Just got back from my 2 week holiday from Central Scotland > Devon, England > Dover > Calais > Brugge > Lille > Calais > Dover > York > Central Scotland.

Had a great time and the roof was down for virtually every single mile.

Even although the car is standard, it got plenty of looks in both the UK and Europe. The amazing thing in so many miles of driving was that I only saw 2 other Z coupes, and no roadsters on the road. One coupe was an Azure in Torquay which I only saw once and another was in Brugge and I think it was Gunmetal.

Didn't have any issues with the 350Z and it just passed the 10k miles mark on the way home.

The car also made it into the local papers in Lille via a guy that works in the hotel we were staying at. The article was to do with his passion for cars and he used mines for the pictures with my permission. I got a few copies of the paper so I will try and scan the article later or tomorrow and see if anyone has time to translate what it says :D

Got over 600 pics to download from the camera so away to do that now :D

We just had 12 days away but didn’t travel as far as you though. Only to the New forest back to Swindon and then to Croyde in Devon. Didn’t see any ccs in the New forest. But did see a nice modded silver cc in Croyde.

Been back to Swindon for 3 days and its like the cc capitol of the world. Today I have driven to work, which is only a 5 minute drive and I have seen 2 black modded cc's. Bloody clones!! :evil:

Saw a number of CC's in Lille, 307CC is very popular as well. Actually couldn't believe how loyal the locals are to French manufacturers with the amount of Pugs, Renaults and Citroens.

Maybe you will get a 350Z for your next car Dabz :)
