Correct - filming whilst driving is not allowed, even if your passenger is filming... however, if the marshals don't see.....

Well done Tone - you really are the man - great info for those coming to the Ring. Can i just ask a quickie? How much is the BMW breakdown service?? Youve always talked to me about ADAC, which is what i was considering taking out - but what do you use and/or recommend?? As i remember when i had my CSL, a lot of people used to complain about what a wasted of time BMW recovery was???

dxb335d · 04-01-2009, 05:38 PM

Also Tone, regarding what Steve just said? I have BMW thingy dont I as my car is under 3 years old. They come and collect ya if you break down?

Ramppo · 04-01-2009, 05:57 PM

Guys just came in to my mind, is anybody takeing their girlfriend with them to this trip or is this only for guys?
As i`am just comeing back from roadtrip holiday with my girl so it`s not like i have a choice

Hoops · 04-01-2009, 06:02 PM

Well The Red Baron is taking Carlos, does that count!!??? On a serious note i dont think there will be many gf or wives on this trip by the sounds of it - that said she is more than welcome - we need someone to hold all our helmets!!!!

Ramppo · 04-01-2009, 06:14 PM

Okay, in that case maybe it`s better that i go alone on this trip

You should have BMW Emergency Services already on your M3, as it's less than three years old and it would have come with 3yrs of EMS from factory... check with the dealer...

BMW recovery is now very good - I've unfortunately had to use it twice, and both times was fantastic. ADAC is great in Germany, but not really necessary if you already have BMW services. If you breakdown on the 'Ring, then ADAC will come to your rescue as they have an "under-the-table" deal with the Nurburgring - it's a fixed fee to toe you to the carpark (I think €180) and from there you can get BMW to come to you...

Bring your girlfriend - the last trip we did from the forum, Paul brought his girlfriend along and she ended up really enjoying herself. Although we're car nuts, the group of people going are extremely funny and it really is a laugh...

Hoops · 04-02-2009, 08:37 AM

Thanks Tone - i kind of assumed i had something with BMW that comes with the car - but i will double check its all in my name and up to date etc before we leave.

XKaLiBaR · 04-02-2009, 09:08 AM

Bloody hell, thats basically £600 - would it be cheaper for you and Carlos to book single rooms???

XKaLiBaR · 04-02-2009, 09:12 AM

Thats with breakfast though, at a rate of 16 euros per person, per day

Hoops · 04-02-2009, 09:26 AM

Oh, that makes it the deal of the century then!!! Get it booked and stop faffing about, otherwise you'll be sleeping in your car!!!!

XKaLiBaR · 04-02-2009, 09:34 AM

You dont think thats a lot of money then for the room? 16 euros for a breakfast, which contains some eggs, toast and beans is a bit steep imo. Well im waiting on carlos to get back to me before i book it, his phones off

Why ?! Right at this moment, a double room is €330 for four nights at the Mercure, not including breakfast...

Twin room is €410 for four nights, no including breakfast...

And it's on the website - don't know what website you're looking at ??
