Awesome .... my friend, was NOT the word......

The Frenchies loved us, well only to be expected with a special 'Green Meanie and the Glorious Griff sandwiched by the magnificent Sags.

Who needs Ferraris and Lambos in France!!! Trust me, where ever we stopped the camera phones came out and the thumbs went up. What a carnival. Even the motorbike cops on the Auto Route were keen on us, never stopped us, but certainly had a 'sniff' riding their bikes along side us!!! Just Fab, what we saw in a week over there, would take a year of reaction over here!. No wonder we love driving in France!

Long live the Griff!

Oh I know they love them, we recently went over in my Tuscan which is in balloon white and it pretty much stopped traffic at times biglaugh I was genuinely surprised at ow much the French loved it, more so than the Italians I'd say.

Going in a group of 4 must have been special!

Sweet pics. The week just flew by... bit like the miles. Took a French guy for a spin in the Sag, he nearly cried. Knew all the specs and kept saying the French have had nothing like TVR and why didn't the govenment save the factory.... Shook my arm off when he got out. I felt sad after thinking about what he said.

Fantastic week which just seemed to roll by far to quick for us all.

Around 6000miles between us and not a real problem for any of us apart from a wiper blade falling off and a small power steering leak developing on mine.

Great fun and the french just loved us, we really made a stir in Hornfluer
