I was referring 100% to Simon :D   He's got three cars to chose from, all different enough to cope with any weather. 

Yes...but... B) ...it's very tempting but...I should really try to get the most out of my annual pass.
So come in April... and then with LoT in June :lol:

Because knowing Spa in March there will be 3 inches of snow and in April it will be 20 degrees :D

I'm not bringing the VX, I'm coming in the F Type. It was £125 which I thought was a fcuking liberty for 1hrs total travel time but the only other option was the ferry at £100 but takes 3 1/2 hrs both ways

No way I'd take the ferry, done it once before and it was a total faff. I've been looking for deals and that's the best I could see too. Not sure what train I'll be on but probably nearer lunchtime cos it's a good 4-5 hours to the tunnel from Swansea spending on the M25. Can I blag a pax ride in the Jaaaaggg? I used to have an S-Type R but couldn't afford the fuel mortgage!

Is the Spa any good? Expensive?

Its very good. If you stay in the Radisson just below it you get a discounted entry price, around £15 when I last went about 3 years ago, and you access it via the funicular direct from the hotel lobby. Inside there is a big pool for swimming and around the edges there are various jacuzzi type platforms built into it. Also there are different types of hydro massage showers. Theres a lazy river that takes you outside and back in. There's a section with beds under heat lamps with a great view out of a panoramic window. Saunas and steam rooms. There are various massages and treatments which are extra. Last time I went I had a neck and shoulder massage for about 40 minutes which was about £35 but prices will no doubt have gone up. Just seen its E20 for 3 hours now but there used to be a discount for hotel guests.
