Beautiful Alps. So good to be out of the heat of Northern Italy.

Nice! When do you get back? I hit the road again tomorrow - stop over in Troyes, back to England on Friday.

Back home chaps.
About 2850 miles (speedo stopped working in Exeter!! :lol: )
After popping in to see my long lost reli on the Menin gate.
I can see those French 'Stainless wings' pics now. We never met but those lovely people left a note with reception & paid for our hotel breakfast. :thumbsup:
D ran real well, but several little things packed up, speedo, one window switch, brake-light, dash illumination, & I think one of the spark-plugs is breaking down. But all in all a great adventure.
The worst roads (and heat) was Italy but they certainly make up for it in loving cars & showing it. Leaning out of windows, shouting 'Moto-bella' at you or standing through sunroofs to take pics. In northern Europe its much more likely to be a discrete grin and thumbs up. :greetings-waveyellow:
D spent 12 days parked in cities, streets and hotel carparks with no damage & only pics taken. :thumbsup:
Some assorted pics.......

Congrats Karl, sounds like an epic trip. You are a brave man taking the car all that way with only test mileage on it prior to the trip.
