Blois is on your Saumur, Tours, Nantes axis. If you don't have time to fit it in it is worth passing along the opposite, i.e. south, side of the Loire. I think it is a most attractive view.

Enjoy your trip.  John

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.

I have the same issue on mine and LR warranty have rejected my request for it to be fixed under extended warranty scheme.

I plan to undertake the work myself now using the following guide.

 2019 L405 SDV8 Autobiography
2023 Defender P400e HSE X-dynamic - gone
2020 Defender P300 SE - gone

2019 Jaguar F-Pace SVR - gone
2013 SDV8 Autobiography - gone
2011 L322 TDV8 Vogue SE - gone
2006 L322 3.6 Vogue Se - gone
1999 P38 4.0 se - gone
199? Classic 3.5 - gone

If you’re in Saumur Stan, I recommend a visit to Gratien & Meyer - excellent sparkling wines

@buz..tailgate is fine , opens and closes perfectly..
here's a pic from a different angle and you can see its ok,

Yep, looks okay on the later pics. Must have been a trick of the light on the older photo.

Enjoy your hols Stan. 2019 L405 SDV8 Autobiography

Have just been thinking myself that a drive to France In my new rr would be interesting. (Haven't driven there for years). Tours for Champaign sounded good.

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? Geoff
