Just returned from another FB5K tour - 3000 miles in 8 days in the Espada. My car's 30 years old this year so taking it back to the factory for "its birthday" and realising an ambition to drive it to Monte Carlo cool were the primary reasons for selecting the Espada for this tour...

...however, the entire journey was epic, made all the more special because of the car, the occasion and a terrific group of petrolheads sharing the adventure.

Some snaps from around France, Monaco, Switzerland and Italy.... Oh to be able to know what having one of these was like 30 or more years ago! Very fast, very comfortable and amazingly capable.

If I had a quicker car I'd love to do one of these FB5k trips - incredible.

Do I spot period bags there?

Like I said many times before: how can one NOT like the Espada.

The scenery is amazing BTW, and of course the Lambo is capable: it's a GT! It's made to eat every road AND huge mileage.

Nice video Boss thumbup. Good job that Porsche moved out of your way, I'v seen some of your videos and you only ever seem to like looking at them in your rear view mirror hehe.

PS. That lambo of yours sounds truly awesome cloud9.
