Won't you need your passport to get to Le Mans?

Obviously pics required

Maybe he'll have to give some proof it's "his" new bimmer

Are you racing it at lemans? Would you need sponsorship by Larsen's biscuits and Peniston Oils?

(First question is serious though...)

You may have more chance of getting a lift over with someone, rather than taking there car.

To be honest that's a good deal you got there, watch the French fuzz though, they get keener every year and not unknown for them to confiscate your car on the spot they will be out in droves one weekend in June.

Good point about the passport.

The bimmer people can borrow it will be a new 5 series.

Want my own car as I'll take my dad with me.

Don't has I worry about police as I'll be driving slow. My dad is a bad passenger. Plus there is a convoy of camper vans lol

More than welcome to use the car but the mrs well I can't loan her out. God knows I've tried lol.

Hiring off ere is only a thought as I don't mind paying 300 quid but I want locosters to gain from my cash :-) xxxx





Thanks

a lot of us have built our own cars with blood, sweat and tears. even though you would be insured and £300 is a fair price for hire of a car. i think most of us wouldn't be able to watch someone else drive off in our cars out of the country. Even though your insured the heart ache of something you have put so much work into getting destroyed just isn't worth the risk for £300. yes the insurance would replace my car if you crashed it but it wouldn't be the car i built.

i built my car from a pile of steel on the floor and i think a lot of the guys that have done that will have the same sentiments as i.

Blood Sweat & Tears

I won't let anyone apart from RTR and my best mate drive mine, I cannot see anyone who has a built a car from scratch lending it out...

£300 for hiring one sounds cheap, spend your money.....





It's not that i'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.....

and erm, why do you NEED one?
if your car isn't ready, either get it ready, or go again in it when it is ready!

kinda confused by why you NEED one

I thought most people wouldn't wanna lend it out. Hence why I'd looked at a proper hire. My thought was for people who maybe selling up etc.

I need one cos there is a group of us going and I want somert special better than my 5 series bimmer..,

My car won't be ready for then well not iva'd

Any who it was just a query and as people have said I wouldn't hire mine our either but if I was selling up I wouldn't mind.

A couple of things to bare in mind, when I looked at weakened 7 hire. The included mileage would not get me to Le mans and added to the cost significantly. does the weakened hire insurgence include cover for Europe.
