First Z road trip .
Currently at Lake como having been forced to drive through central Milan after a crash on the autostrada
. Holy smoke was Milan a crazy place to drive through . I thought Paris was bad
I managed to get through unscathed .
The car in front did run a guy over crossing the road gave him a real bang and sent him rolling in the road .

Cheers smart bear

The car has been fantastic to drive through some of these roads .
Cheers to the guy I met coming over the San bernadino pass all of a sudden face to face with another roadster . Lights flashing and a wave and he was gone .

Awesome pics greg!
Planning a similar road trip once Betty is up and running....!
Will be travelling south from Holland, taking in the Stelvio and Grimsel passes and down into Italy then back via Portugal and France. Winter would be fun but thinking Spring next year is probably more viable.
You probably passed me in Vleuten as I'm sure you were on the A12 to get to Rotterdam - could have stopped by for a cuppa!
You gettting the ferry back tomorrow from Rotterdam? It's an awesome, relaxed way to get back to Blighty....

Cheers Andy , I have been keeping and eye on your updates re new roady ! Great looking colour .
We came up the 61 / 58 .
Up through cologne dusseldorf had a great run up though good weather no traffic 90 all the way the car has been a revelation this first road trip . I have done most of the passes in my old e46 vert . But did the susten and San bernadino this time , I cooked the brakes pretty badly on the bernadino as I was a little to enthusiastic so I decided the stelvio will have to wait till I sort the brakes out .
