Last time I was there (a mere 300 mile round trip) I met a chap who had come down from Scotland (5 hrs each way) for a stage 1 map on his S3.  :notworthy:

Google says 350 miles for me as well but I forgot to check the trip meter when I came back a couple of weeks ago.

I'll be looking to get my ED30 in hopefully in the next couple months.

It'll be 800 miles round trip for me.  Not the farthest anyway.  But a close enough contender.

Consider myself quite lucky! I'm only 26 miles away currently and my soon to be purchased new house is only 10 :jumping:

That was my mate. He has been to Niki 3 times. Hybrid fabia VRS, S3 powered Bora and a PD100 Polo which made 160Bhp which surprised him and Niki. It flowed so well.

I plan to head down for a stage 2+ once ive got all the parts fitted. Well worth the trip from Aberdeen.
