Looking to take a 2 day trip to the Nurburgring this year I own a 23 plate VW Golf Clubsport & as part of the trip may well take it around the ring for a lap or two, I’m aware of the cost implication’s should I bin it , ( barrier repair charges, recovery etc etc ) I’d drive well within my limited skill confines anyway , just to tick it off the to-do list I’m looking for any advice whatsoever, from best view points , places to stay , watering holes to visit etc etc Any advice greatly appreciated
youre best off on pistonheads or if you struggle i can put you in touch with a mate who practically lives on the 'ring
I don’t need to be insured to drive around the ring ( I am fully aware my own policy will not cover me ) ,but I do need to accept full liability should an accident occur.
It is a legal requirement under German law to be validly insured. If you are caught driving the Ring uninsured, you will be prosecuted. And courts take a very dim view indeed.
Check it's open !! We've stopped twice as we were near and both times the ring was booked for corporate events.
