So Who's Heading To Le-Mans Next Week?


Buzz Billsberry

Recommended Posts

Just wondered which of you fine people and your Westfields will be heading down to the 24??

Former Westfield owners are travelling down on Thursday 14th June & picking up the 10.15am Ferry. Some of our team will be on the chunnel as well.

The cars in our squadron:

Red TVR Tamora: Buzz

Light blue Chimaera: Dave Belfield

Black Porsche Gay Lord Boxster: Muttley

Red VXR 220 Turbo: Marcus Mayhem

Silver VW Beetle sorry Porsche Carrera 4 convertible: Barry (Herbie) Ashcroft

Metallic Blue BMW tourer330i: Bananaman

Then after the race weekend the 2 TVR’s and the VXR are heading off down to the Loire Valley for the rest of the week.

What ever you're planning I hope the weather keeps a sensible head on and y'all have a great time!

Give us a toot if you see us!

Got a phone call a few years ago and the voice said:

I'm in Le Havre and supposed to be on a weeks cooking course, but it's cancelled, can I spend a week with you?"

I said it would be OK and gave him directions to the roundabout at Pouance and asked him what car to look out for when I met him.

" a modified VW"

So I go to meet him and he's in a Porsche GT3 RS

Unfortunately work commitments dictate that its a no show for me this year.

I have tried to post a link to Pistonheads - Le Mans forums which shows my Westie in action leaving the traps(I mean onto the peage) at Boulogne, but the link doesnt work for some reason.

There is a chap who sits at the peage at Boulogne on the Thursday taking pictures of the Brits and their cars heading to Le Mans and posts them on a website. He has literally hundreds of pictures from the past few years. Worth a look at the site just to see some of the expensive machinery taking the trip.

Anyway hope everyone who is going this year enjoys it and all being well I will be making the trip from Glasgow to La Sarthe in the Westie next year.

Heading down on Thursday (euro tunnel crossing) hope to be at circuit by about 10pm beer in hand! :)

Norm's BBQ sounds interesting, had thought about a detour and using the Gites for extended holiday may be next year.

Traveling in A3, you can get more goodies in the boot!
