Here's a jolly useful and detailed little companion for any of you travelling in France. Subtitled 200 Things for Car Enthusiasts to See and Do, you may be a little surprised to know- as I was- just how many shows, museums, galleries, exhibitions and rallies France offered for those travellers with an interest in automobiles.- Big End. As our closest geographical neighbour, France remains as an immense attraction for drivers of all types, whether holiday making, attending car club expeditions, or just traipsing across the Channel for a slice of relative Gallic freedom. Whether we remain in the EU, or not, France will always offers a wealth of attractions, most notably to motorists, either travelling there by ferry, or via the Channel tunnel. Naturally I always arm myself with Michelin maps and the firms restaurant and accommodation guide, as well as the most recent sites directory, whenever tackling French trips. However, a new addition to my car's glovebox will be this marvellous guide. Colourful illustrated across several neatly and practically filed subjects, from Museums, to Shows & Tours, Marketplaces, Motorsport and even Racing Circuits, it is well detailed, seasonally appropriate and editorially interesting. Divided into five regions, each chapter carries a wealth of information that answers all manner of motorists questions. It is fun, useful and a must-have for any planned French excursion.- Iain P W Robertson. Do you go on holiday to France and want to know where there is something to do or see in your car? Buy this booklet. It is packed with museums, contest of elegances and tours, fairs, interesting shops, sports events and circuit locations. Neatly classified by region with all necessary info, such as address, phone number, website and overview cards.- Klassiek & techniek. Show Less
