Lovely pictures Jarno, Great Car also.
Glad you had some nice time in France. You could have told me you were coming to France we would have done a mini meet with our Steel Blues

Hello Jarno,
Incidentally, what petrol did you use in France? E95, E95-10 or E98? (very important) Thanks

Thanks for your kind words everyone!
@Majed: I have used Euro 95 where possible, only once at a motorway service station I could only get E10 petrol, which I used. I later read that this type of fuel is not recommended for our cars but that it is ok to use if nothing else is available. What's your opinion on that matter?

Effectively, I use E95 where available. When not available, I used to make a 50/50 mix during the first part of the journey adding E95-10 to the E95 remaining in half the tank approximately. The rest of the journey, I would use E98 if I could not find the E95 at all. I also read that the E95-10 is not recommended to our cars and therefore avoid having a full tank of it .

Gorgeous car and photos. You're lucky to have Steel Blue with Neptune Blue. Car looks great in that colour with lower blackout, torpedoes and Serpents.
