It would save you lots of driving but it's not cheap this time of the year, around £450 one way with 1 cabin for the night. Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member SavMan Posted May 28, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted May 28, 2016 Can you guys update on fuel situation if you get a chance. I probably came through France at the worst time in Thursday/Friday and had to fuel every 70 miles. Each stop stop 40 mins. Didn't get back till late last night. I'm hoping this weekend will be better but who knows Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact at one point I stopped to fill up and was the only car on the forecourt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member PeteS Posted May 29, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted May 29, 2016 Central France on the autoroute is fine no restrictions and every station has some. Paris had shortages. But today going south it's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Patrick Posted May 30, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted May 30, 2016 Currently on the ferry from Portsmouth to Bilbao. Arrive Bilbao Tuesday morning and we'll be at Bassella late afternoon Tuesday. This leaves us Wednesday free to sight see as Jeep Camp is Thursday. I like those door logos. Are they permanent? Hope Stewart is carrying some :gasp: Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
