M3, but it won't be a patch on the RS6 which I took down last year.
Four up with all our luggage in total comfort at fairly high speed was awesome. We were in convoy with an RS4, who lost his licence whilst there, an Aston Martin V8 from the mid 70s, a Lotus Esprit and two Caterhams.
This year it's my M3 and a Freelander.
How the mighty have fallen

Change of mind. Due to the M3 having a tiny boot (by comparison), I'm taking the RS6 to Le Mans.
I've convinced myself that due to conflicting weather forecasts I need to be prepared for all eventualities and the Avant's load capacity is ideal. As is the speed, the Bose, the etc etc.
You see what I'm doing here?
Despite only being allowed to keep one or other of my cars, I'm actually hanging on to both of them but only just. Let's see how long I can keep it up.

Wow. I used to race those years ago....fantastic.....but on the open road? Good luck.
Think you'll manage a toothbrush and sleeping bag.
If you get really stuck, and need anything taken down, I'm not too far from coulsdon.

Grub Street is nice but can suffer with motorway noise. I'm the other side of the A25 just off the golf course. Small world, my brothers in Coulsdon, Portnalls Road or Close or something like that.
I'm leaving early Thursday morning and back late Sunday evening as I'm back at work Monday. Camping at Mulsanne.
How about you?
