If you only have 2 days, simply visit the north of France, Bretagne or Normandie - driving to the Alpes will be a marathon and you'll spend more time driving than enjoying the locals. l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

All set for our trip from Cornwall to France tomorrow - I could have taken the Freelander, god knows it would have been a darn sight cheaper!

Thanks for all your help guys.

Done the trips to the Alps in a Freelander 1 and Freelander 2, as well as the FFRR. There's only one way to do it....in a big torquey diesel V8. More space inside and just effortless.

5 minutes into our journey we nearly had it cut short.

Bloody mentalist. Thank the baby Jesus for Brembo's!

All went well with the tunnel, although delayed for over 2 hours so was knackered by the time we got to the other side and had to kip in the car for a bit.

Now kinda lost in Belgium, all part of the fun!
