I started a thread on the Scotland forum to little effect so thought I'd ask the same question here.

Who's making the journey down from Scotland, and what are you driving?

I'll get the ball rolling

Tinohead (+7 mates) - Renault Master Bambulance (you'll know it when you see it wink

Starting off in Newbridge in a 206 GTI, picking up S2000 and 911 on route. The 206 is being left on the way and continuing in the S2000 and 911 to Le Mans biggrin

Will have the small but obligatory Scotland flag on the S2000, so give us a wave if you see us.

Hi Guys,

I'm going this year, for the first time! Booked with team Langoustine.

Were leaving Tuesday for the Hull - Zebrugge overnight ferry and coming back on the Monday.

Thought about taking the Griff, but decided to take the daily driver BMW335i convertible for a bit more peace of mind... and cruise control!

See you there.
