Can't comment on that particular ferry but done P&O & Britanny several times on both the normal and fast ferries and never had a problem

I'm sure you'll be fine.

Enjoy the looks you'll get on the otherside!

Many of us use Speed Ferries every year to go to Lemans, they take a great deal of care loading and unloading putting rope down etc to ensure safe passage.

Same experience here. Used Speed Ferries for Le Man in June and they were excellent. No problems getting my Tuscan MkII S on and off.

Have a good trip

thanks guys, really looking fwd to going now. especially as just had stereo upgrade done to a 7'dvd player and alpine sub woofer fitted which sounds and looks so good..
and tomorrow i take her down to racing green who are refurbing my wheels and finishing them in smoked chrome and a new set of tyres all round..
will post pics when done.

Yep took my Tuscan with Speed ferrys the summer before last, no problems at all
I even asked if they could park me on the Flat as handbrakes on TVR's aint that hot!

Don't worry, and go for it. OH

You'll have just two problems with your trip to Le Mans:
1. The S6 at 5 / 6 / 7k rpm the whole trip will make you realise you don't need the ICE (other than Carbon Cans!).
2. Your new tyres won't last long.

Enjoy
