5 DAYS AND COUNTING - FRANCE HERE WE COME

[Beaky]

It's been a while since our last overseas trip (well a few months anyway), so really looking forward to this.
Always an awesome sight to see all our variety of Porsche models in convoy, well it's what we purchased our cars for []

Mines always primed are ready to hit the road at a moments notice, I don't see the point of owning them and having them locked up or SORN in garages, Porsche's are meant to be driven!

OK peoples Don't forget the essentials:
Passport
Licence
Insurance paperwork
Yellow jackets
Breakdown triangle
And taxi numbers for LARRY!

Hoping to come back with the answer to the question - Flat 6 or V2: which is better? Only one way to find out!

 

[jleo]

sorry I'm gonna miss this one guys! Make sure you take it easy over there, especially since you wont have the white air cooled back marker as an air brake []

Small heads up for any of you with pre-96 cars - watch out for E10 fuel in France and don't put it in your cars. The "up to 10%" Ethanol is not good for the fuel lines!!

Rule number 1 ...... NEVER mention the prospect of good weather as it will always bite you in the backside.

btw Need to add V5 and toll money unless you have a Sanef token.

See you all around 7.15am

Armagnac ..... [8D]

Can't decide on tyre choice at the moment after last years outing.

Now if JC would send out pace notes it would be useful. NO wait Gary did that and we never followed them .... Porsche PCM 3.0 thought it knew better [8|]

(Sorry Gary still finding Mud under the car from the 'Freshly ploughed' 3.0 routing)

Are we planning a karaoke night at the hotel bar, we can then all practice

I like to be on the naughty step,
O.K. by me on the naughty step,
Ev'rything cool on the naughty step
For a small deed on the naughty step,

Porsche owners on the naughty step,
Forum debate on the naughty step,
Can't wash my wheels on the naughty step,
What's the big deal on the naughty step

Members go to naughty step,
Many fellows on the naughty step,
Ev'rybody knows on the naughty step,
R20's are bad the naughty step,

I like to be on the naughty step,
You won't get me off the naughty step,
Say hello to my friends from the naughty step,
We'll get things changed from the naughty step!
