LM24 Le Mans & Hospitality

akela · 17 Feb 2004, 01:18 (Ref:876453)

Hi all,

First Time Poster etc...

I am planning my annual pilgrimage to Le Mans and am getting a bit long in the tooth for the balls out camping experince and am looking to take things a touch easier and 'Invest' in Hospitaliy this year.

I have been doing research and noticed that there are several operators in the market place and prices ranging from about £75 rising to over £1000.

Does anyone have any experience of these operators? I am looking for references and to spend about £250 a head for an all in deal.

Please Advise.

Clive

We run an exclusive hospitality for about 30 people, all mod cons including satellite television and great company. We have been doing this for a few years now and are known for the good company. PM me if you want more information.

I must say, Liz's looks rather nice.

Others you might consider are NotorRacingInternational (MRI) who have a tent....but bigger scale with food, drivers and a variety of means of getting there. Similarly Page & Moy, Airtrack etc (pick up a copy of Autosport)

If you win the lottery or belong to the Russian Mafia/Triad/ Yardies etc., then try MarquePark as well.

Liz · 19 Feb 2004, 21:24 (Ref:879798)

We can't promise you any drivers, although you never know. But we do have food, beer, other kinds of drink, and other amenities available including deals on ferry crossings and help with your camping arrangements.

Drivers?? What drivers??

**Aysedasi** · 20 Feb 2004, 15:07 (Ref:880511)

I don't know anything about prices, but I'd like to give my good friends Val and Alan a little plug if you're still looking for something.....

I have travelled with MRI twice and I have had no problems with them at. In fact if I wasn't travaling SL/Nordic Tours I would have used them again. There website is http://www.motorracinginternational.uk.com/

and i heartily recommend them because of all the excellent le mans photography in their brochure....

It is not a travel package that I am after - When it comes to Hospitality MRI, Airtrack etc seem very expensive and do not have a good reputation.

I have heard good things about the operation Liz is involved with and am investigating that route. I figure that if I can get an open bar, all my meals, somewhere to chill out and a camping permt (and reserved space) all for £250 a head in a relaxed friendly enviroment then so much the better.

So it looks like I will be meeting Liz in June.

Just to know : is there a GS ticket and the general entrance in the price, or not ?

You may wish you had again this year my friend, it takes a very special kind of person to share a car with SL and his one pair of socks

looking forward to this year more than I have for a few years, there sems to be a bit of buzz once again about sportscars.

**Aysedasi** · 21 Feb 2004, 13:33 (Ref:881349)

So the rumours aren't true - Simon does wear socks?

Nordic · 21 Feb 2004, 14:56 (Ref:881385)

He does wear socks, but not with his high heals

His wardrobe always benefits from a couple of months away, having said that, there was one shirt last year.........

Be afraid RD be very RD afraid.

No they are not but the the marquee us truely trackside so a GS ticket is not required. I can get them to supply a general ticket at cost..

What is included is:

Open Bar ie Unlimitted free drinks
6 Meals
Access to there marquee (which I understand is well undersubscribed hence loads of room)
Sat TV

I am sure Liz can confirm these details.

**Aysedasi** · 21 Feb 2004, 19:56 (Ref:881499)

Yep, there's plenty of room for a peg........

A member asked to me this week-end... I sent him to you... hope you get the deal !

BTW, leave an e-mail adress or something, just in case... except if you visit the forum each day...

But don't worry, we've learned the stuff : Accomodations on the spot = Gilles !

pajero-pete · 9 Apr 2004, 21:31 (Ref:935492)

There is a company offering a 20% discount on there Camping & Hospitality at this years race to Pajero Owners anyone know about them?

The deal looks on the surface awesome but anyone know anything about these guys Click here for the details.

Gilles · 15 Apr 2004, 16:12 (Ref:940606)

UPDATE

I also have opportunities for LM Classic in July !!!!

pajero-pete · 24 May 2004, 08:57 (Ref:980924)

Finally got round to booking my camping & hospitality today and got what I consider to be a great deal.

1 x Camping Permit
2 x Full on Hospitality complete with an Open (read FREE) Bar and 6 Meals.

Total Price was £400 - I asked the guy on the phone if they were full and he said they had just 4 camping permits left. He also pointed out that they can guarntee that if it rains I will be able to get in there Marquee - Unlike Bloody MRI in 2001 (Grrrrr).

If anyone one wants to take advantage of this call them on 0870-7651240, but I wouldn't hang on too much longer as they will no doubt sell out real soon now.
