Hi all,

I've seen a few peoples stories of people venturing into Europe for roadtrips, so I figured I'd share mine too. We had a great time and if anyone is thinking of doing something similar this summer, do it! If you stay in camp sites like we did it can actually be done very cheaply.

I've written it up on my website and didn't really want to have to sort all the image code out for posting on here so do excuse the link:

There is a link to the pictures at the top if you want to miss all my non-structured drivel!

Matt.

Nice to see someone from the right side of leicestershire doing the runs down to the alps....will be going next year methinks. Although fuel costs when doing 25mpg get a bit excessive!

Thanks all.

CGV - Pass through Luxembourg, ensuring your tank is almost empty, do the same for Livigno. It'll still be a horrible amount of money but at least you'll feel good for two fill-ups biggrin

Ta very kindly - will make sure I do so. Looks like I might be able to just avbout stretch the mileage to make it between them without a refill...even though the Z's tank is big.
