Back finally and absolutely loved it! Third time me and my mates have been now and its still as good as the first time I went

Nice early start on the friday but not until we got some stickers on my mates car. hell be selling it now were back and i cant begin to explain how much well miss it! hes had it since school and weve had so many laughs in it over the last 6 years that were all gutted its finally going



8am ferry out of dover but it meant a chance for a chill out over a breakfast id take the ferry over the chunnel every day of the week, cant stand being stuck in that for the crossing





back in the car before having to stop part way as brake light had gone got it changed with a lot of swearing and broke part of the plastic casing

carried on the drive down to cologne where we stayed for the first night, let my mate take over for a while which was a strange experience being in the back of my pride and joy



also, we highly approve of german advertising



got to cologne in a good time and then proceeded to a good night out which left a few of us feeling a bit tender the next morning

during the night, couple of us slipped down to the car park to put rally names on the cars. Me and my mate (in the KA) got our own names but we got special ones made up for our chinese mate who had no idea but took it in good spirit



back on the road around 9 the next morning for the 1 hour drive to the guesthouse we stayed at before then getting over to the ring. had a great first day and the car performed brilliantly over the day altho sadly the go pro mount id bought performed miserably so all my videos are useless from day 1

headed into nurburg that night for dinner at the Pistenklasse restaurant where every one went for an enourmous steak and we had to get a picture with the Essex boys sign



back on the ring the next day with a fixed go pro mount for some more laps and i managed to finally get under the 10 minute barrier, very happy with this and even more so after watching the video back to see the amount of missed chances to bring that time down further, next year i should definitely be able to get under 9:40 without further mods ill upload the lap video at some point

left around half 3 in the evening to head back to brussels for the night where we again proceeded into a good night out and another sore head the morning after

final day was drive back where stopped over in Brugge for lunch and a wander round before getting the ferry home.





So 5 countries, 945 miles and another fantastic trip. Said it before and ill say it again, if you havent been there yet, bloody well book up and go!

Another great write up Liam!! Glad you all had fun

Looks great, I neeeed to go at some point.

Awesome buddy

It's a place anyone who's into cars should go to at least once.

Glad to see you visited Bruges on the way back too - a lovely little town with some great architecture!

Love the stickers "today you have seen a legend" LOL

So how much did it cost you in fuel for the trip?

Wish id made them bigger so they were easier to read on the road



roughly 185 for each car

Looks great

Great write up! Looks like you guys had some real fun! I've bad to put off going but next year is a definite!

A great write-up. I'm sure the Sport Ka would have been fun going round, they're just like driving a go-kart.

its exactly like a go kart Chris, no competition on the straights but it keeps up with everyone in corners, serious fun
