![]() Thanks, everyone, for the positive responses ! We're really looking forward to the trip and the chance to explore France again - I've not been over there for about 20 years

![]() The only problem, not mine, we came across while travelling south through Bordeaux, was an English couple whose satnav had gone ‘off line’. He was on his way back to an hotel just outside Calais. Told him to stay on that m/way and it would take him to Calais. Only thing I have had happen was a bad connection on a brake light connection in Germany outside my sons house. Bit of emery paper and a good rub and everything was ok. Perhaps we have been lucky over the 30 odd years we have been going over there.

![]() Just a quick update and thank you to all those that replied to this thread
![]() We're now back home after 1250 miles driving on the 'wrong' side ![]() ![]() We had a great time, the weather was perfect (nice & warm, around 25°C most days) and the air con worked perfectly throughout the trip. I was also amazed at how many Rovers are left on the French roads - we saw: 3 x 75 saloons 1 x ZT 3 x 25s (all in silver) 1 x MG ZR 1 x Rover 600 - obviously enthusiasts as they flashed & waved ! We actually saw more MG Rover products across the water than during our trip to Scotland earlier this year, which I'm guessing is down to the warmer climate, smoother roads (no pot holes) and possibly an abscence of salt in the winter ? Thanks again and highly recommended to anyone else that fancies trying a different culture and enjoys exploring new places ![]()
