Which direction's everyone coming from?

Do we want to turn up 'in formation', as it were?

2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)

I'll be going down M69, onto A46, onto A45 then immediately off at Ryton onto A423 to princethorpe, then onto B4455, then hang a left to Gaydon

But i'm open to persuasion, should a convoy oppurtunity arise :cheesy:

Is the convoy idea to take into account that a good proportion of us may need assistance when we inevitably break down?

I will be going A2 Strykow to Poznan, E30 Poznan to Berlin, E30 Berlin to Hannover, E30 Hannover to Bad Oeyenhausen, E34 Bad Oeyenhausen to Eindoven, A67 Eindhoven to Antwerp,E17 Antwerp to Gent,A10 Gent to Brugge, E40 Brugge to Dunkirk,A20,M20,M25,M40 and then letting the Citroen sat nav guide me the last couple of miles.

Total distance 1790Km if we dont venture off route at any point, anyone want to tag along? :lol:

Then on to sunny Manchester Newcastle Leeds and possibly Cornwall and Suffolk on the way back down, Im expecting a total holiday distance of well over 7000 kms in the space off 2 weeks, that should give the C5 a good run out.

Pssst!
That's the ticket Disco! (Pop round for a 'mini meet', kidnap him & bring him to Gaydon anyway). Brilliant! :mrgreen:

If we held him for ransom, maybe one of the other 'nothern folk' would have to show up too, to err repatriate him.

I can see that 12-visitor discount is as good as 'in the bag'. 8)
