and my mate Bhupinder stop at the place Paul has booked

Rich and Gareth at the place Rich has booked.

This should give everyone plenty of space

Just packing ready for the off. This is one of the best petrol head related things I have done without a woman in the car. For those who nearly made it, and those who put it off for one reason and another, make sure you reserve 1st week in July next year. Cheers G.

Fuel economy update:
Trevor is winning
Gurmeet second
Me and Gareth third. Gareth in front of me at present frown

On the plus side we got to the hotel almost 2 hrs before Trevor with some stints to north of 150mph on the Autobahn.

Best mpg 28, worst (really best) 17!

Basically me and Gareth torched 50% more fuel than the others.
Though we got to the Hotel 2hr earlier.

Tomorrow more sedate through the Nordic zone.

Gurmeet and Gareth have line locks and spare tyres.
Im not sure why yet biggrin
