    Touring: Fife and Forth Villages, but not in a shed....

    As per title I fancied a mini tour. My mate James who Ringway and Dieselman have met suggested an easter Jolly. We decided to meet at the Forth Bridge at 930am. I aimed the shed towards there and with the traffic so light I got this MPG Bugger all traffic at this time on the road made an...

    Touring the Baltic States.

    Advice needed please. The idea is to escape the Olympics and all the BBC bull$h1t. So, it's ferry to Amsterdam then head east and north. One possibility is to head up into Denmark and cross into Sweden via the bridge then after a bit of touring there catch the ferry from Stockholm to Tallin and...

    This could become very interesting. I know it's technically a BMW but I can see this being quite appealing: 3 litre 6 cylinder bi-turbo, 350hp, 8 speed auto BMW ALPINA - D5 BITURBO

    Back touring in Scotland...business as usual!!!

    On Sunday I decided to take a run upto Pitlochary to see my friend Greig (who the Scots forum members have met) for some lunch and a day out. He was coming down from the Highlands so it was a convenient place to meet. Needless to say I could have gone up the boring way by the A9, but I...

    Touring in France with SL

    Looking for advice please. Just back from a cycle tour of Brittany, and now longing to tour further afield with the top down. Is there a specialist breakdown/recovery service for older cars? It would be reassuring. Also any tips from people who have gone down the same route. There were...

    Italian Touring Bike...

    So now that I've seen a few rays of sun, I'm tempted to trade in a bike or two and get a touring bike... That said, as usual, it needs to be Italian (like all my bikes!) Any ideas? I was thinking of a Ducati ST2 or ***... they have some good reviews and look quite nice... Any others...

    Touring fueltank for S124?

    I've been looking through the owner's handbook that came with my S124, and it shows two different capacities for the fueltank without any explanation as to whether this relates to bodystyle, an optional extra, or anything... If I can fit a bigger tank, this would be fantastic - am I likely to...

    BMW 320d Touring

    The sensible car just (well the other month anyway) got more sensible. The Golf GT TDI 115 went and a BMW 320d SE Touring (150PS) has filled it's place.

    BMW 325i SE Touring

    Not defected, well only from Smart, the merc remains "the family bus". Picked this up yesterday, company motor to pile the miles on: 215bhp, and a straight six that makes a nice noise. Think I'll enjoy this one.

    Return from touring France and Spain

    Just got back to Blighty after a fortnight driving through France and Spain in our C180 Elegance. As expected, the car performed perfectly throughout the 2500 mile trip with 4 in, fully loaded and a full roofbox. Even with the 1.8 engine it pulled well, only changing down into 4th on the long...
