Car has been given a once over and ready for the hoon!!! Had the new PS4S's fitted yesterday and also the wheels powder coated in satin black by Wheel Works in Crawley - To say the did a good job in an understatement!!! Its made a great difference to the appearence of the car and i also decided to lose the diamond cut edge. Never been a fan of this. A few pics below of Merlin!!!!

I crossed early Saturday morning. I also tend to pay the extra for the higher and wider carriage but I made the fatal mistake of not following the signs and ended up in the massive queue for the ordinary carriage! Got stuck there. Nonetheless, alloys intact too! [emoji23][emoji23] enjoy your trip!

If you have any pictures of the extra space given in the high/wide carriages versus your track width they may be good to share for other members and their future travel plans.

Ah bugger. Now in Brugges having a baguette and coffee[emoji507][emoji507]. I’d say there’s at least 18ins either side and the height is large enough to accommodate any car[emoji1531][emoji1531]

The standard carriage is worry you don’t need in a car with a wide track, low profile tyres, and expensive alloy wheels, but there are no such worries in the high carriage.

Sit Rep
Just stopped again for coffee and food in Koblenz.
The drive so far has been excellent as well as the weather. 17* and sunny all the way down. Managed a brief sorte up to 150 but quite a bit of traffic. Averaging around 28mpg which isn’t bad considering I’ve been 80s most of the way[emoji41]
Final stage now as got around 160 miles to go. Will post pics once in Affalterbach as to be honest service stations are all the same[emoji849][emoji849][emoji849]
