Every sign Derek but driving on the continent is not my cup of tea to be honest. I have problems when turning right onto a dual carriageways and to a lesser extent roundabouts

I have tried a few times in Austria, Germany and France but my brain will not compute. I can do it but I hate it

My Dad was the same but my brother prefers driving over there :lol:

As for the 75 I have had a good look around but finding exactly what I want is difficult but there is one that I know will probably be coming up by Christmas and its lovely. The added complication is my wife hated both 75s and loves this bland boring Vectra..........but she doesn't drive it does she :lol:

Know what you mean Ken. I solved it by the mantra "Body to the kerb". As long as I keep that in my head I now have no problems and love driving in France.

I am the same Ken I am just too nervous about driving over there mind you I have driven on the other side of the road and that was in Egypt 1951 but it was all desert out there then

Don't worry!

Germans are very polite people on the road even if a british driver is on the wrong site...

BTW: The roadside is right, the steering wheel is on the wrong side

Hi Gert and friends in Club 75,

I was looking forward to an overseas trip next year, why did you have to have the meeting at the same time as Mrs Yellow Perils 50th (she won't thank me for telling you this) birthday?

We will not be able to make it this time as she already has a big party arranged. Shame.
