A few of us did this a couple of years ago 3 x 911SC's and me in my VX220.. drove through france then switzerland, stayed over in Lausanne and went to Ouchy for the day (village on Lake Geneva) from there headed to Nice then onto Monaco etc awesome roads matey.. we then headed up for the Le Man 24hr race where we camped for 3 days we went via the Milau bridge.. then headed home.. i could have got things in the wrong order as it was a while ago.. but you must do it!

Cheers

Nick

The brown porsche is " Rosewood " and that colour comes alive when the sun hits it.. This colour was re-released last year and is now called "Macadamia metallic" and was used on some of the new 911 Turbo press shots..

I'm staying in Nice as all the respectably priced accommodation was snapped up within a few hours of the new race date bring announced. Place we are staying has good reviews and underground private parking for my car
