Sarnie Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Anyone wanna come see the GT-R??? Thought I'd start a separate thread for this to see if there is any interest. The show is from the 6th to the 16th of March. As the weekend is bound to be the busiest time I was thinking of going on a weekday, but can go anyday really. Official site is here: http://www.salon-auto.ch//en/ Flights are approx £40 each way from b'ham (not looked into other airports yet) Tickets are CHF14 (about £6.50) Accomadation is from about £40-£50 per night (arrive sunday night and leave tuesday morning so two nights) So all in its probably gonna cost about £180 to fly from b'ham, two nights in Geneva and entry into the show. Obviously all details like departure airport and dates are changeable to fit in with what ever people want to do. So who fancies it? Sinbad? Jay?* *Louis, don't put your name down unless your actually gonna come
sinbad Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 You know im in! Preferably from the 10th onwards for me.
Sarnie Posted January 12, 2008 Author Posted January 12, 2008 You know im in! Preferably from the 10th onwards for me. Are you ok with going in the week? And what about airports?
AndySpak Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Hopefully I'll be in Chamonix skiing again that week so its a "no" from me. Have fun
sinbad Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 You know im in! Preferably from the 10th onwards for me. Are you ok with going in the week? And what about airports? Fine through the week. Id prefer manchester, liverpool if pos. Bt if a few go and there all happy to fly from birmingham then i'll go from there.

From a selfish point of view I'd choose bham as I can nearly see the runway from my house
Zedrush Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 gonna check work on monday if i can get time of, found out my friend may be working at one of the stands so will crash at hers whilst over there
Sarnie Posted January 12, 2008 Author Posted January 12, 2008 What accommodation have you found Liam? here I ain't bothered about a plush hotel so the cheaper the better imo
GC350z Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Cheers mate. Really want to go but not sure I can wing it.
Sarnie Posted January 12, 2008 Author Posted January 12, 2008 Cheers mate. Really want to go but not sure I can wing it. Just let us know what days/dates you can do and I'm sure we can work around it mate

Just let us know what days/dates you can do and I'm sure we can work around it mate A weekend would be no problem but I hate large crowds. I'll have a word in work next week and see what I can do.

I hate crowds too mate. Just lets us know asap as I think the prices of the flights are going up dailly and the rooms will be getting booked up

cavey Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 I Would Love TO Come, Will Have To Sort It Out With Work
Zedrush Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 I Would Love TO Come, Will Have To Sort It Out With Work Let us know or pm me if you go mate as we will probably leave from same airport, stanstead i think
Sarnie Posted January 12, 2008 Author Posted January 12, 2008 Ok so we have 1) Sarnie 2) Sinbad 3) GC350z (trying to wangle it off work) 4) Zedrush (trying to wangle it off work) 5) Wanna350z (trying to wangle it off work) 6) Cavey (trying to wangle it off work) Anyone else? Is it possible for those who are wanting to come to confirm if they can get it off work by the end of next week?
GC350z Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 I'll confirm by the end of the week. Don't forget if I can make it I'll be flying from Dublin. So accommodation and location are the only things I need to know. I understand the show is near the airport. Where abouts is accommodation in relation to it?

Where abouts is accommodation in relation to it? yeah no worries mate, I think we may all end up flying from different airports anyway. i think zedrush and Cavey, if they go, may fly from Stansted and Sinbad will go from somewhere oop north Makes no odds really, my flight was only 1hr 20 mins yesterday I ain't gone into too much detail about the accomodation yet until we have a confirmed date. Geneva don't seem that big so I don't think that should be too much of a problem
Sarnie Posted January 12, 2008 Author Posted January 12, 2008 Just read that the new G will be unveiled at the show Plus a TDI R8 ?????
GC350z Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Just read that the new G will be unveiled at the show Plus a TDI R8 ????? TDI R8? That cant be right. Anyway I've decided I don't like it now that Audi have started using the LED strip on all their cars.

I like the R8 but its not individual enough imo
