I am just back from a fantastic bit of 'euro-leafing' to Switzerland, for a joint event organized by the French club - Les Temps Des Series and the Land Rovers of Switzerland club. We stayed on a Swiss Army barracks, which gave us access to one of their off road training areas, and had permission to use their land for green laning, and also had permission from the local mayor to use the beautiful mountain areas for green laning too, which are out of bounds to all but farm traffic.

However, for me, just the journey there is a huge part of the fun of 'euro-leafing' and I had a great round trip on about 1300 miles, and the old series one never missed a beat on its first trip abroad - so I was dead chuffed about that!

 

My Series One is no longer a 'ferry' virgin!
