fantastic trip - just under 2000 miles and the Zed was just perfect. Used a bit of oil, as you'd expect, as were fully loaded, but mpg was about 25-27!! Even fully loaded the car handled just fine and there didn't seem to be any sag in the suspension (car not GF ). New Falkens were a very good idea - and they seem to be a very good tyre. I only lost it once, overtaking johnny foreigner on a Belgian A-road in the wet, dropped to 4th and floored it and nearly did a 360!!! will post some pics if I get time this week ....and I have a fab film of gf driving over Grand St Bernard Pass with 'On Days like These' on the cd...magic! will put on youtube soon as...
