Ben Seabrook 4 Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Hi is there anyone who could give me a rough sort of guide as to how much this trip will cost as i have always wanted to go any help is appreciatedBit tricky mate but i guess the ferry is about £70 at the mo - it depends on whether you want to camp or stay in the hotel ( lots of debate about this ) and then petrol will be I guess about £200 and then food and beer money on top - so around about £500 I would guess as a minimum.

andylaurence 0 Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 cool' date=' we can make a snowman!!A bit of vr6 drifting fun![/quote']Drifting? Only if you have a Syncro!Cheers,Andylol not strictly true!!Handbrake turns and lift of oversteer don't count as drifting! You can get it sideways like that though. You'll be more sideways than me, I suspect. I won't rag my 330d round, and the traction control keeps the rear end in check quite well (yes, I've tried). If I rent one of the RWD DRTs, I may be slightly sideways, but that's never recommended in a car you're not familiar with!Cheers,Andy Link to post Share on other sites
