Why store a car at the Nurburgring?
There’s a number of reasons you may want to leave a car at the Ring:
You’re a Nurburgring regular. Whether you are coming from England, Europe or America, if you are a frequent tourist lapper then storing your car at the Ring makes sense. If you’re coming from abroad then flying to one of the nearby airports, renting a hire car and driving down to collect your track car from storage might be the way to do it. It can be more efficient for time and cost.
You have a hardcore no-compromise track car. Even if geographically you can drive to the Nurburgring in a few hours, you may have a dedicated track car. The car may be so stripped-out and hardcore that you can’t bear the physical punishment you’ll get from having to drive it a few hours across Europe, so storing it somewhere near to the track makes more sense.
It may be cheaper than towing. Check out some of the Nurburgring car storage prices listed below and you’ll see that they are very reasonable. You may be thinking about towing your track car, but consider the cost of a trailer and towbar, the extra fuel and the mental cost of having to drive slower and car storage might be more favourable.
You don’t want to put the miles on your car. If so, some of the below companies offer long-term storage solutions so you can keep the mileage down to just the 13 or so miles per lap that is accumulated on the Ring.
You want your car to be ready for lapping. Maybe you don’t have the time to do the preparation or service work on your car yourself before heading to the Ring. Some of the companies below offers workshop services whilst you car is stored with them to make sure your car is fit and ready for the Ring.
