Germany Trip - 2013 - report
Dear forum readers,
Well your raving reporters has once again battled through France, crossed Belgium, driven through Holland and crossed deep into friendly territory. After numerous problems We are once again at Edersee and gazing longingly one manual S8s, W12 D2s, 5.2 litre V10s amongst other things. There are fewer 8s here than before, but the venue and atmosphere are still great. The trip out wasn't without its usual problems, by we managed to stay together for longer than usual until a weak bladder forced a division of forces, followed by a major traffic jam that again split the brave few until we were spread over half of northern Germany and arrived from different directions at different times. I'm now on my 3rd Grossen beer and outside a very nice steak. A photo of the aluminium here on my arrival. Darren and Refro an hour behind.
