There has been alot of road works between Rouen & Le Mans the last couple of years, I think its a new AutoRoute.
Will it be complete in time for this year? |

Anyone know of any companies that still have coach tours to Le Mans available (with race tickets)?

Try Hoverland, we went with them in 2003, and they were much better than Page and Moy in my opinion.

We are booked on the friday 4.30pm Dover - Calais Ferry, so arrival approx 6.30pm local time in Calais. How long approximately to drive to Le Mans from there ? Also, will i hit lots of expensive toll roads, or can they be avoided ? Thanks in advance.

Depends on what you are driving, but it takes us about 5 hours.

I'm an MRI recommender - travelled with them first in 92 (when they were still Chequers) and then again in 93 and 98. Apart from the lousy tour guide we had in 98 (who had never been to Le Mans before - like the coach driver.... doh!), it was still very good.

The toll roads will come to approx €10, well worth it for high speed, traffic free travelling.
The party will still be in full swing at midnight. |

Just emailed MRI to see if they have any tour places and tickets available, fingers crossed.
Will there be a TT meet up at Le Mans? |

Possibly. It depends how quickly I can rouse the other 5 from their slumbers in Paris on Saturday morning. How long does it take to drive from Paris to Le Mans?
