Hi guys, just thought i would share my happiness with you all!
I have owned my Cerbera 4.2 for 5 years now and only managed to take it out of the UK last week. I had to go to Amsterdam for work so decided it was time to drive rather than fly(boring!).
I left thursday evening and arrived early friday morning, had a meeting then spent the next 4 days cruising around holland. Can I just say how pleased i am that the cerbie drove perfect for 900 miles with no little niggles and stalls and only cost me 2.5 tanks of vpower? Well chuffed..

So for any of you who havent taken your rockets abroad i suggest you do so asap, i assure you will be continuously grinning smile

OH God Graham, I wish you hadn't done that!!

Would love to join you guys for that weekend but finding it difficult to justify it...being a family man!

Nicky's been on my case for this trip, in a nice way that is (just in case she reads this laugh ) but don't think I'm going to be able to do it.

Yes once you have paid for the crossing, hotels, track time & beer/fuel I would think thats about right. Haven't added all my costs up.

Have a look on the thread, some of us have booked already. If you are thinking of doing Spa as well get on to the TVRMONSTER site and book for Spa there.

Cheers mate, almost 100% I'll be at the Ace Cafe in June. I'll pop some dates soon.
I've lived in Amsterdam for 9.5 years but with the kids and all I'm living in Leusden, central Holland. Give a shout when you're around and I'll show you the decent beers to drink.

Wonderfull, I'll bring a vidcam wink 12th is open in my diary. Just The Dam is plain boring, there are some great bars around if you don't mind walking a little.

It goes without saying you guys need to have a good sh@g? I know just the place for you pussies.

I think the ch@cks with d@cks section is just the thing for that evening biggrin A must see and a great opportunity to place some bets: "A tenner in the pot for him to return a filled up rubber!"


@Berg: PM when you're all set up for a visit. There might be some Dutch chaps up for a meet.

@Fubes: you guys bring cars? If so I know a few tunnels in the area. Just a 45 mins blast to get in the proper mood.

No Dink, flying in....beer/shmokes and cars probably not a good mix...especially with the trams and canals yikes
