In a filthy diesel?! Just not cricket.

when the chassis is this good, it could be running on baked beans for all I care !!

BUT, I do take your point ... doing this trip in a V10 R8 or F-TYPE V8 with the roof down would have been unreal

BUT, I drove the car like it was its last day on earth and it still returned 40MPG somehow !! more euro's in my pocket !

Ok, so I have dug out the details on the trip that occurred in June, the itinerary was as follows:

The Andermatt loop incorporates 6 legs, our hotel is on the Furka Pass so already there. The total route is 190miles and can take 6+hrs. Have a read here to wet the appetite.

4th Leg (13th June 2015) - Lugano to Nurbergring (442miles)

This is going to a hard old slog but if we are going to get the opportunity to do a couple of laps of the 'ring then it has to be done. Hotel is opposite the circuit entrance and close to a casino in case anyone hasn't spent enough money on fuel.

Leg 5 - Nurbergring to home...
