Got back from our six week French trip on last Tuesday afternoon. Started in Normandy and Brittany and then down to Carcassonne to stay with friends nearby. Montpelier next and then up to Clermont Ferrand, Beaujolais, Burgundy, Champagne and finally Montreuil sur Mer. Turns out we did 3,326 miles at an average of 41.59mpg. The mileage varied a lot ranging from 34.01mpg to 53.63mpg. Out of interest how does this compare with other Plus Fours. It would be interesting to know.
The car behaved itself with three exceptions. About ten days in I got a spurious fault report from the overseer which didn't clear so put the LCD screen out of action for the rest of the trip. Secondly the passenger door lock broke on Aug 12. We managed to get it shut and stay shut but we were down to a one door car for the rest of the trip. Third exception was when we rolled onto our drive only to find the driver’s door wouldn’t open. It had been playing up a bit but no joy. Fortunately the roof was down and we were both able to climb out. I’ve got it working again now 🤞 but it’s down to Krazy Horse in a few days. All in all a great trip.
