Total cost for Ferry/Ring/Hotel/Fuel?

Based on the last trip:

Ferry about £40 - 45 return (varies depending on ferry time, time of year etc)

'Ring €135 per 8 laps (£100)

Cabins £75 pps for 3 nights

Fuel 3 to 4 tanks (depends on laps and biskness of progress - you won't get 50+ from a diesel on the track, more like 20's)

Food £25 - £30 per day

Booze/Other entertainment :eek: - up to yourself

Heat magazines are free.

Everything pretty much as mathepac said, unless you choose to get the overnight ferry from Hull which makes it a much more relaxing trip.. it's only about 4hrs 30mins from Rotterdam to Nurgburg if done at a steady pace. But the ferry does cost abit more... £260 for 2 people 1 car, as it's overnight you do get a cabin though.

This is the option I went for on the last 'Ring trip and if we can go in Oct then we'll be doing the same again. :)

We found getting the ferry in Hull much more relaxing... and for us it makes the 'Ring only a 230 mile trip. :D

A bit off topic, but still very much ring related............

YouTube - Nurburgring

me and some mates at the Ring in June....3 x M3, a CTR, VR6, 911, Saab and a Honda SP2.

I'm sure I've seen that CTR somewhere (not to mention the dodgy looking bearded owner) before :rubchin: ;)

Looking at those dates it would actually be a longer trip than the one back in May.. :P

there is also a fair chance of going and not getting a lap in due to weather at that time of year....

My best trip was probably on the weekend before Christmas last year it was minus 2*c and completely empty apart from me, a mate in an elise, a BMW 320i, and some nutter in an M3, oh and Vredistein where tyre testing.

It was so nice to be so empty, no need to worry about a million GT3s trying to get past me.

Anyway, you'll have fun in October. Wish I was going then but I think my next and last 'ring trip this year is going to be end of next month.

We normally use this place when we go over, Martin is a top guy and a complete petrol head having worked on several magazines.

Burgstube Nürburg - Hotel at the Nürburgring - +49 170 8080256

He may negotiate on rates in the low season and midweek, breakfast is included in his rates and a lot of the ring photographers stash their mopeds and gear there so it's a chance to ask in the morning whereabouts they may be.

We paid 30 Euro per night B&B midweek at the end of May, there's a nice little bar inside, free wi-fi and it's right up on the hill just below the castle.
