I fully realise that this post borders on heresy and that we are in danger of having our membership withdrawn, but on 15 June we are off for 3 weeks to the Italian Lakes in my male menopause special instead of our Autocruise Starspirit.
So if you see the batmobile flashing its lights and the occupants waving at you, you will know we really are MHF guys in a cunning disguise.
Route will be Colmar, Stelvio (driving the famous Stelvio Pass) and then staying at Garda, Como and Maggiore before returning via Switzerland and France.
Before we are ex-communicated, we have booked a September trip down to the Dordogne in the Starspirit so please be gentle with us.

The three TVRs would have been parked up waiting for the 911s to catch up
Don't get taken in by Clarkson prattling on about TVR unreliability....we have had our Tuscan for 8 years and 40K miles with no problems whatsoever. A damn sight more reliable than my Toyota Avensis which had a new gearbox, turbo, shock absorber and wheel bearing before it had covered 15,000 miles .
We had a Chimera for 2 years before the Tuscan.... again no problems.
Just realised that with this post, I am now asking for trouble and yes, we have AA full breakdown cover

We also had a string of TVR's, 2 Tuscans and a Chim. Used to be great fun touring through France until Le Flic became really serious about exceeding the speed limits.
Have a much bigger engine these days though the 0 to 60 is a little slower
My first continental tour was as exciting as yours will be.
France, Switzerland and onto Italy. Ending up on the Venitian Lido for a weeks camping.
Return trip was via Austria, We were in Innsbruck when Marilyn Monroe died.
Thro a bit of Germany. Luxembourg Belgium and back into France.
That was in 1961 in a Ford Zodiac, home made roof box full of camping gear.. It was white and the registration number was 3565 UK
Dad didn`t do too bad for a miner.
I was a mere strippling of 11 and still remember quite a lot of the journey.
Mum didn`t realise that people over the water could not understand us, but we got by.

Now that it just the vehicle to swish over the St.Gothard pass with.
