2011 Testimonials
Below are a selection of testimonials from teams who took part in the 2011 Motoscape Rallies:
Team: Gutbusters
"Amazing fun, a must do for any one. The last week has been mint, a real experience. Not only the driving, meeting new people but I found the challenges made you more cultured. A real good way of getting you off the main roads and seeing some local sights. If I could I would have spent longer on the Stelvio Pass. What an experience!!!
On the whole a great route across Europe. Not to be missed by any one who has the chance to see it. I have no complaints whatsoever and I’m fairly sure you’ll be seeing me on Road Trip 2012. Thanks lads for an amazing week!!!"
Aiden Wilson
"From registering in May and completing tonight, the whole organisation of the rally has been brilliant. Peter, Paul and Mark are doing a very good job. The rally itself was fantastic. The route was excellent and obviously well researched. I will be recommending Motoscape to anyone who asks me how it was. Can’t think of any complaints. I would suggest people bring wives and kids on it, as it is something anybody would enjoy. Good value for money, better than a normal holiday. Thanks lads!"
Ashley Waterfield
Team: Just Married (Raised £1000 for St Clare Hospice)
"Brilliant. It was great to do this for a second year running. The organisation is fantastic, with the organisers taking the time to make everyone happy. I like the amount of effort put into the daily briefings with ideas of places to visit as well as direct routes to the next hotel. ‘Motoscape Rally’ is a great way to meet people and have fun."
Scott Mackenzie
"The rally has been a fabulous honeymoon! The Alps driving has definitely been my favourite – you forget you have so much breathtaking scenery so close to the UK. Great organisation but enough flexibility to turn it into our holiday and get everything we want to done. Everyone on the rally has been brilliant and I haven’t felt at all left out by knowing nothing about cars. Really good fun and a great way to start our life together – not too may arguments either."
Nici MacKenzie
Team: 27 club Trippers
"Great fun! A roller coaster of emotions. Really good experience."
James Carr
"Just wanted to thank you again for the great rally experience. We really enjoyed it, A+ for organising it. My first rally. Best driving experience so far. Will recommend it to other people."
Johnny Rusu

Team: Avez-vous un Haynes Manual? (Raised £300 for Prince's Trust)
"A whistle stop tour of some of the finest scenery Europe has to offer with opportunities to take in as much or as little as you like. Great fun and has made me want to return to countries I had never considered before."
Paul Watson
"This was my first rally and I’ve had a cracking week. A one day break or a short commute may have benefitted from a lethargy perspective. All in all I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the experience."
Mark Goddard
"Excellent – real eye opener to how far you can travel around Europe in only a few days. Good group of people from all backgrounds."
Mark Oldroyd
Team: V4B4
"Awesome, especially if like me you’ve hardly travelled Europe before."
Tim Taylor
"How can you improve on perfection?"
Geoff Taylor
Team: The Beer View Mirrors (Raised £1400 for I.F.A.W.)
"Excellent fun. Will come again! Thanks."
Nick Clark
"Very good roads and I will be on another rally with you. Do we get discount and loyalty stamps??"
Steve Clague
Team: 4 Chavs in a Scooby
"Good, stayed in some really nice places. Stelvio pass was really good and Slovenia was a really stunning place."
Matthew Lamb
"Saw some really nice places that otherwise would not have visited. In hindsight would probably just go to Bologna rather than Prague."
Edward Howison
"Awesome, loved it! So many great memories."
Christopher Pearce
Team: Starship Enterprise
"A very enjoyable unique experience. It actually costs a fair amount all things considered but it’s worth it. A good bunch of different but like-minded people."
Jack Finnegan
"We had a wonderful time. The experience met our expectations and I would certainly recommend the experience to friends. I enjoyed the various countries and scenery we passed through. I appreciated the advice from Peter and Paul about the different driving cultures and rules and regulations in the different countries.
This will be useful for family driving in Europe in the future. The Stelvio pass was awesome!! Bled and Slovenia a pleasant surprise, a country that I know nothing about. All in all a wonderful and memorable experience."
Gary Finnegan
"No yobs, all appeared to have good attitude. Would advise others to come."
Peter Anderson
Team: MacMillan Rice Rocket (Raised £1000 for MacmIllan)
"I came on my own knowing I would meet some like-minded people and just to see some of Europe and drive some fantastic roads. I was worried there would be loads of lads just to out race and get legless but everyone had fun and knew where to draw the line. On the whole a wonderful experience, tiring but worth it.
I appreciate all the hard work the boys put in with the organising, the challenges, the support and creating a relaxed friendly environment. I will come again (hopefully with a co driver) as soon as the missis will let me."
Jan Olsson
Team: Failing Mexican Tigers
"Absolutely fantastic. Had a really good time and what a great bunch of people. Thank you for such good organisation. Personally I’m shattered but what a great week. I’m gutted the week is over. I really enjoyed the Stelvio pass but the Vrsic pass in Slovenia was the best road I’ve ever been on. From the moment you leave the motorway and get into the strides, it is amazing.
Would extend the day to Bled so teams can do Venice and the pass, possibly explain both are amazing."
Andrew Holdsworth
Team: Arthur Ant Hill Mob (Raised £3330 for Alexander Devine Children’s Hospice)
"Fantastic. I’ve loved every minute of it, even stood on the side of the motorways. Brilliant fun, a real challenge, especially in a black cab that only does 60 mph. Thanks guys!"
Julia Ockenden
"Fantastic, exhausting, worth every minute. I’ve met some brilliant people and will miss not seeing them. Well organised and loads of fun."
Rachael Bailey
Team: V Team
"Excellent. Best holiday ever! Very well organised. I will be coming on a rally again!"
Tom Wilkinson
"All in all excellent experience. Very well planned down to the finest detail. All the team were very approachable and very easy to talk to. The challenges were a welcome addition to the trip, however it would be nice to somehow get more people involved.
I’m very pleased, this was my first ever banger rally. I have gained priceless experience, gained new friends and all for good value for money. On my part I only wished we raised more for charity, given some extra time that is what I would have liked to do. Thanks Motoscape."
Dan Cushing
Team: When You Wish Upon a Car (Raised £1000 for Cancer Research)
"We’ve had a fantastic week, we’ve laughed lots, got lost, met fantastic people, seen some amazing places and really enjoyed the challenges.
Fancy dress was fun and everything has exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much for all your hard work and organisation. Has been a fantastic Disneytastic week!"
Rachel Peacock
"Amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed it."
Jessica Owen
Team: Me – N – Im
"Really enjoyed my first Motoscape rally. Met some great people, drove on some great roads and generally had a ball. Cheers."
Steve Wood
"The dogs danglys!"
Phil Smith
Team: 3 Idiots Abroad (Raised £750 for Dudley group of hospitals maternity ward)
"Awesome!! Well organised, fantastic experience! P.s it’s a race not a rally!!!"
Andy Smith
"Fantastic experience. Would definitely come on another as soon as I can get permission from the wife, realistically two years at least or I bring the wife!!!! Will definitely recommend… made good friends and gutted its over!!"
Lyndon Mottram
"We all (both teams) had a fantastic time, West Coast Knackers were heavily depressed on their return to the UK knowing that we were all carrying on for a few more days, they experienced what we are all now calling PMB post motoscape blues :-)
We all thought the hotels were great and well situated and with the number of entrants you did well keeping everyone within a decent distance of each other and the morning meetings. We did think that there was quite a bit of motorway driving which could have been put down a bit and maybe a more detailed route suggestion in the pack could assist people in avoiding too much motorway. Apart from that we genuinely have no other areas that we felt needed improvement apart from the obvious microphone and driver training that you've arranged for Pete already!! Really hoping to get booked in for next year too so thanks again for a great rally!!
The best race of my life…. So far?"
Alex Liggett
Team: Team Above and Beyond
"Very efficiently organised. Good route, possibly better if less motorways or slightly shorter routes. Good knowledge of places but more time to see them would be good. More women. Overall I am very pleased. We had a fantastic time and would recommend it."
Chris Moody
"Excellent, as good as I’d hoped. Great route, right amount of driving and well organised. Wouldn’t come back unless it was a different route but would definitely recommend to others."
Steven Hunt
Team: Wrong Gear (Raised £1000 for Prince's Trust)
"Good challenges, brilliant driving roads, well organised with briefings, info packs are very useful. A lot of driving but a lot of fun. Good effort from all the teams."
Simon Lay
"Really fun rally, was like a real live Top Gear challenge, experienced some great driving roads and seen lots of amazing places. Very well organised, many thanks."
Rob Garrett
"Great fun, great roads, well organised and great to be part of it and win, Postman Pat enjoyed himself too!"

"Brilliant, amazing experience and Paul was a fantastic leader - listened to concerns and took what we said in to consideration, plus hugely helpful with our brake situation in Germany. Thanks guys for a fantastic experience and helping us raise a huge amount for a very worthwhile charity.
Thank you for a brilliant week. I had an absolutely amazing time and that is largely due to the obvious ‘extra mile’ effort you all put in to organising the trip."
Steph Blott
"Had a really good time, very interesting, exciting, challenging. Thrilled to have raised so much money for charity. Very grateful for help from Paul when brake issues arose. Would have liked more info on hotels. Great :)"
Lucy Minshall
Team: Mojito Moto (Raised £5500 for Cancer Research)
"Overall an absolute fantastic experience, good organisation, great route, great bunch of people, good friendly organisers, Thanks!"
Rob Girling
"Well organised, very impressed by effort of contestants on their entries. Felt we wouldn’t experience the constant change of scenery across Europe if left to our own devices. Fantastic and grateful to you all for opening my eyes to parts of Europe I probably would never see. My thanks and best wishes."
Nigel Parker
Team: More Than Just a Hard Shell (Raised £1200 for Cancer Research)
"Overall we had a really good time and a real laugh. "
Dean Spindler
"Great experience, met some fantastic people, everyone really friendly, a meet up for a piss up every night would be a good idea – just to have the option. Many thanks."

2010 Testimonials
Below are a selection of testimonials from some team members who took part in the 2010 Motoscape Rallies:
"Just a quick note to say thanks for an awesome time on the Rally this year, it was great fun and can't wait for next years now, in fact I'm already looking for a car, and myself and Nicci may even do the rally as the first week of our honeymoon if we can make the dates work.....which reminds me, I should have told the parents I proposed before they found out via the blog...oops!"
Scott Mackenzie (Team Aerodynamicsmith)
"Motoscape rally is easily the best holiday EVER! Everyone have got to do it, having the time of my life :-)"
Peter Much (Team Aerodynamicsmith)
"Just want to say i big thank you for organising the event. I know we both had an excellent time!
The Motoscape rally was one of the most fun weeks that I've had. It was challenging but at the same time enjoyable. Its not very often that you get to see so many stunning views in so little time. I think the route picked was very good and visited all the kinda of places you would expect to see on a rally. The highlight was probably the Stelvio Pass for most of us on the rally because i think its what a lot of us joined to do.
The organisation of the rally was amazing, we never had any issues with the hotels when we got there (and they were all very nice). You were all very well prepared when we arrived and it just made life a lot easier after driving all day. You managed to get a great group of people on the rally this year and i think thats one of the best things about it. We managed to have a laugh with all the other teams and you meet people definitely worth staying in touch with.
See you next year Motoscape!!"
Tom and Alex (Team Magnum PA)
"We have come away from our Motoscape week with smiles on our faces and lifelong memories.
Just want to say thanks to the organisers for planning the most interesting route through Europe and some great nights out.
The mixture of people made the week for us, keep in touch and we will see you next year."
Love Greta and Charlotte (Little Miss Sparkles)
"Firstly id like to thank you all for a great week away, we had a great time, The planning and organisation was superb, we are already thinking about next year.
We did stay the extra night problem free and the only charge was the car parking which was not a problem.
We left at 9am on sunday morning to catch the 21.25 ferry from calais, we arrived back in Blackpool at 03.00- record timing for nearly 1000 miles!!”

If those testimonials aren't enough for you, we've got even more from our previous Motoscape Rallies, take a look below:
"I enjoyed the rally immensly. Loved meeting the very different types of people that took part, and my liver has almost recovered by now...

Robert & Tony
"Pete and Paul,
Truly the best think I've ever done - I had the time of my life, made some friends for life and have advised pretty much everyone I know to get on the Motoscape Rally with 3 or 4 positive responses, I haven't finished uploading my pics form my camera but as soon as I have I'll forward you the pick of the bunch - until then here are some i thought you might like....
Thanks for having the organisation down to a 'T' you certainly would struggle to add anything there, all we could suggest are things I think we've already talked about...
• More GIRLS - I'm only human haha
• A stretch where we could have everyone in convoy - obviously not near a border but the photos from 4 cars together were great - imagine 10 or more!
• Perhaps a website updated with each day's events/mishaps/quotes/funnies - the External Hard Drivers and Danish lads did this and on getting back it looks excellent. I wish we could have kept our supporters up to date.....
Paddy has vowed to learn to drive, Dale wants to do more travelling and my project is to get into motorsport - I hope we can keep in touch and join you for at least part of next years rally.
It's been emotional"

for the experience. Thanks again.'
Mike, Steven and Andrew
'Just a quick e-mail to say thank you for a fantastic week. We both felt
that the rally was well planned and took in some of the most amaxing roads and scenery along the way.
We managed to give our car to the owner of the hotel in Krakow, who was
very pleased and even gave us a free lift to the airport.
We are really looking forward to the next race, I mean rally, so please
keep us updated with plans and dates, so we can fit it in around other less important things like work and weddings etc...
Best wishes to you both, and thanks again.'
