Re: Euro trip 2024 - Austria & Grossglockner

Ive been looking at the costs. It will be much closer to £3k than 4, if anyone baulking at the price, and besides some of that you would still be spending if you stay at home anyway. So good value for a trip you'll remember for life. Bucket list stuff. Man maths. You know it works :-) We've got anot...

Re: A4 vs earlier models. Newbie questions.

I'm only 500 miles into my new 4. Had a 3.5 before for 5 years, which I loved. I miss many aspects of the 3.5, but the 4 is better in all areas for me except; 1) comfort. Unlike those above, I find the 4 seats less comfortable, and not bigger inside when seated, than the 3.5. Everyone's body shape i...

I'm in weather permitting, I seem to remember last year (or year before) there was a route that came through Bloxham ?
Simon,yes we will route through Bloxham, and yes weather looking much better this time. It will be good to meet you at last.
