  • A4 Avant 51 - headlights for France 3 Aug 2006 (Forum)
    I would like to adjust my headlights for driving in France? I am informed that there is "a lever" behind the headlight for flipping them? Can any one shed any light on where this lever might be - drivers side, passenger side, and what it might look like etc.
  • 04 Passat headlight adjust for France 21 May 2005 (Forum)
    Hi there I'm about to go to France in the very near future and I've been told there's a switch to adjust the headlight beam for driving on the right. The headlights aren't easy to get to and I'm not having much luck - is this one for the garage to do?

  • France - 30 Years behind UK 21 Dec 2008 (Forum)
    Expats have said that much of France is like the UK used to be some 30 years or so ago. I remember filling up with petrol close to Dover in past times (maybe even 30 years ago) because the price in France was so ferocious. It's like old times - diesel fuel is more or less the same price now after the Pound has dropped against the Euro, but petrol is going to cost you around £1.20 a litre.

  • France - Whats the "T" stand for on road 18 Jun 2007 (Forum)
    Touring last year on the D420 in France we followed the signs & suddenly found ourselves on a very narrow road ( in fact so narrow had to turn caravan towing mirrors in & inch our way over a bridge) we then noticed on the next sign post that it was the D420t & the T was very small!
  • Skiing in France ? 17 Dec 2015 (Forum)
    Driving to the south of France just after Christmas to do some skiing and sightseeing; fun drive in a day, via EuroTunnel ! - anyone got any advice who's been there : 1. Cheap place to stay ! Some of the chalets are mega-expensive, and there's only 2.5 of us... looks like it's cheaper to stay somewhere down the mountains... 2.
  • 2009 Tour de France [Read Only] 27 Jul 2009 (Forum)
    Good day for Britain in the Tour de France. Mark Cavendish won the stage in Paris making his fifth stage win and a new British record. Bradley Wiggins came fourth overall and another British best. Congratulations to them both. I realise this isn't strictly motoring related, but could the Mods let it run to see if it has legs?
  • Michelin trackday tyres in France? 25 Jun 2005 (Forum)
    There is only one distributor in the UK (hence the vastly inflated prices). I'm going to a trackday in France in July, and I wonder whether anyone could offer advice on if it's cheaper to get them there, and if they could suggest any retailers? TIA, Bruce
  • Buying car in France 18 Aug 2002 (Forum)
    I'm off to be a student for a year near Paris. Despite being the proud owner of a 2001 VW Polo I want to buy a cheap car in France for use while I'm over there. The prangs that are synonymous with Parisian driving and the crime that a UK reg'd car attracts make it a no-brainer. Have up to £800 to spend - can anyone offer any advice?

  • Check your headlight beam if travelling to France. 28 May 2008 (Forum)
    Just returned from a couple of weeks touring around France and thought that you guys may appreciate a tip. Make sure that you have adjusted your headlights. On two different motorway service areas we noticed that the French Police were pulling UK reg cars over and putting one of those headlight alignment machines onto the lights.
