I've made contact with someone that worked for VW/Audi in Germany for 20 years or so and therefore has some fantastic contacts.
Frido - I'll let you know, but I'm ok at the moment thanks.

are you going to let all these crazy long-distance-driving A2 drivers know where all the great roads are? neckarsulm is if i'm not mistaken bei heilbronn: and isn't that "up north" for you?
greetings from odenwald

Just to keep you all updated - I have asked Lucas and Frido to start organising a trip to Neckarsulm for sometime early next year, including hotels, ferries, the tunnel etc.
As soon as I or they have more information, we'll let you know...

I have contacted someone in Neckarsulm, they will make their tour plan in December, and said it shurely is possible to visit the plant, but we should check back in December.
We also discussed the possibility of a 3-day event including a visit to the Factory and Museum at Ingolstadt.
Bye, Frido
