Any one have any plans for Le Mans this year?

Guessing there must be some 100 year celebrations plans, 100 Astons to convoy over together be good wink

Well, as luck would have it, I am driving to the south of france that weekend, and clearly I have informed the girlfriend that Le Mans was the only place available to break up the drive for a night, oh, is there a car gathering that weekend? How unfortunate.

I think I will only be available for the Saturday afternoon and evening to soak up some atmosphere, but am interested as to other Aston Martin related goings ons and plans etc.

I'm sure AMOC will be doing something, but only for the most important members, the member's friends and the member's friend's tennis partners yes

I'm going on Thursday staying at Houx.

Might change the "AMR" wings/logo stickers that are currently on the doors to the 100 logo.

See y'all at the 'poo bar at midnight on Saturday.

Yarp yes

Must have been in there until 2 or 3 last year. Pommehogster doesn't half shout a lot when he's been on the fizz rolleyes

So, I've never been, thought about it every year and this seems the right year to take the car....

Any advise welcome. Would like to take the V12V, travel over Fri first thing, camp (with car next to me) and travel back Monday. Do I look for a package, or arrange it all seperately, where should I stay, which grandstand do I choose, etc

HELP smile

thanks

I would imagine that you have left it too late frown

You won't find a camping pitch now unless it's with a full package tour operator for many hundreds of pounds. Or you may get lucky on the LM thread in the general area with someone selling.

We book in November every year, by January everything is sold out.
