86 Dach 2025 in Cologne

[banpei]

You can hitch a ride there with me, but my plan is to spend the weekend in Cologne with my wife and daughter as well. However, they want to arrive a bit later and opted to take the train instead.

If the KE20 is drivable, I'll take that as well. When it's done it's half an ae86 anyway

You mean half an AA63?
(that's more special btw... )

Actually, only the head is from the celica, block was replaced due to a snapped off oil pressure sender.
RWD 4AG + T50 + AE86 front struts.

I appreciate the offer, if Im not staying the night myself I will have to look out for a ride back.

86 Dach is less than 2 weeks from now.
My plans are still the same: leave around 7:00 from Hilversum, drive to Ede via A1/A30, drive towards Arnhem via A12, take the A50 towards the A73, drive the A73 all the way until the German border and then follow the 61 till Cologne.
You can find the route here:

My planned stops are:
Stop 1 - 7:45-8:00
The parking lot of Esso De Buunderkamp on the A12 (direction towards Arnhem)

Stop 2 - 8:45-9:00
The parking lot of Laplace De Wuust (near Venray) on the A73 (direction towards Venlo)

The last leg is about 1 hour and 18 minutes, so we should hopefully arrive somewhere around 10:30.

I'll join you at the parking near Venray

My comfortable driving silver car started using lots of oil recently (I'm guessing valve seals) so I'm taking the horrible green one … It seems to work now. First long drive, lets hope it stays that way My average speed will be around 100 km/h because above that my ears start to bleed. Feel free to leave me behind once everyone crosses the border to the unlimited autobahn.
