At Last year's LM ,on Thursday we Stopped at a large Shell service station on the way down from Calais, I think on the N138.

Apart from having Optimax, the place was like a sports car show, with TVR's, Lambo's , Lotus's and all sorts all over.
(my lunchtime note & pics about it even got in EVO letters page)

What I was wondering , does anyone know if it's before the new motorway Section of the A28?


I think it was called ‘arie de bai de somme” or something, according to a PH'r's reply to the thread at the time.


As for myself, I don't have a clue !

Had a look on the www.shell.com website. The location does indeed appear to be
about an hour out of Calais. On the A16/E402 ....and if you look on a map it's adjacent to a small town called Sailly-Flibeaucourt...which is just north of Abbeville.
Hope that helps.
Cheers

The said service station also looks over a waterfowl sanctuary if you fancy taking a couple of twelve bores as well What more could you want, a good butchers at a Zonda and the chance to feed some Mallards!

Sorry my post didn't come out, I said that if your going on the A16 you won't miss the signs for it.
