I've booked up for this mega journey in July , I e had my 996 for a few months now , no real problems so far but this should be a real test for it !
First day 500 miles to Folkestone
Then tunnel and down to Dijon for the night
Third day route napoleon and staying at a hotel near Verdon Gorge for two nights
Then down to menton in the riviera for 8 days
Then start heading north again with various stop overs .
We toured FRance last year in an Audi s5 , it performed perfectly through the alps into Switzerland,Italy via the grand St. Bernard pass .
I hope the 996 is as reliable, I'm slightly paranoid about it ,being as it's 18 years old ! I'll get it serviced before I go and probably replace the front tyres , they have plenty of tread but are 7 years old , I think this may be a trip too far for them .
