TimFF Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 That will be a whole lot of fun... I did it on 2 wheels rather too many years ago now, make sure you include a bit of autobahn storming getting there or back - nailing it and knowing you're legal at 3 digit speeds is rather enjoyable! 1 Quote
yankeesiter Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 At last! Someone who actually intends to drive their car to somewhere where the roads aren't crap and crowded. I was beginning to think this forum was just for bling junkies. 1 Quote

davedutch Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Will, totally jealous, makes Wales pale into insignificance. Will look forward to your photos. If only i could persuade my other half.... 1 Quote
Will370z Posted July 7, 2014 Author Posted July 7, 2014 Hopefully the weather will be a bit brighter and the roads less smelly mark lol Quote
SteveM Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Don't worry will. I PROMISE you there will be loads of great roads but there will be 1 stand out stretch that you will want to do again and again... Day 1 will be the long boring day of getting to the good bits. I can't wait till Saturday morning myself. We are doing our first night in Heidelberg. Where are you aiming to get to on your first day?

Will370z Posted July 7, 2014 Author Posted July 7, 2014 That makes me feel queasy mark lol. Blasting down to the outskirts of Baden Baden in one long stint Steve, then taking it nice and easy down route 500 next day Just been rereading that guide of the passes you sent through Steve, god I can't wait lol 1 Quote
SteveM Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Yep we were going to do Baden Baden in the first day but a girl that works with my wife comes from Heidelberg and said it was worth a visit. Next night we are aiming for lucerne in Switzerland. Then up into the alps on day 3.... I have searched the length of the furka pass and worked out where the Goldfinger scene was shot Quote

5 o'clock tea Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 Something I've always wanted to do... The day I have the proper car to do it Enjoy the trip and please post plenty of pictures when back! Quote
yankeesiter Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 Lovely pics and nice car. Where did you go? Thanks. Over to Brittany, down the west coast of France, east from Bayonne over the Cols de le Gourette, d'Aubisque and Tourmalet into Spain, through Vielha down to Tremp, across to Cardona, up to Llanca. Then up through the Gorge du Verdon to Castellane, the northern half of the Route de Napoleon to Digne up to the Haute Savoie taking in the Col du Galibier and home via Burgundy and Reims. It's what 350's, 370's and GTRs are made for. Quote
Will370z Posted July 9, 2014 Author Posted July 9, 2014 It's what 350's, 370's and GTRs are made for. Couldnt agree with you more Quote
SteveM Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Well I'm on my way..... Roadster boot is stuffed! Oil topped up, tyre pressures checked, washer fluid topped up and extra GB sticker on the back for the Swiss! Just about to board the train. Next stop Germany and the Black Forest Quote
twobears Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Have a lovely time everyone Those roads look like a Scalextric track Quote
