Taking the Scooby to France on Saturday for a week - driving from St Malo down to the Med coast.

Yeah, looked at Corsica Sam, but it's a bit too far to go for just a week - going to the West corner of the Med (plus the missus is not a driving fan!!)

You need to get her trained. We went there for a week and celebrated our 20th wedding anny a few years ago. She loved it and is now keen on 280hp instead of 215! I have explained that better brakes and more power is much SAFER, as is a replacement set of 215s instead of the 205s.....

When the car is modded (as soon as i've had the gearbox done under warranty....) we hope to go back.

If you can't make it to Corsica, the coast autoroute from france into italy is good fun, the bends are quite fun at a ton

Cheers Sam, I could use this sort of info on my website Clicky

It's aimed at bikers, but the good roads are good fun for Scoobies too...
