Road Trip
Well the day has arrived.
The car is all set every nut and bolt has been re-torqued, oil levels checked and coolant checked. Everything packed.
Off on the grand adventure mk 2. Am aiming to get to Gibralter and back, the route is:
Dunkerque -Orleans - Claremont Ferrand - over the Millou bridge - Perpignan - Barcelona - Valencia - Alicante - Grenada - Malaga - Marbella -
Gibralter - Seville - Elvas (Portugal) - Castela Branco - Salamanca - Santander - Bayonne - Bordeaux - Le Mans - Caen - Dunkerque.
Am leaving North Wales at 4ish so If you see a blue 7 with a topbox on and a Honda trike following that is us, give us a wave.
Will do a write up on our return.
Regards
Bob

Thanks all.
No braverly involved, just got to use the car.
Steve the cooling issues are fine thanks, can't get it to get hotter than 95 even in traffic and it sits at 90-95 as I am motoring along.
I will try and add things to this thread as we go, that is if I can master the phone - it has the ability but whether or not I have is another
matter.
