Hi all,
She who was spawned from SWMO (8 year old daughter) has expressed an interest in driving down to the Spanish Villa we are staying at (Alicante) for a week in July..
Obviously would take the W218 as the ML is a bit of overkill for just two of us. Ive mapped it at 1,400 miles so 250 down to the Chunnel then maybe two days broken up with a night half way.
Has anybody got any advice of the best routes or great hotels to stay at? Also, Im pretty sure I heard a few horror stories about the French.... And their toll roads! Are they hideously expensive?
Any advice gratefully recieved.
Finally, I believe that the 218 adjusts headlights automatically? And experience of this?
Cheers
