Hu Guys,
As some of you may know, there is a channel tunnel station just outside calais (france) for traveling between england and france.
Since eurostar charge such ridiculous prices for a seat (approx 75 euros now) I wondered if there was any busses or coaches that go on the car section or car sharing between the 2 stations? since it is cheaper for a car to cross the channel on the channel tunnel (between calais and folkestone) than it is for a seat on the eurostar.

The might be bus services through the tunnel like ie Eurolines but the cheapest way to cross the channel probably would be the Calais - Dover ferry operated by SeaFrance:

From Paris is best to take a direct TGV to Calais, however there are only a few, otherwise take one to Lille and change on a regional train to Calais Ville. Then take the ferry with Seafrance to Dover which costs 8 euro with your interrail ticket.
