French trip

Evening all

I'm off to France this year for my hols, Driving holiday and i was wondering about my lights on the FF.
Do i need to do anything ?

I know about the following

Warning triangle
High viz vests
V5
Insurance doc.

Is there anything else that is a requirement or anything you could advise me on.

Many thanks

I've just read the info for the ferry info and they have stated that the breathalyser has been removed and is not a requirement anymore for some reason. Thumbs Up 2020 Porsche Panamera Turbo Hybrid (V FAST)

Re: French trip

Jay, I believe you need to carry a spare bulb kit too

On my 2010 TDV8 you can adjust the headlights for driving on the right by a simple lever at the back of the light module. Instructions in the owner manual.

Jay,

I'm not sure that the lights on my car are the same as on yours, but on mine you simply remove the back cover on the light unit and move a small lever to divert the dipped beam down and to the right. Takes two minutes.

Jay,

I don't know. I always assumed that little lever on my car moved the reflector to divert the beam. Presumably it would be the same on your car.

I will have a look at it in the morning.

Sorry Bryan i mean the indicators and all the rear lights. You can't carry spare LED's
I will have a look for the switch on mine as I'm sure it will be the same as yours. 2020 Porsche Panamera Turbo Hybrid (V FAST)
