    I went off with a few mates last week to tour europe in the GT86. the other cars were a Porsche 964, Lotus S2 111S and a Morgan Plus 4

    Total was 1670 miles Monday to Saturday. Amazing places to visit. Switzerland was fecking expensive and we did not intend to stay more than a day. By the 3rd Night we got into Germany. Managed to get on a Autoban but was a shame the traffic was heavy so only managed 110MPH. but was really refreshing that you can do any speed you like without the need to keep a eye out for speed cameras and Police.



    Trip was Caen via Le mans and Tours to Macon then into Switzerland to Morges By Lake Lausanne, Both the Grimsal pass and Furka Pass (as in italian job start of movie ) was closed due to snow. We thought this could happen at this time of the year so took a Car train via the pass tunnel. Stayed in Altdof which was amazing and lovely views. Up past Zurich to Schaffhousen then to The Ardenne forest and stayed in Boullion



    Amazing place and to be at the foot of the alpes in 23 degree heat to then to get 15ft drifts next to reads thousands of feet up and it's 4 degrees.

    I'll be going back via italy next time

    Highlights. There were many

    from the Autoban, Views by and on the alps. The food at a the 2 michelin star restaurants. Having a private pool at this place http://www.lepetitmanoir.ch/

    staying in this place http://www.alte-rhei...h/aktuelles.php right on the rhine river



    23 degrees at the foot of the alps to 4 degrees and 15ft snow drifts a few hours later

    We only booked the ferry from Portsmouth to Caen then found hotels and went where the weather was good. And lucky the weather was good in the direction we were hoping to go which was Switzerland
