• none - Australian visitor wants to lease car for 4 months 16 Jun 2010 (Forum)
  My niece and her friend fly into the south of France in July 2010 and return home in November, intending to drive round Western Europe, including the UK, for 4 months.  They would lease the car in France and return it there, not necessarily to the same city.

• Frankfurt - Limoges, route advice? 18 Apr 2009 (Forum)
  Here´s a good one for any of you into cross-European routes and routing. We´re heading out from Frankfurt across France to Argenton-sur-Creuse, just north of Limoges. I´m keen to stay on the German autobahn network as it´s free, and to avoid Paris which is where the TomTom seems to try to send me past. I was thinking Saarbrucken-Metz-Troyes, round Orleans and down, or maybe comeinto FRance at Mulhouse, cut round Dijon, across to Avallon-Bourges and Chateauroux.
• Honda Accord Tourer (2003 - 2008) - 2003 onwards - Offside Headlamp Bulb 28 Nov 2007 (Forum)
  I can touch the cover that goes over the back of the bulb housing but cannot get my hand in far enough to turn it, never mind reach in to change the bulb. Would have been an interesting discussion with the gendarmes if the offside bulb had gone in France!
• Why are British roads so rubbish? 18 Jul 2007 (Forum)
  A road near me (in UK) has just been scraped off (by one of those surface grinding machines) and they have resurfaced the whole road, they have nearly finished and the finished result is all bumpy. In France it would be very smooth.
• Is there a new French headlight law? 15 Nov 2004 (Forum)
  I am virtually certain that I read somewhere that from 1 October 2004 (or possibly 1 November 2004) that you are required to drive in France with head (side?) lights during daylight hours, during the winter. I ask only because having been in France (open roads without cars - oh joy!) for the last 10 days, only about 10-20% of cars were driving with their lights on.
