id forgotten how empty French roads are compared to ours! Calais to Reims in 2hrs. Cracking day, down the Folkestone was a pain with the M20 shut - but we knew that before started.
mX performed all good so far. NC Z-Sport is comfy place to be and car is stable at higher speeds too.
1 question. Does the boot get hot due to rear diff and exhaust silencer temps - I’m talking about 2hours of 90mph cruise?
So, here we are, end of day 4. Today we travelled from Grindelwald to St Moritz. So along all the passes today, just amazing, stunning roads and scenery. I must admit, we have been blessed again - roof down all day long bar 1 20min stint of rain.
The MX is good on these roads, you can use all the engine power and handling. Very very nice indeed.
185mls of pure fun and enjoyment.
tomorrow is the Stelvio, and on into Austria
we had the MX looked at in Grindelwald for a rear rumble. sounds like the left, but then the mech said maybe the right when he spun the wheels on the ramp with stephoscope listening. Anyway, no play in the wheels, and diff oil is all good. So advice, carry on, won’t be a problem.
the other problem we have, washer jets, drivers side dribble and passenger in-op (glad we rain-x the windscreen). So jobs for when get homE and sort of part of the adventure with an older car - which has been perfect for the road trip otherwise.
i’ll add some comments as we go - no pics (im afraid!!)
