It also gives a better look at the only 2 single color examples in existence. I don't know where the silver one is, but I know the dark blue one is in Monaco.

The road to wÖrthersee

It has been sixty hours since I left home and thirty three hours since I last slept. I’m now over a thousand miles away and a week early for a show that I won’t see because I’ll leave before it even starts. Why? Because Wörthersee of course.



We would also be joined by more friends of Milestone71; in a fresh Audi RS6 Avant with a Wörthersee special vinyl wrap.



With the last checks performed…



… and everything secured…



… it was time to hit the road.



We kept ourselves amused with the odd bit of car culture spotting, thankfully.



After not a whole lot of time – relative to the overall journey at least – we arrived in Folkestone where we would depart the UK for mainland Europe.



I’m a complete and utter nerd, so was fascinated by my first trip on the EuroTunnel.
MEKO: Not if you watched Top Gear...idiot



With the jeep and trailer loaded onto the narrow train carriages, we would almost immediately set out on our sub-sea journey of 31.4 miles.



We didn’t even get a chance to tell a story or two before we emerged out the other side of the Channel in France.



Our first call of duty was to fill the jeep with diesel before heading off on the remaining 800+miles to Austria.
MEKO: We call SUVs a Jeep, don't know why haha it's actually Audi A7 there. I heard SUV first time in USA



At €1.37 a litre, diesel in France is a lot cheaper than the UK where it works out at around €1.83 for the same quantity.



From what I vaguely remember, it was around 10pm local time at this point.



With everyone eager, fuelled and full of enthusiasm it was almost time to set out on the longest part of the journey.



First, a committee was called to decide the route we would take south.



We had three options… Number one: Continue on down through France before cutting across into Germany and south into Austria. Number two: Head east from our current location and into Belgium before turning south into Germany, where we would spend a longer amount of time on the Autobahn. Number three: A little bit of number one and number two.



It was an easy decision in the end. The Autobahn awaited us.



Anyone who has tackled a long distance jaunt through the darkness will probably tell you the same thing…



There wasn’t really much of a dawn to speak of, just a slow increase in brightness…



By 7am it was time for a quick breakfast in one of the many indistinguishable German service stations.



The language barrier can be an issue in certain parts of Europe, but lots of pointing, smiling and thumbs up usually ends up with a good result.



You can just tell what the level of car culture is like in Germany when you see advertisements for air filters in restrooms.



… before finally reaching the Austrian border.



Almost immediately, the landscape changed to these absolutely stunning vistas which stretched in every direction.



Rod, I think I found our new Speedhunters HQ.



How can views like this not inspire you?



After thirteen and a half hours of driving through continental Europe, we finally reached our destination.











God please don't let the page freeze, pics are small
If it does, mod plase delete the post
