Right guys iv sorted everything out on paper so il try and get it all up on here. but basically the £209 is for 2ppl in 1 car so i need to get prices for people that are going up in there car by themselves.people with more than 2 people in there car will get more of a discount.Reply to your post

We need to LEAVE early THURSDAY THE 10th RETURNING whenever on MONDAY so thats a total of 5 DAYS...

option 1 is the shortest driving miles

.. COVENTRY TO PORTSMOUTH....140 miles Drive approx 2hours and 40 minutes....
Then PORTSMOUTH TO LE HAVRE FERRY CROSSING 5 hours and 30 mins on ferry....
LE HAVRE TO ARNAGE...157 miles..approx 2 hours and 33 minutes

TOTAL CAR MILEAGE 297 miles
TOTAL TIME ON ROAD 5 hours 15 minutes

THIS IS £255.00 Per Car With 2 people 3rd and 4th person would be £129.00

Fuelwise my 1275 does 140 miles off a full tank (£20.00) soo roughly £80 fuel there and back

Plenty of time to book it off at work and save up its gotta be done..we wont have to book until autumn anyway but the sooner the better!

so i need to know whos coming. how many per car and what route you would like to take.also if needed we could make it 4 days and leave the friday.
i will find out prices for single person cars.

you can make it as cheap as you want..we will go to the carrafour supermarket for beer and food and thats it if you want to go to the pub then its 6 euros a pint so most people stay on the campsite or track. theres also a town if people want to venture out.

NB. Prices below are our package prices from 2009. Please use these as a guide to our 2010 prices. A full list of 2010 prices will be available in the Autumn.

dont worry about the above its always the same sort of prices no major increases. i might be able to get cheaper tickets depending on how many my uncle gets and there vip/grandstand seats aswell.Reply to your post
