Default 4 x Carrera GT and 1 x 918 road trip

Well, after a bit of juggling, we have four Carrera GT's and one 918 Spyder heading down through Europe to Italy and back on a 2000 mile trip the third week in May. Mine is currently at RPM Technik in the UK (Manthey approved installer) having the KW suspension kit installed.

Have a drone and GoPro's so will be taking plenty of images and footage, my GT will pass 50000 miles during the trip - quite a milestone - I'll make sure I share plenty of updates on here three of us are on Insta and anyone interested can follow our antics.

Fantastic to see them on the road being enjoyed ;

The Carrera GT is a great car for long distance trips. The only thing it lacks is luggage space

I've had 3 X CGT's and 0 wives.
A record I probably own alone in the world.

From Luzern we took the Grimsel pass then down to Alba in Italy. Last night for all of us on Thursday, some headed down to Monaco for the GP, some to Lake Como, one home on Friday and I headed up to Le Mans for a track day on the Bugatti Circuit -600 mile Drive in a day- with the French Porsche Club for the 1973RS 50th.
Sadly had a CEL so didn’t venture out on track was an EVAP code which cleared when I got home with the reader. Four Carrera GT’s over 2000 miles in each and already planning a return trip in September. The GOAT 🐐 we all agreed .

0 wives is why you've had 3 CGTs.
