Well its been a very interesting 2 years living in Madrid but the packers arrive on Monday & we will finally say goodbye to Spain.

I've had some real highlights and some bad experiences but on the whole, its been great. Driving a TVR across Spain is one of the best driving experiences of my life. Space, roads, weather, Paradores, terrain & people make it idyllic.

If you live in Spain, drive as much as you can, whenever you can. If you dont live in Spain, give it a go !!

In Spain, if you leave a gap big enough for a car, then its probable someone will fill it ! Its fair play as far as the Spanish are concerned. Roundabouts are amazing but when EVERYONE drives the same way, you realise its the Brits who are odd.

How often do you see a car in the UK double parked with hazards on ?? (I kind of miss it !)

Big difference in the UK is the aggression.
