Lake Orta is a lovely spot for sure. Get that hard top off and use the hood would be my recommendation - it transforms the experience especially when touring. Enjoy.

We totally agree about Orta, we booked last year because we were too late to book Como and Orta was a bit cheaper, but we loved it so didn’t even consider at Como this year (although I’m sure it’s very nice too). I have considered buying a soft top for it for these kinda trips, but they’re so expensive I’ve just stuck with the hardtop - also my head will burn so quickly 😂

Can recommend the "routes des cretes" between Cassis and La Ciotat. Breathtaking views over the coastline. Did you watch Harry's Garage video of the Route Napoleon? Also seems worth a detour!

I hope you’re enjoying it as much as I am. I did spot an Exige in France last year, must be a few around. Thanks for your support!

When you're in Dijon, feel free to contact me as I live there, maybe we can meet and have a chat/drink or even drive a bit of road together with my Elise S3, including the Route des Grands Crus as you enjoy wine and show you around some of the vinyeards! And yeah, AC is a must have, contrary to what people say. I'd rather have the extra weight and enjoy the car and, rather than cooking in it. Good luck for the road trip, hope everything goes well and you have a great time!

That’s very kind! Love the lotus community 🙌🏻 if I wasn’t with my finance I’d definitely take you up on that offer sounds dreamy, but after 9 hours in the car today, I think she’d prefer to not hear any more about Lotus’s and we’re straight off to Cotignac in the morning. Totally agree with you, A/C made things very comfortable today. Thanks for your support, I’ll keep my eyes peeled for your S3 while I’m here 👀

@@BritishRacingGreens Indeed the Lotus community is amazing! Ah yeah I totally get that, 9h of Lotus is already a lot in one day even when you like the car! If you want to take a drink, or have a short city center tour with no mention of Lotus, I'm free also :) Can also be done when you're on your way back home if you come back here!

@@BritishRacingGreens Oh also when you're near the French/Swiss border, you can make a stop at the "Mont d'Or" point of view near Metabief to see a cool view into Switzerland and at the "Lac de Saint Point" to stretch your legs. Also there is the the "Dent de Vaulion" near the "Lac de Joux" with some breathtaking views of the lake (maybe you're already going there, the blue line that shows your route is a bit wide ahah) Or even more South you have the "Col de la Faucille" with an amazing view above the "Lac Léman" and the "Mont Blanc". Aim for Gex and go up, and then either go to Mijoux to then see the "Lac de Vouglans" and then go the "Belvédère des 4 lacs", or go to Les Rousses to go straight to the "Belvédère". In Martigny CH, you have the Fondation Pierre Granada with amazing art and car collection. And in Sion cool castles to see.

Thanks for taking the time to share those tips, very kind! I’ve dropped some pins in Google maps in case we come close or can afford a little diversion to check out some of those spots.

I am very jealous! Just bought my first lotus this week and planning on doing a Euro trip next year 😊, how much was the apple car play system? And is it a plug and plays system?

Thanks for your support and congrats on buying your own Lotus, warning - they're addictive! I have a terrible memory, but with a couple of discounts I think the Carplay stereo was just over £200, it was a fairly simple plug and play solution, I have a video specifically about fitting it here - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Zr-fdriimcq1qKM.html
