I'm not too bothered if it's the ferry or the eurotunnel and will go with the majority.

Although, considering how tired we all were this year, the ferry would maybe be the better option for getting a break from driving.

How about a mod (T ?) sets up a poll to see who would prefer Ferry or Eurostar ? just to get a feeling for opinions.

Has anyone been on the Eurostar in a Coupe?

I've heard that getting onto the second platform could be a problem with lowered Coupes and also with the turning circle of a 20vt.

I've no idea personally, just wondering if anyone else knows?

Apparently you also have to leave your car in gear and the handbrake off, as well as leaving your windows halfway down?

I know I won't be leaving my Coupe alone with the windows down!

Yes, the car goes on fine, less of a gradient than some ferries and you stay with the car during the crossing so security is not a problem.

I don't travel well on ferries as some of you may have noticed so tunnel works for me. Having been on the tunnel a couple of times already, I'd choose it any day over a ferry. If the cost difference is minimal between ferry or tunnel then the tunnel takes away the feeling of travelling across the channel if you know what I mean smile

There is a filling station at the circuit, yes and from what I remember, wasn't any different in price to outside the circuit.

There probably is diesel there, but can't confirm for definate.

There is also a filling station 1/4 mile away from circuit entrance.

Fuel is dam expensive when your doing £75 an hour in!
