I've driven to Greece (and Back ) twice now, the last time was in a Mercedes Sprinter.

I managed to hit 110 on the Milan bypass - what a blast

So I take it you would recommend the zetec then, because my Mav begins to shiver and shake should I suggest we go over 70..... mph that is.

Tried the South of France in a Elldis Autoquest the year the south of france got flooded needless to say I will not be doing it again.... Im still trying to get the water out me wellies

floyd500b · 30-01-2009, 23:01

It really depend whether you want to have fun - The Mav would be more fun, the Zetec would be more efficient

forbefor · 30-01-2009, 23:09

I'm all for fun, but then sensibl,e would the kids be more comfy in the mav, there is more room but then again if anything goes wrong, hubby's company picks up the bill on the zetec

floyd500b · 30-01-2009, 23:13

It's a tough choice

Go with the Zetec and thrash the hell out of it

zippy656 · 30-01-2009, 23:14

or relax enjoy the trip

forbefor · 30-01-2009, 23:14

Good choice hubby says thrash it forget the cost
