Car just back from France - first time it's been abroad for a long while. Behaved itself impeccably and overall achieved 28.1 MPG which I was delighted with - helped no doubt by Autoroutes and RN's - very little stop start/city driving.
Off to Germany in a few weeks to do Romantic Road and Black Forest.

That's great to hear! Really good fuel consumption. I don't imagine you did the whole trip at 56MPH either.

That's true but wasn't particularly caning it either and was conscious of seeing how well I could do on MPG front!

Brief update - did good tour in June of Belgium, Germany (Rhine Valley/Castle Route/Black Forest), Austria, Switzerland and then back through France.
The B 500 - Black Forest Route was fun and suited the car well - decent straights and some twisty bits.
Then did a whistle stop tour of NW England and Lakes in early September which was enjoyable and finally the Sprint up at Southport which BODA were supporting towards the end of that month.
It's been pleasing to do use the car more this year for the purpose it was acquired for - fast touring, in comfort.
