Did you take a spare car to put it all in??!

Nope and we had room for our luggage to last 12 days. Even had room on the way home to squeeze in a couple of half cases wine.

Dunno what car it was that was chucking out all that smoke at Rheims, but he should have pitted - or been black flagged

Nice pics Mr. Wong, keep them coming

And make sure you keep the noise down in those tunnels!
On no account be tempted to drop it into second & floor it....

The above road was amazing, best road I have ever driven on. We have done the n58 route napoleon today heading in to Monaco. It was a good road but hard work at times in the Tuscan. Monaco is a mental place, some right machinery here, but no TVR's yet. I still cant believe the attention the Tuscan gets over here, its like the Frenchies have never seen one before. Good trip up to yet if a little stressfull at times with finding hotels and traffic etc. We head for Maranello in the morning for one night then a little mini 3 night break at lake garda where I can finally have myself a good amount of beer

I might see you on the A26/E70 Fly into Bergamo early tomorrow morning, pick car up from Como then drive down to Ancona after lunch. May go the long way though via Genoa and Florence as I haven't been that way before and a drive over the Apennines sounds fun.
Watch out for some really sharp dips between Piacenza and Bologna on the Autostrada, hopefully now fixed but last time I drove that way with a boot full of wine and passenger (not in the boot) I nearly took off.

Enjoy the trip.

Cheers for the advice and I will keep my eyes peeled, its not like I have seen any other TVR'S yet

Maranello yesterday, we enjoyed that. We stopped for one night in the maranello village hotel. Good stop over and very cheap. We did go to the Ferrari museum, its well worth the trip. The Tuscan was like centre stage there. People asking questions and taking pics/filming all the time. We are at lage garda now where we stop for 3 nights,we then head to Davos via the stelvio pass.
