Well all we have to do is drive to Calais this morning, stay over catch ferry in the morning then thats the holiday all over. Will definately do this again but after seeing and going through the Alps i would strongly recommend at least 4 days to do them as there is just so much to see and the sceenery is just so dramatic and stunning. Any one with a convertible just has to do this at least once in a life time as it is well worth it. After doing this it has just made me want to come back and do it again even more.
Thanks all will post more pics up when we get back home.

Stunning pictures! Can't wait to see more.

Hopefully I can sort myself out and do the euro cruise I've been wanting to do for the last 2 years - which is why I bought the Zeds in the first place.

Well the final update.
Arrived back home 1300hrs after completing 3420mls at an average of 32mpg not a bad return for a 3.0. Car behaved exceptionally hardley used any oil or water through out the trip, in fact i havent put any in whatsoever but i do need to top up at the weekend. I have to admit even after doing the Pyrenees last year the Alps has got to be the ultimate thing to do. I am in the process of sending Gaz some video footage going through the Stelvio passe which he is kindly going to add to the org youtube page.

Thanks for sorting it Gaz.
No problem Billz. I'll add the other vids when you have sent them over.

I particularly liked the Sat Nav direction at the end of the video. Sounds like it wanted you to have another go... :coolsteer)
