I know Neil Matthews at Speed Chills.

He is local to me and came as an Exhibitor at a charity event I am part of.

We are staying in Chanteloup and heading off on the Wednesday to get there for Thursday. If you see a 110 with a bright red trailer and a roof tent on it then that will be me.

We are 'Not the Bentley Boys'.

Ill make sure and bring my def2 tshirts Smile ===================================

Ill look out for you guys, although I'm joining the group late with a 2am ferry crossing Friday morning
Guess all defenders will stand out at Le Mans as there can't be many
My group are taking the Censored out of me, but seeing as how cool defenders are at the moment I bet people stop to look
I keep telling them all guys fancy a defender but they just don't get it
Three of them still happy for the lift down though !

We are leaving ahead of the pack as we won't keep up with the Porsche' Aston's and the various M-Sport BMW's.

We have opted out of the Speeding Fine kitty due to evident lack of speeding in the defender compared to the tarmac tyrants. ===================================

I went through Rouen in October, and then agin in early December last year heading south and I don't recall any diversions? Or did I miss that bit? Embarassed (I did however find that a Discovery can't fit under the underpasses Rolling Eyes ) An engine to TDi for!

Will keep an eye out for you Steve.

I'm going down in my mate's 370z, so should be a bit more fun than a Defender
