Looks like you had fun Eddie, car looks spotless .

 

Loved my France / Italy / Spain trip last august. May have to get a week away this year.

Nice pic's looks like a good trip, watched Le Mans for the first time this year via the app, got a German roadtrip in August looking forward to it.

 

Car looks fantastic like the 24h sticker

I like the colour on the front bumper Eddie. Glad you had a good trip. It sounds like there was some good racing this year.

Last time I went I saw a guy at Dover in a s1 exige and then nothing for the rest of the trip

 

 

Going to have to take the exige through reims next time and have some photos outside the old pits.

Riems.......that's where I wanna go next time.....

I too did France this year 4000 miles in 2 weeks......

loved it........saw one lotus.......and that was in heavy traffic on the pariferique going in the opposite direction.......

 

Id say the French are more courteous drivers than us (general populous......they are all happy moving it on rather than dawdling).....their motorways are 2 lanes.....and everyone sits in the outer lane and overtakes on the inner....returning immediately to the outer lane........

 

if only someone had thought about that here.........instead of having the middle lane designated 'private' for the 40~50mph drivers.....

Some awesome roads around the area, we drove many back roads as you can see from the state of the car, there was mud coming out the vents behind the front wheels.

 

Hope Calais will be better in a months time

We came back on Monday just missed it .

next job tomorrow is wash down and polish .
