Hi Goggstrotters!
We'll be in Turkey around mid-October as well. Maybe we meet on the road ;-)
We're holding iranian tourist visa allowing to stay in the country for 30 days. To receive it you need to have a reference number of the Iranian Ministry of Interior. To get in contact with them you may visit a travel agency selling journeys to iran. Tell them about your intention and maybe they are able and willing to help. After receiving the reference number, issuing the visa is easy. In Frankfurt they charged us 59.-€ per person.
You may also ask for seven days lasting transit visa. In former times you were able to extend it inside the country. My last information (2 month ago) is that visa-extensions are not given any longer.
The iranian embassy in Istanbul is supposed to act helpful and with understanding.
Have a safe ride! See you on the road!
