Ok, you have a week. Where to go?
Discussion
Hi all.
I have a couple weeks leave coming up, and other than spending a week in the uk with family and friends, I also intend to take a week long blat somewhere in Europe with a mate.
Problem is, it's 7 days from start to finish which limits us a little.
I think that France is the obvious choice, I want some nice roads to drive and warm weather, along with good roads and scenery. (aiming for sept)
Car is a 964 Targa so I'd like some roof off driving!
We have previously done a 2 week Spain/France/Italy/Switzerland road trip including the Stelvio Pass, Monaco etc.
Ideas?
Both mid twenties so lively towns/cities to stay in would be ideal.

Pyrenees based in Vielha. Fantastic roads that will not disappoint.I have a couple weeks leave coming up, and other than spending a week in the uk with family and friends, I also intend to take a week long blat somewhere in Europe with a mate.

EDIT. Just noticed you want lively ......... Pyrenees in summer is not the place, not anywhere I'm aware of that is rocking .... and that's from a fella who's in his mid forties.

Get across to Munich (BMW museum) and the Stuttgart (Porsche museum). Then up to Koblenz for a quick lap at the ring, finally into Gent. Beer stop off near Calais.
+1You could also fit in the Audi museum at Ingolstadt, the M-B museum in Stuttgart
and the Technik museum at Sinsheim, near Heilbronn.
I always find Gent to be free of American tourists, which makes it much
better than Bruges, just up the road.
French beer isn't anything to write home about. Suggest do the beer'n'fags topup
at Adinkirke in Flanders, Belgium.
