Think you’re right I might scrap the ring visit and possibly also the stop in Bruges. That way we could spend more time in the south of France and area around the alps.

here's a first attempt at a route Day 1 drive to Portsmouth for midday ferry to Bilbao Day 2 arrive in Bilbao at midday and drive to Barcalona (380 miles) Day 3 day in Barcalona Day 4 Leave Barcalona to drive to Nice/Monaco (425 miles) Day 5 day around Nice/Monaco Day 6 leave Nice/Monace to...

Cheers, your first route looks something like what I want to do. Just can’t make my mind up whether to drive down through France or take the boat and have 24 hours on the boat relaxing. Me saying 7-10 was just me being tight with taking time off work (I’m self employed). If it needs to be 14+...

I'll try and get a proper schedule/route together over the weekend

Your out bound route sounds similar to ours coming home. I was thinking of the ferry down to Bilbao to avoid the day or day and a half of driving down through France. I live in Yorkshire so already got a few hundred miles to do before we get out of the UK. Dunkirk or the war graves are a good...

If you mean are we going in our megane, then no. It’s my sons car so no. At the minute we’ll be going in my wife’s Evoque but that could change depending on what cars we have at the time.

just starting to plan a Euro road trip for around next June. Currently thinking of Portsmouth to Bilbao on ferry Barcelona Monaco Alps /Lake Como up through Switzerland (via Furka Pass area etc) then onto either Nürburgring or Spa (trying to arrange this for when there's a race on) possibly...

I didn’t do that, I just s**t my pants. As for the car I let off a little (I know you’re not supposed to) and it sorted itself out. My dad was in the car and the whole way through it he continued talking away to me. I ended up telling him to shut up. It was one of those moments when you can...

get me, I bet I could make a right mess with that sort of payload. I did have a massive moment once while towing an XR4x4 (on a trailer) with a BMW E36. Got a proper snake on while driving on the M1.

how does passing in 1992 set me up for being able to tow a 747?

does all this B+E testing bollox only apply to younger drivers. If you passed your test before the internet was invented, and you have every letter of the alphabet on the back of your licence can you drive/tow anything or does the 3.5 ton limit still apply.

some near filler cap and small amount of paint bubbling knew I'd forget something.

the rest in cash?

what do you think for my clio Silver 2005 182 (FF) on 84k Service history consists of a folder with loads of receipts, but the service book only has a few stamps in it. 4 recent tyres (nankang on front, goodyear on rear) currently on turini's, but also will come with std wheels which haver...

Been discussed on cuttters, consensus on there is it’s way over priced

Old tanks are cool. I want this old BM, but I've a feeling he wants much more than I want to pay at the moment. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/254353972451

Cool.. Reminds me of Denzel’s car in training day lol.

Hope that damage was from knocking a moped thief off his bike

Yep ....I missed that lol

How many miles did you manage to do In it in your ownership

It’s in the queuing area for the fast and furious ride at Universal Studios Florida. There are a few cars there from the different FF movies (I’m assuming all replicas). If you go do yourself a favour and go through the queue and look at the cars then don’t bother with the ride......it’s...

Seen a decent mk1 escort today lol

Just seen a BMW X7, Christ the grilles are massive

Yeah, he’s put wood in it......

You must be the only person I’ve seen to fit wood, everyone else seems to remove it at the first opportunity

If you’re bothered just get a disklok

Once the car behind me on a set of sighting laps got spoken to by the organisers. He was tailgating me and generally driving like a Audi repmobile in rush hour. Getting spoken to about your driving on sighting laps must be a first.

Very nice, warranty too. They really are struggling to sell these at the moment pushing prices down. £14k for that is very tempting

so it has happened once (or twice)

I’ve had a pro out a few times. Watching him do it it looked like one of those jobs that you need a lot of practice at to get good. Depending on the car and how bad the dent is I don’t think I’d try it myself
