Techie... Your lot had graphics last year, did you have any digital templates for that or was it hit and hope...?

The camo stuff was just freehand by Benny at Back-on-Track. Most of the rest of the stuff was either off the shelf or customised/tweaked bits from Hollographics.

Yep. Either left it on too long, or the paintwork underneath wasn't perfect and my removal technique was a little rough. :blush:

Autoroutes are fine and I know plenty of automated fuel places around Le Mans town. If the hotel is the one I think it is, we're almost next door to a supermarket with a filling station that has at least one 24hr unmanned pump. thumbsup

no they don't and by law they have to publish where they will be on the motorway but if you stick to 140 kmp it is fine and one think under 200kmp there is a fine of 400 euro maximum
over 200 kmp your car will be taken away from you you will lose your license and will go to court the following day for a possible judgment plus your license will be send back to the British consulate :angry:

another thing any device like on my car to scan for possible camera or speed gun will be confiscated and a possible fine of a £1000......;)
everytime i go abroad i set mine at 195 kmp and if i go over that the system blip hard
never easy to have a light foot on a dead empty motorway at 6 am the morning :P
