    Driving to France for skiing trip

    Hi folks, So booked my skiing trip to the French Alps. Decided to take my C63 estate and now need to think about what to take for the car. I already decided against winter tyres as I live in London and normally drive short distances around town. Just can't justify spending that much for 2-3...

    Le Tour de France 2014

    Kittel wins the first stage, Cavendish crashes out on the run in and has all the signs of a broken collar bone. Yorkshire looks very pretty, but the peloton had to stop on a few occasions and go almost in single file due to the narrowness of the roads.

    Driving In France

    Hi, I'm off to France for a short break and will be hiring a car while over there. Some time ago, I understand that the French introduced a law to say that you had to carry a breathalyser kit in your car. It was later reported that legislation regarding penalties for not carrying one had not...

    Bi-xenons & headlamp deflectors (driving in France)

    So the £5 deflectors you can grab on Amazon .. is there any special consideration with bi-xenons (eg. cause problems with self-levelling, etc.)? Or do they do the job just fine? What do you normally do when crossing the channel for a couple of weeks?

    MotoRail to south of France

    Thinking of using the motorail from Paris to the south of France this summer. Has anybody used it before? It would be handy to bounce a few questions off anybody who's used it.

    On Saturday, I'll be returning from south burgundy (digoin) to Calais. We'll be fully loaded (in the s210:)) so would prefer to stick to motorways. The route we usually take is to The east: Chalon, Dijon, Troyes, Reims, etc... I am wondering if we'd save any time going west: A77, then a6...

    France Auto route discount?

    Going to france for a fortnight and wondered if there are any ways to get discounts on the autoroutes? Is it cheaper to get the auto pay thingy that opens the barrier automatically instead of paying at every toll?
