Radios - might have to upgrade mine as I couldn't recharge them on the EB07 trip - ended up having to borrow one.
And ARGH! Not sure what I've done but I now can't open up the confirmation email for the first night's hotel accommodation.
It will be a good chance for a coffee and a snack before the Chunnel and 3-4hrs driving the other side.
Guess we should be at the services at 13:00-13:30ish
but what services just looked it up and it say's there are 3 ( i have never been down the m20)
Probably best to meet at J3 (Trottiscliffe) services. I looked them up as well and the other 2 are at J1 and J2. The guys coming from the west (anti-clockwise round the M25) will miss J1 and J2 by using the M26 link road.
Where are you coming from Neil?
Saw your MLR post about your MOT failure Neil. I think your MOT tester needs to update his files. 888's are road legal, as are window tints if they let 70% of light through, and as far as I'm aware, any brake pads are legal for road use.

This time 2 weeks from now we will be in Pau having a few beers.
Good idea ref meeting up, was thinking of leaving Reading at 12:30 train is at 16:20 so need to be at terminal for 15:30ish. Looking at AA route planner thye reckon it will take 2:15 to drive so allowing 3 hours that should be safe.
Will see how drive goes but I suspect I will miss you so see you at Terminal, meeting Hugh my Co driver there too.
That is if I can work out how to pack anything in an Exige :-)
Ref Hotel for Saturday night after 21:00 it moves to automatic access as per email from Mark G so I think we will all need codes. That said I am hoping we get to the Hotel for around 8:30
Bet your all counting down the seconds sure looks like a great road trip Just to add if you are wanting to meet up along the M20, Maidstone services are on J8 its the exit for Leeds Castle. We have got a little longer to wait than you guy's we are doing a road trip to Finland cant wait lol. We have 6 cars going 2 comming up from Spain to the UK & 1 thats meeting us in Germany will be attending the WRC whilst out there .
i live in tamworth so can go m6/m1 or m42/m40
i cant make my mine up lol
Hey Neil
I'v only driven the M42/M40 a couple of times and both times it was a nightmare. lane control was in effect and everything was tootling along at 40-45mph..
Correction on the meeting place: 2pm-3pm M20 J8 Maidstone services. (thanks Markee)
I'm told K.M. usually does very good price for track cover.

Last time I tried K.M they only did track cover if your main policy was with them. If like me it isn't then try these guys.
I get vertigo when I open my car door and accidently look down.
sure looks like a great road trip
cant wait lol. We have 6 cars going 2 comming up from Spain to the UK
