I read on here so many reports of RR unreliability so far I've been to scared to take my RR abroad, am I overreacting - a trip to France would be nice.

Oh and whats a "Crit" sticker?

@Craig,

@Geoff, its a little sticker [4euro] that allows you to visit certain french towns without paying a penalty for not having one..
i've been over to euroland with all my FF's and luckily had no problems.. do it, you'll definitely enjoy driving on the french roads. ... - .- -.

Just been looking at the photo of the rear of your car Stan and it looks like you have the usual dropped upper tailgate. This is a common problem with L405s.

Thanks for this tip think I have same issue.

spurred on by pics of craigs lovely FF, here are a few more of mine when my youngest cleaned it...

Very smart.

Just think of all the flies you're going to collect on the front this week to and from the Loire.  John

well my loire valley trip is now done so i thought i'd post some pics of 'bob' in some very nice places.

we stopped at the le mans racetrack with intentions of just having a look round but there were some motorbike racing/practice going on so that was a bonus,







next was a chateau where we found out that there was a collection of old Cadillacs [and a de loren and a few corvettes] stored in two large garages ..the car collection was kinda left to ruin as the owner didnt get enough through put to make it a viable income so she closed it down ...so now only residents are allowed to view it..













we then travelled to amboise and stopped a few times along the loire river,









at amboise theres a sort of beach area near the river , we parked there and enjoyed the scenery,









nice bridge near saumur,





we then stayed at another chateau on the way back,

Nice pics Stan... Glad to see the dog is still going strong Did Mrs B enjoy herself to?

What was the name of this one Stan, looks very familiar to me

its the chateau du landin Dan, but tbh theres loads over there that all look similar..



@Craig, trixi is 12 years old now and MrsB really enjoyed the trip and is still hanging on despite the constant doses of arsenic in her tea..  ... - .- -.
