Nuerburgring track + Techno Classica, Essen
See above +
The Techno Classica at Essen from 6-9th April is an excellent, indeed the largest, show of classic cars (pre- and post-vintage) in Europe. Its like the show we did at the NEC, except bigger (13 Halls!). Next year VW are celebrating 30th birthday of the GTi at Essen too (my GTi's 30th too, nearly as old as me!). There will be a hall hired by VW with many VW Clubs attending, including the Mk1 Club of Germany. It may even be possible to have a Club stand. Naturally there will be Autojumbles and Cars For Sale (!)

Yay go Rajan!
You know im in…….. I'm the instigator :y:
This is going to be awesome!
Well I'm up for combining Wolfsburg and the Ring in the same trip. How far are they apart?
I've never been to Germany and always wanted to go.
If we organise it well enough we could do a proper tour of the fatherland.
Must be tonnes of stuff to do!
I would like to go to look round the Porsche meuseum/factory if they have one… I'm guessing Stuttgart. Is that on the way? ( ooops?. I?ve lets it slip I love Porsche?s )
Any other ideas peeps? :dontknow:

I think it really should be two seperate trips otherwise to take things in and do a nice tour not just a flying visit to places - it will take two weeks or at least 10 days and I dont know about anyone else but with so many other shows to book holiday for it will really stretch my holiday budget

I would love to go to both - I think I will fly to Essen though as my Mk1 definitely won't be ready in April.
However, if all goes well it should be ready for July, and I will drive to the Ring. That's my cunning plan anyway
