400+ bhp will be insane in an astra VXR!!! but then again so would a 2.0t in a corsa vxr lol! My gearbox is ready for replacing, i used to think the m32 choco box was just a myth we are waiting for my mate to get his holidays into his work for the weekend! (he works for 911 recovery and they do nurburgring trips!) but we will be going as a group so I will let you know as soon as I find out mate.
Dave you should come, you will have a good time regardless but it would be more enjoyable with a sporty wee car lol

all depends mate the more passengers the less it will cost. roughly 300-400 per person all in if you had 2 people in one car, or about 700 for you on you're own. Iam taking one person where as my other mate has nearly a full car. Ill get up some rough guide prices tonight after i play fives. I would rekon the more people we get the more chance I have to bargin with prices!! there is also a flat to rent beside the nurburgring and it sleeps 15 at a cost of 15euros per person haha (45 for the first 2 people then 10 for every additional)

Fed up with corsa b's? I have said that before lol! I have had 6 of them and itching for
another! would love a turbo!
Thats cool eck! currently weighing up the option of do we get the boat from newcastle or dover? dover is more driving but far cheaper ferry wise! newcastle is less driving but crazy prices for the ferry
Like dover price i £49 return but adds another 400miles onto the drive
newcastle is £349 overnight stay, 12 hour trip and 400 less miles

you just need to weight up the ferry prices with the cost of fuel you'll use driving the extra miles.
