10:04. That's perilously close to sub 10 mins.
Have a safe drive back mate.
RE: on my way! - Piggy - 04-05-2014
Sounds epic...for you anyway!!
If only you had lost a bit more weight bud...would have been -10min!!
RE: on my way! - cully - 05-05-2014
all i can say is.....
what a truely epic week we have had
all three peugeots have done us all proud not missing a beat even the alfa chris bought a few days before the trip ran faultless
such a shame we didnt bring all five cars home but the Ford did die Giving its all,
both occupants wallked away with only seatbelt marks and a few airbag burns
im sure there will be some pictures and great storys to come of this car
but for now you will have to put up with some pictures ive found from photographers around the circuit that sell there pics

RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - cully - 06-05-2014
for anyone that is interested in doing this trip i will do a breakdown of the cost
to show what it has cost me so you have some idea on the expense
trip is base on myself and my wife sharing
6 nights away
1st night at a travel lodge on the m20 close to the eurotunnel
5 nights in germany in a shared chalet with 8 people
with return ticket on the Eurostar channel tunnel
Cost breakdown.....
Accomadation 6x nights + train tickets ..................................................£380
Fuel cost 183 litres Full trip .................................................................£260.69
Spending money euros mostly food/beer/RingTaxi/casewine/dutyfrees ...£531.97
4 laps @ the ring ...............................................................................£84.89
card payments/Food/museum/souvenirs/wife treat ..............................£134.25
TOTAL...............................................................................................£1391.80
the prices above have included the credit card charges for euro conversions when buying fuel ect, also the charges for drawing the spending euros on a credit card as cash
honestly you could spunk a whole load more money on laps and the other guys did!
the above dont include
Breakdown cover cost me £9 as a insurance policy addon
health insurance £40 for us as a couple for the trip
i have work out the MPG on the whole trip for my GTI6
183ltrs i did 1273.6 miles works out to 31.63Mpg
Re: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - kentiiboii - 06-05-2014
Thats not too bad in a gti6 really. Did most people camp?
RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - cully - 06-05-2014
none of our group camped we all stayed in a luxury fully equiped chalet which had 3 double bedrooms and a spacious lounge for car part storage

RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - Grant - 06-05-2014
Looks like an epic trip!
Definitely need to do this next year
RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - jammapic - 06-05-2014
This is the 7th (I think) time I've done this trip now, and to be honest it keeps getting better and better!
For all those that said "yeah, I'll do that" in the original thread, you missed out. Much fun had!!
Same again next year Cully?

RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - Niall - 06-05-2014
Wow thats actually not as expensive as i thought. I would be camping if i did it so would save some dosh there. Will be up for this next year if i can afford an appropriate sized supply of big ends!
RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - Piggy - 06-05-2014
Awesome. About a pound a mile then.
So who binned it?

RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - Piggy - 06-05-2014
Ah fair enough. Hope they got back ok
RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - jammapic - 06-05-2014
Yeah, Jimmyboycheck gave him a lift home.
RE: on my way! Nurburgring 2014 - cully - 06-05-2014
yes piggy we brought Him home with all the goods he took and even delivered him to his door
we wouldnt of left a man stranded while he was down
I also believe he got more laps of the ring without a car than I did with one
and James you best pencil me in for next year and i want the ensuite this time
