Ben Seabrook 4 Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 well the ferry this year is a couple of hours earlier isn't it !! so working back that means am going to have to be up and leave Ipswich 3 hours beforehand !!euro tunnel is only two hours from ipswich ;-)true and prob a bit less at that time of the morning !! and we only have to check in half an hour before the train leaves so not that bad really :) Link to post Share on other sites
andylaurence 0 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I'm really hoping I can still make this trip' date=' but it partly depends on where my car is at in the new year (got alot of work to schedule in for it) and also on the likelyhood of there being snow! I really don't wanna go for a second time and not get out on the track [/quote']It didn't snow all weekend. Those of us who stayed beyond breakfast on the Saturday got lots of laps in. Quite a few laps in the dry with the sun beating down too. I was wearing a T-Shirt on the Sunday.... Link to post Share on other sites

Jamesr_VR6 0 Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Well, bad news..................im not buying a VR6 or a GTI or anything vag for that matter for qutie a while.The good news? im still coming Hard decision but with finance crippling me, good vags for my budget hard to come by and a flourishing relationship with the missus ive decided i need to get back to basics and walk before i can run.So with a low budget top of my wish list is a 51 plate laguna, it ticks all the boxes, doesnt look bad, and ive got a mate whos head mechanic at my local renault garage so get super discountThen in a few years when i have savings, better pay, and whatever else i can look into nice sports cars.I think its the sensible option, instead of getting into more debt with a car i cant afford to run, but buy a car outright, get out of debt and save up for something uber tasty (R32!!!)So if anyone wants to give me a lift round the track i will be willing to pay half the lap cost!!!!!!!!but will get myself their and everything as i would before, works out well cus ill save money Link to post Share on other sites
