I'd like to try some of their extreme forms of motorsport, as regularly demonstrated by Top Gear

I spent a wonderful 3 weeks in Iceland some years ago.
One of the top holidays I ever had. Exciting and very interesting.
Yes some of the motorsport available (then) was totally exhilarating (ie scary)

Could apply that to many things available in Iceland :rolleyes:

I've always wanted to go there, but was put off when their economy was booming by reports of the very high costs of eating and drinking out - I've been to Denmark a few times and that was bad enough:yikes:. Now their currency has been substantially down valued and they're struggling, it might be a bit cheaper :Erm:

You're correct Ian. When I was there it was very very expensive for the lifestyle I had.
In fact all of Scandinavia was very expensive. But also very exciting, interesting and unmissable.:hubbahubba:

I have no idea what the comparative costs are in these days.
