Hi all

Dave and our sons are off to France on Tuesday, via Plymouth/Santander

They plan 3 days stay in Spain, then to travel up the West coast of France returning to Portsmouth around 20th Sept

Can someone just give me a checklist please of necessary documentation needed, think we have it all but just in case

Also any must take items they will not be able to get (ages 60, 35 and 23) so no child requirements needed

Urgent replies appreciated please

Thanks

Angie

Hi Gandalf5150-  It is a law in France that right hand drive vehicles must have correction deflectors on their headlamps regardless, I thought it may be because of having to use headlights in bad weather, which of course is a other requirment but not so, have read reports of police stopping motorists at tunnel exit in France and on the spot fines, some welcome heh! must catch a few out on a day trip for booze .  kiev
