Getting a Chimaera on EuroTunnel train.
Discussion
Well guys, of course it did fit. Although they were loading cars on the upper deck on the way back and we were well loaded up (exhausts clipping kerbs etc) so I asked to go downstairs the chap was cool and let us wait which meant we were first off
If anyone has never done it I would heartily recommend taking a TVR to France/Belgium, the looks you get from the smallest kid to the oldest granny are superb - sheer and utter admiration.
One pedestrian in Lille crossed the road in front of us then stood staring open mouthed in the oppostie carriageway until a car nearly ran him over!
The other amazing thing is the space French drivers give you, ordinarily they are over you like a rash but in the TVR I was always given about a foot all round - superb.
I never really believed all the stories of how they stare etc, trust me they are true.
Car behaved faultlessly as per usual in temeratures reaching high 20's even stuck in city traffic the engine never rose above 95. Never a glitch. Until the day after we got home and 2 small stone chips decided to join up in the windscreen and we now have a very nice crack 1/4 the way across the screen
Cheers for all the advice.
