down monday aswell. so might see you on the way down, i will put up the usual where are you staying thread soon so everyone knows where people are staying. Still not sure what car we are taking this year, might be the daimler blue sv8 or a new defender v6 not as comfortble as the daimler but will certainly go a lot further on a gallon of petrol and can take a load more gear down.

We're also coming down on Monday this year. We decided to skip scrutineering, having done it 10 times now and the Test Day (having done that last year).

Were down on Wednesday (early ferry now) and back Monday - had to change as shuttle making one car very late (for the furthest traveller and early starters at work on the Tuesday). Nice to finish trip without too much of a long long day - especially as there's usually a few delays then at terminals too.
SV8 was the flagship before the XFR I believe - had to get rid of the NA V8 first model XF recently and do miss the engine response. |

We are in the Tuesday overnight ferry so arriving Wednesday. Thought this would be the last tent camping trip, but our campervan is now ready so it will be the first foreign trip in that

This received from ACO today -
"You have booked a parking permit for the Panorama, Expo, Mulsane-Arnage car park or Parking PZ54 car park. This year, your parking permit will be a sticker that you will receive by secured mail. You won’t need to exchange your E-ticket for a permit when you get to the circuit." Encouraged to check the address is correct on my ticketing account. Assume the idea is to speed the flow into the car park on first arrival ? |

Looks like the ACO have finally realised that they need to do something for the locals.....

Just a very generic question. We're joining a coach and hotel tour through Select Motor Racing. Anyone have any experience with this group? (And, yes, this is a bit late to be asking.)

I'm afraid I don't know anything about Select Motor Racing, although their website looks reassuring.

Nope, never heard of them either. I guess you have to know about them to find them

Sounds like Le Mans is going to busy this year and why not in a very special year for them. We could see a few events added too.
