With regard to comfort doubles I believe they are now provisionally booked :nod:
Comfort rooms have been built recently built,all the other rooms are all of a very high standard.

Hi, what's the rough cost of this trip all in?

Depending on numbers an upgrade on the ferry for us coming back last time was worth every penny, very relaxing:smile:

I asked this yesterday. The general consenus was between £500-750 mate, £500 being the bare minimum!

Costs are obviously higher if you drive out on your own and have your own room, if you share with someone or take a partner it roughly halves the cost.

Fuel - £300
Hotel - 4 nights @ ~ 80 euros a night.
Ferry - £60
Laps - 26 euros each i think (this year) or 4 laps for 95 euros ?
Food & Drink - whatever you choose to spend!
European breakdown cover if you don't have it already.

When i go with the wife, we end up spending about £1000 between the two of us, so £500 each.

Just totted that lot up and i'd say that was pretty much spot on Steve. With 8 laps of the ring and approx 140 Euros spending money for your food and drink you won't get much change out of £900 exchange rates depending. That's for one on their own.

Thinking of going then Stu?

Yes mate love too, it's something I'vewanted to do since I found out about it. The ring is the ultimate Mecca for Petrol Heads! You thinking about it too then mate?

Last year with SES was my first year and loved the experience. The area is amazing and truly beautiful with some of the best roads you can imagine. There's car porn wherever you look. I didn't find the food costs too bad and there's a really good value pizza place in Adenau.
I loved it so much that I was back there again in August :-)
I'd wholly recommend it.

I wont be able to make this. Off to Monaco F1 GP that weekend :(

Shame you cant make it mate as you will be missed, still there is always 2014,

I expect you'll have as much fun in Monaco.

That's exactly what everyone says mate, needs to be done. All that will stop me is not being able to get the time off of work which hopefully won't be a problem. Gatebil is another overseas event I'd love to attend....one step at a time though ;-)

Pretty decent compromise though mate. One of, if not the, most glamorous sporting event in the world :-)

We will be there before anyway :D

TF prices for 2013 have just been released:
http://bridgetogantry.com/2/index.ph...uristenfahrten

Lapticket prices for Nordschleife Touristenfahrten from January 1st, 2013:

1 lap: 26,- € (same price as 2012)
4 laps: 97,- € (€2 more than 2012)
9 laps: 202,- € (€5 more than 2012)
25 laps: 499,- € (€9 more than 2012)

I think thats pretty good actually, considering all thats going on over there at the moment - was expecting them to ramp the prices up to try and cash in!

I could be up for this if I got the money and if I still got a job in the army as my regiment 5scots is getting disbanded next year due to cut backs so I will keep you all informed and let you know nearer the time .

The list at the moment is to gauge interest, nothing can be booked until The Ring calendar is published in January.

Those on the list will obviously have priority with regards to the comfort rooms.

This a brilliant trip, and if you're like me once you've been you'll want to go again and again.:doubleup:

:agreed:

Just like Saville in a playground

so bad its good

I'm hoping my car will be done by then!!

Nice one Tom :nod:

At least you now have something to aim for,

I cant think of a better way to test your new build out.. :doubleup:

I officially have permission to go now and a co-pilot!

Definitely something to aim for and a bright light at the end of what seems a very long tunnel! :-)

RESULT :five:

Nice one Tom, you'll be the 3rd owner to take your bug to the Ring! :)

Oh no! I'm going to see my old car passing my new one. Well done mate you will love it:drive:

Looking forward to it, first time and all that!

Hopefully any passing will be in a straight line facing forwards and not sideways or backwards with a look of terror on my face!

Depends on if we are free,but if we are free,we will go too for sure
