Are you taking the wife's "baby" with you.
At least you will be guaranteed some sunshine, this summer's been awful. |

Sadly not going in the car. It costs me more to drive it to the airport and park it than it does to fly two of us return to Spain.
I will do it soon however. Blackrose |

Well BR I can't blame you for that, it's a bad word long drive, if I ever do it again it will be a one way trip

Rusty, done it a few times but on motorbikes. I would take a week or so and enjoy the run down, same coming back, that way it's more of a pleasure if a tad more expensive lol.

I was in Lloret de Mar this week, and I saw a beautiful example of a White Gold Saloon MK1 travelling from Lloret towards Blanes
Did not get a chance to see the reg details
