This next year or something similar http://www.xtrallusion.com/Adventure/x/4x4_by_Ref_1.htmlI fancy the winter one which £456 for 5 days including accommodation and meals. I know its a bit expensive if there is more then one person in your truck but could look at doing something similar on our own. The summer one would be lot cheaper if we camped What do people think

If we had enough interest say 10 trucks, i am sure we could negotiate a lot better price I was thinking about making it a proper holiday and sending 10 days out there including traveling. I was thinking about spending a day in monaco and from there start the journey home stopping off at Milan as they have great motor museums. And from there make are way back though the alps on our return leg home. I have have also looked into trip across Norway and seeing the northern lights

Hey Danny, it's a shame you got that infectious disease and can't work for two weeks ain't it! And don't worry about getting there and back I'll tow you back... Well at least to England then you can get the yellow taxi and save some fuel 
If it ain't broke, fix it before it does!! You know it will!!

Steve only jut noticed your post  That sounds great mate Got a copy of memory map for France in the week  Thanks Bern  Not looked at it in great deal as yet, but there are loads of unsurfaced roads all over the alps  In the snow they should be  Been looking around Fort de Tournoux as there appears to be loads of lanes/unsurfaced roads all over with loads of old forts to have look at  Will try and look at it in more detail of the next few weeks
