Eddy's 2007 European Tour
fasteddy:
This road trip consist on a short nine days travel between Germany and France. We rented a BMW 3-series diesel with a 6-speed manual transmission. (originally booked a Mercedes-Benz A-Class CDi not available) Later we find the considerable larger size 3-series is a challenge to find parking spots; but the parking sensors and GPS that came with the car comes in handy. Although we had brought a Garmin GPS of our own. It was good to compare performance of the two.
The trip started from Vancouver,Canada. Stop over at Calgary. Then fly directly to our hub in Frankfurt. There were several small excursions; but the major visits were two days at the IAA Frankfurt AutoShow, two days in Paris, France; and two days in the neighborhood of Stuttgart.
Fresh off the plane we visit a business associate and test drove some pretty slick Smart cars. Include a 125hp Roadster with Lambo doors, and a 115hp brand new 451 cabrio.
