Good pics there. That Porsche Carrera GT is stunning! 
Was thinking of flying over again because the chances are I won't have another car to take over there to go round in

I know!!
I thought I'd kick up a bit of fuss saying that lol,
They're just not for me, I just think that there are alot better cars out there in their price product range,
And many people who buy them just seem to buy them for the fact that they can say they own a 'porsche',
I used to work at a 4 star country club so have had alot of experiences with porsche owners
,
Sorry if I've offended anyone!

haha nice one
If the Polo's didn't have such weak gearboxes I'd take it over but I'd rather wait til I get the next car so I know I'll get there and back ok (unless I wrote it off on the ring
)

I'd love to take the Golf around but i'd have to drive like a grandma as i'd be so worried about binning it and ending up with no car and bankrupt from hitting the Armco!

Dont you have to pay an awful lot also, if you crash your car there and damage the barriers?
Posted: Tue Feb 12, 2008 11:13 pm
Yep, you have to pay for damage to the armco per metre, 175 euros to be recovered from the track if needs be, and apparently 1000 euros for every hour the track's closed because of you.
Also if someone hits you as a result of you going to slow/being on the left instead of the right you can be liable for the damage to their car! It's not a place you go to without serious thought the first time!!
