Le mans 24 2015 What Are You Driving??

[H100S]

Company car. Sadly nothing exotic but it's comfortable ace on fuel and I've grown quite attached to it. Shouldn't sticker them up so this subtle decal will have to suffice.

[Mr Noble]

No picture of the actual car as I don't pick it up till tomorrow.

Getting it brand new in the morning, then home to pack and off to the ferry at 6am Thursday


Can't wait - best way to run a car in ever!

This is a pic stolen from the web. Sahkir Orange M4 Coupe.

Hopefully making stately progress in this.

Packed: pop up tent, Costco camping lounger, sleeping bag, two pillows, umbrella, crash helmet, tonneau, triangle, 2x 5 litre fuel cans, various small tools, WD40, 2L water, overnight bag, spare (legal) number plates, full waterproofs, paraphernalia and a magic tree air freshener. 21 of us heading to Airtrack on Thursday after stop over near Calais. Good luck and blue skies to all.

LeMans newbies - father & son team in a heavily modified Fiat Coupe 20VT (without the wedding ribbons...) - lukewarm aircon, firm suspension, juddery organic clutch, 3" exhaust and a couple of huge grins all the way from the Midlands

Where are you staying Nigel? Would be good to see your Coupe.

Good to see another E28 making the trip!

[cookee]

Not your usual Le Mans transport - it was a Range Rover Classic - wave if you see us - Plymouth Roscoff camping at Airtrack!

[SturdyHSV]

Tried making some more room for beer...



Thought better of it in the end, back together last night

Will be great to meet you. That car looks amazing.

First-timer here, staying in Beausejour. Please, don't mind the Californian in the US-spec Jetta/Golf mom-wagon with German plates looking totally confused, that's all perfectly normal. Cheers.

Ferry/Tunnel??

We're on the 4am Dover to Calais Ferry.

[coetzeeh]

Safe driving everyone and have great fun as one can only do at LM! I can almost hear the noise and taste the beer....

Next year!

Close, but no cigar.

[idiotgap]

Still a work in progress... but here's a first photo of my ride!



It's a 2009 Specialized Allez Sport with full 9sp tiagra bought approx 1yr ago to try out cycling. I paid £200 including spesh helmet, spesh shoes, tri-bars and a blackburn mini-pump. Since then over time it's had a new lh shifter (2nd hand), new cassette (old one was a silly 11-23) and a pair of gatorskins. I've covered about 2k km on it.

As of this morning it has approx 1kg insulation tape martini style.

I decided on Tuesday to give cycling over a go, so it's been a bit of a rushed job.This is a thread I'm going to try and update with progress. http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...
I'm driving down to get the overnight from Portsmouth to Caen tonight.
