Run along the same lines as the highly successful and most enjoyable Château Run of a couple of months ago:

- Early morning drive to Chunnel (separate RV's en route if required - see, am in French mode already!)
- 2-hour hoon from Calais to Château - whilst it's still light
- 5-course lunch (followed by copious amounts of wine - optional!)

Late afternoon educational sessions*:
1. "Car polishing the AMG Merc way" - AMG Merc
2. "Colour coordination 101" - V6 GTO
3. "How to Pull with a Noble" - Mr Noble
4. "Things I don't Know about Noble" (including Test-me Session) - Joust
5. "It's not fast Enough" (including live demonstration) - Obes
6. "Do it Sideways the Doctor Paul Way" - Paulcundy

*or more wine(both optional)

- Evening Dinner and (copious amounts of wine - optional)
- Well deserved kip (necessary!)
- Early Breakfast followed by 2-3hour hoon inland southwest towards coast then north along coastal roads to chunnel - find lunch en route
- Compulsory hoon around M25 home

Numbers would be strictly limited and on a first-come-first served, Noble-only basis (eg: the Château we visited before only had 12-15 rooms).

Dates - suggest Saturday/Sunday in November.

Ball-park costs (pricey compared to UK option): hotel + food - £200 + chunnel £65 + fuel (+ fines!)

Just a thought and may be too late in the year to arrange well enough. Also, am not setting myself up a Project Manager elect but will share with another/others.

Comments s'il vous plait?

Sounds lovely, but I'm not buying a Noble just for this

Depending on date, sounds good. Perhaps go out Friday night and spend 2 nights there?
