Hi Ian, yes I am going with my other half and my friend and his son are also going in their car,
I am going in her BMW Z4 as the V12 is not on the road yet. We are sailing with P&O from Dover to Calais on Thursday morning and then a 250 mile or so drive to Ecommoy where we are camping as we did two years ago and travelling back on Monday afternoon.

If you get the chance, visit the Jaguar 'works' garage in Rue de la Sarthe. Can't miss it - the only little garage in a residential street. You'll soon figure out how they took all the overhead workshop photos of cars being prepped.

I'm heading down via early ferry on Friday 4th July, about 10 cars in our group. Roughing it in Pistonheads/Aston Owners Club private site on Bleu Nord (it's got a beer tent) and heading home via Sunday nightstop in Honfleur - shower, beer, seafood but not necessarily in that order. Always a brilliant weekend!
