Don't worry about it. I'll be there in my black Xantia - nice looking car, but will never win any prizes, but that's not why I'm going.

I have an idea Jaap. If a ferry crossing is expensive, why not fly (if it's cheap) and borrow a car when over here?

Borrow a car, hmm well I could ask to borrow a burned out Laro, or a Hyace without an ignition lock, maybe even a Honda Civic automatic. Or a Ford escort. That's it. But first I will have to go to the owners in Swindon area..Wouldn't mind visiting those folks anyway and they are used to having the XM parked in between their autmobiles.

ps. I don't know anyone elkse in the UK apart from Robert who is on the wrong side of the Irish sea.

we'll see, the Irish revenue paid me some money back today:)

I would lend you a car, but I aint got an XM ready, and Im about 10 mins from holyhead too (Well the farm is where everything is)

How long are you intending to be over for, I could lend the Cobalt XM and am near enough EMA to be useful.

Would just need to ensure it's insured one way or another.

Genie mac, holy mackrels, you're all very kind! Very impressed! Gotta talk to Liz! We're pretty used to that 2.15 AM ferry and pretty used to sleeping for a couple of hours at the beach opposite the Alu factory in Holyhead, EMA is that Manchester Airport

East Midlands airport Jaap.

That's an offer..Wills Cobalt XM.

Ah, Penrhos Beach... Yes... Nice.

Know it well..

Well, I cant beat wills Offer, well, unless you could insure a value of £20k, then Id lend you the V6 24v S1 Manual...

Penrhos Beach is where the captain loves to play ball..Will Cobalt XM, I should have paid more attention...checking prices at the moment
