Hello All
Back from what was an amazing 2 week trip with the lovely Z and the lovelier (just!) girlfriend.
In case you were wondering I took other pictures that were not of the car...
1. London to Gascogny leaving on the 7am ferry. Mother lives in a little village called Simorre.
Girlfriend and the red head...
Dog's name is Lulu
Example of the smooth roads and the rolling hills
2. Gascogny to St Paul de Vence. Lovely hotel called Les Messugues, damn reasonable, very friendly people and lovely setting.
Damn hotel cat!
Z outside Monaco casino - felt very 007
Just outside Antibes
Quick clean, and a cool pic
3. SPDV to Bluffy just above Lake Annecy. Take the N85 from Nice (as I think some of you have already said). It is epic, it is special, DO IT!!! The roar of the engine through the tunnels is emotional. BMW really does equal joy!
N85
You drive through the gap in the rock...epic
Great walks in Bluffy
Stunning Lake Annecy, went Paragliding over it...
PM me if you have any questions about the trip, it really is something that you should do!
2 slight niggels...Coolant tank sprung a leak the day before I was supposed to leave! Took it into Hexagon servicing and was fixed, cleaned and driven back to my home. They really are great at Hexagon, Aiden especially puts in the extra effort. On the trip the airbag light came on and never went off. Emergency assist said to take it to a dealer...Not about to lose a day of holiday sitting in a dealership. Dangerous but I lived to tell the story! Will get her fixed next week.
Not bad for 2000 miles in a car that is 5 years old, she was a dream to drive and looks great. Hello to the couple on the ferry in the sweet Roadster Alpina!
