Yes probably not a very interesting thread. Bottom line is if you do many badly surfaced roads (I don't) better not opt for 22 inch wheels... and leave your in-laws at home if you want to enjoy the drive! |

Can't you get one of these for a 405?

mis-read the 'inland' as in the UK, thanks Robert ... - .- -.

Think of it this way - how much more uncomfortable would it have been an a car without all that wheel travel and a bad ride? |

@Robert: seems like a good idea, next one will be LWB with this... or a couple of ejector seats. P.s.: is that your Silver Wraith?

One of my many (still to be patented once I'm rich ) design ideas is a helmet for children that is sound proof. That means if the kid is inside it can scream its head of (pun intended) but outside you won't hear any of it. It does have all the electronics to keep a modern kid busy (screen, speakers, outside mic to tell them what to do and zapper if they misbehave (the last one will be optional I guess)).

Patent it and then you'll be rich. |

Somewhere near Draguignan? Lovely spot and amazing food, if I'm thinking of the same place. |

I know the place you mean, Bruno in Lorgues, very good but we were up in Aups for the truffle market and had lunch at Domaine de Majastre, had a fantastic meal, the guy who owns the place runs the market and everything that's on the plate is home grown: meat, vegetables and the truffles of course! |

T'was indeed Chez Bruno, which we haven't been to in years. DdM sounds wonderful, we shall add it to the list.

Do add it to your list but be warned it is not as posh as Bruno. Decor is a bit kitsch but food is great and fantastic value. |
