Excited to see how you travel north now [emoji41]

More in a few days, as we're going to my son's graduation ceremony at the NCO school, as he's a career soldier.
He's now a junior sergeant and is assigned to the 7th BCA, in the mountain troops, near Grenoble

Toledo was also on our 2001 route, Julien. We were lucky enough to stay in the Parador overlooking the town. Stunning area. Excited to see how you travel north now [emoji41] How has the car been behaving?! Great, it didn't use any oil or water on 6000 Km (3750 miles), and the elise is near 100K mil...

Day 9 : Cueva Aventura = > Cordoba https://i90.servimg.com/u/f90/12/98/45/57/carte_29.png Road to Cordoba, we visited for 2 days.

Day 6, 7 and 8: Cueva Aventura A little rest after 5 days of driving. We went to Baza to see the Cascamorra festival. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascamorras The next day, we visited the Gorafe Desert with a guide in a 4x4, as the Elise wasn't the ideal vehicle for this type of trip. Unfortunatel...

Day 1 : Home => Bages I always enjoy taking the A75 after Clermont-Fd, and it’s the only free highway in France (except the bridge at Millau). https://i90.servimg.com/u/f90/12/98/45/57/carte_24.png Bages is a lovely village on the shore of the sea. https://i90.servimg.com/u/f90/12/98/45/57/20250910...

Below is the CarPlay installation in our 2004 S2 RHD: To remove the center console, you need a very short screwdriver to access the screw on the steering wheel side: https://i90.servimg.com/u/f90/12/98/45/57/20250812.jpg At the top, it's held in place by only two pins: Then you can easily remove the...

So everyone is back safely ?
Who was chased by the Alpine's Gendarmes ?

Don't hesitate to share photos and videos :

Hello, We're going on a road trip to the south of España at the beginning of September, and I'm wondering if we can turn off the heating, because even on cold, hot air ends up coming through the air ducts, and the whole space under the dashboard is very hot. https://i90.servimg.com/u/f90/12/98/45/57...
