Adventures of an S1 Elise in Germany

[Badger02]

Some of you will know, but for the rest, I'll be working in Germany near Mannheim until end of 2026 with 75% of my time there, and 25% back home.

As i fancy doing some different roads, and I've booked two weekend driving tours with Delightful Driving company (run by Elisa Artioli), on Thursday 10th July I'll be setting of in my S1 Elise, and 4 days later I plan to arrive at my apartment.

I plan to post about my driving adventures over there, so keep an eye on this blog should you be interested.

Cheers Badger

Where are the tours taking you Badger ? &nbsp
what route are you taking into Germany ? 
 

my only foreign lotus drive was a crazy weekend when I took the wife to Paris to see Robbie Williams maybe 15 years ago at the Stade De France and we covered 800 miles in 36 hours on about 3 hours sleep and a few Le Red Bulls . The periferquice and Champs Elisie were like wacky races ( google it kids !) and no fun in over 90 degrees , I had to put the roof on !!

keep us up to date with your trip

Today's destination is Prum in West Germany. After yesterday's 350km of boring motorways, set the prefered route type in my tomtomapp to thrilling. Not sure if there are any thrilling roads in Belgium, but will see where it takes me 🙂
