Is anyone interested in coming along on the Canonball Run with me in my Tuscan, and sharing the costs?

I'd love to do it, but can't think of any of my mates who would be that interested.

So what would a 1/2 share cost? Roughly

Entry fee is £2350, plus fuel, tolls etc...

Splitting that 50/50 would be £1175 + share of other expenses - not bad for a week of hooning around Europe!!

I would love to as I am an unlucky lad who has never been in a TVR but as I have just bought a new modified Golf Gti - I cant afford too. As I live in Milton Keynes I see many TVR's go round but no one is kind enough to stop and give a stranger a ride - doh!

Is that half share on an engine rebuild?

Nah - the warranty should cover that!

Nice Griff by the way!

I'm sorely tempted. For some reason l keep getting 'Italian Job' visions of the Tuscan's arse skidding out over sheer drops and me throwing up with fear into a jury rigged map-bag.

Might be worth meeting up first to see if it clicks. After all who wants to be stuck in a car for 7 days with a cnut!

Not really sure to be honest - there are places available at the moment, but I'm not 100% sure if I will do it. I'd like to, but will partly depend on whether I can find anyone to go with.

I guess if a few people show interest, then I'll get my entry in soonish, which will give me a bit longer to sort out who goes with me!
