As the title suggests we set off on Sunday with the Z for our first long trip in her.The plan is to cross on the Eurotunnel and go to lake Garda via lakes Annecy and Como. We have booked nowhere and planned nothing in advance. The only rule is that we will not come back the same way used to get there. So a rough idea will be ( from the Eurotunnel ) Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Italy, Austria, Germany then back to Belgium and Eurotunnel then home to Burnley. I would like to travel the Stelvio pass and I have also got a surprise for my wife in Germany !
My wife says I would sleep with my car if I could as I spent so much time tinkering with her so thats what we are going to do ! In Frankfurt there is a hotel where your car comes in the room with you so I have made a provisional booking for a room on a high floor where the car will come with us into the room (its actually separated by sliding patio doors but you can keep them open then the car will be next to the bed ) I know how much she will love it.......... NOT !
I will update the thread as I go along with pictures. Fingers crossed all goes well with the car. Its at the garage as I type having its mot and a minor service including replacement of auxiliary belt that doesn't look like its been done in quite a while.
You can see how much she will appreciate the car on her side next to her with patio doors open car on ticker over to help me off to sleep !
