Flying down this year, but looking to drive next year. Tolls should be around £90 each way?
Fooking expensive compared to flying but waaaaay more fun. Given you can only do about 2.5hrs anyway before needing to fill up, it's a chance for a break.

Only 2.5 hours? I collected my s2000 from the north of the country and 3 hours later I still had over a third of a tank left!

I can imagine the fuel when you're down there gets eaten up quickly with the good weather

in my 3rd week of ownership. Its such an awesome car. Its a perfect balanace of many things.

OUt of interest, is anyone going down for the last weekend of aug? There is a festival called fete de la figue in sollies pointe. definitely worth a visit and some great roads on the way

Driving down mainly toll free as in no hurry (and I'm a tight Yorkshireman!!)I'll let you know about the mpg.

And Rhauri, is the bridge open now then?

2 sleeps to go!!
