Hi all,

Planning my 4 th visit to the hallowed tarmac in 2018 and theres a possibility i may be taking the V50 ...

Anyone else making the trip in 2018?

Previous trips have been in a Clio 182, BMW 330 and Clio 197, so the V50 will be a much more relaxed affair.

I am planning on going 18-20May plus a massive volvo meet (Treffen) in Eindhoven on the 21st.
Planning to hopefully have quite a few volvos there, plus a fleet of Polestars from without Europe.

Will head over at some point this year. If you can take the time off the mid-week openings are brilliant. I went out a couple of times on a Thursday night and it felt like I was the only one on there (bar some guy in a Renault Alpine who kept appearing and getting in my way).

Went last year in Mk7 Golf GTD. Handled well - everything else was pretty disappointing.

Wouldn't worry too much about that yet. The Austrians are taking the Germans to the ECJ for unfair tax for their toll plans.. LoL
True! But I believe that the EU is considering charge by Km at a point in future...

Looks interesting....

I seem to be spending quite a bit of time in Belgium of late, and not far from the ring either!
