Right... I'm planning a monster road-trip across Western Europe. Thought I'd post up the details on the very rare chance that I could convoy with/meet anyone on the way; -
September
18th leave early morning to catch the Euro Tunnel at 8:20. I'll then drive to Ulm in South-West Germany to stay at a friends, although I haven't decided on whether to go through France or Belgium-Germany to get to Ulm. Guess it'll probably depend on the number of road works on the different routes on the day.
19th drive to Interlaken, passing through Zurich on the way, stay over-night.
20th drive to Liechtenstein, taking the long-route through the Furka Pass , stay over-night.
21st drive to Hasselt, Belgium stay with some friends.
22nd head back to the UK on the 12:20 Euro Tunnel.
I figure it's going to add 2k-2.5k of mileage to the car, which is a lot but since she's my fair-weather weekend toy that barely gets used I'm not that bothered about the extra mileage.
Any thoughts/comments welcome. I'm borrowing a friends' European road kit (mini-fire extinguisher, red triangle etc.). I've got a small bag of common tools, fuses etc., and an additional puncture repair can. I've purchased uber-insurance i.e. drag my car all the way back to blighty if it properly brakes. I've also created a 25 hour playlist on my phone (I have a bluetooth stereo) too. In-car phone charger.
Changed the oil and filters 3 months back. New bilstein shocks and springs have only seen 1k. Tyre tread is good.
Think I'm all ready?
