Well we have 18 cars going all of which are Ford RS's travelling down via Calais and eurotunnel you wont be able to miss us as we will probably be all broken down at the side of the road all the way to Le Mans give us a honk as you laugh at us with our spanners in hand

I saw a Focus RS convoy parked at Eurotunnel at Folkstone 2-3 years back. I assume it was you guys. I've also seen the rent-a-car parking at MB! Great stuff.

Yeah we run the Focus RS Convoy in 2003 & 2004 both of which had 35 cars, then we did 2006,7 with 18 & 22 cars respectively but these ones were all sorts of RS's from RS500's to Mk2 RS2000's.

This year we have a great assortment of RS's going all parking in MB again so why not pop over and say hello if your floating around MB we all cant wait to get there tbh and it would be good to touch base with some of you on here

I remember the Puma Racing convoys many years ago... I think Ford offered the trip as a special when you bought the car.. Good luck to you

Yep was one of the organisers involved but did not go that was a very special event and is the one that led to us running this independantly FoMoCo showed us what Le Mans was all about and once you get the bug thats your lot. we are already beginning to plan for next year.

We were organising this within the RS Owners Club but we welcome everyone nowadays as veriety is the spice of life
