possibly not a 'road' trip but ryanair -prestwick-stansted-friedrichshafen is do-able, coming in at around £150. I went last year but i was living just up the road which was handy, its well worth a trip at least once, always some big names hanging around and loads of freebies and deals...

Driving and cars is my other hobby so would have to incorporate a trip to the Nordschleife of course. Flying is too easy ;)

Doubt I'll be going, supposed to be saving up.

Quick flight check as akastana said... £130 all in.

The Nordschleife is not close. About 4 - 6 hours drive (traffic dependant). It is 50km from where I live (Nurbergring, not EB).

Yeah but it would save driving back up here to dive down again another time ;)
