I've just got back from a 12-day trip through France and Italy in my Tin Snail - a 1988 2CV6 Dolly, which I have owned for 16 years. It was my daily driver for the first 5 years of ownership, and since then has enjoyed a more sedate existence as a summer hobby car. Yellow headlamps - gotta be done, really. Headlamp bulbs set to right-hand traffic. Kingpins and driveshaft sliding joints freshly greased (this will need doing again halfway through the trip).Legal necessities.Laden and ready for the off.Lovely DS ahead of us in the Shuttle queue. The 2CV's tyres touch native tarmac and the adventu

OK, second batch. Day 5 - Parma to Florence Pausing in the swirl of Vespas and Fiats to get an early morning coffee. Out into the countryside. Vineyards, rolling hills, blue skies, cypress trees. Couldn't be better. Pulled up behind this van at a petrol station to check the map, and when he went to set off he reversed gently but firmly into the front of the 2CV. Fortunately I took my foot off the brake and beeped the horn, so he just rolled it backwards, and the bumper and over-riders did their job. No damage to either vehicle, and he was awfully apologetic. We managed to clear the air with a mix of Italian, English and mime.Just glorious. Getting into the Apennines now. Left the 'main' road and took another zig-zag mountain climb up to the town of Montese, right across the 'spine' of Italy. Another case of leaving it in second gear and letting the 602 sing its heart out at max rpm.A stunning view at the top. We found a great pizzeria here!A group of bikers arrived while we were having lunch. One on another air-cooled flat-twin powered machine. The 2CV attracted a lot of interest here - a couple of old chaps had a long conversation with each other, looking through the windows and pointing to various features. I think they were reminiscing about the odd gear lever. More curves on the way down. Suspension doing its thing on this stretch. Winding through the valleys. Traffic building up on the approach to Firenze. Behind a Grande Panda. And safely parked up in our Florentine AirBnB, next to a Panda 4x4.We had a day in Florence, but I got up early to give the 2CV a checkover at this most southerly point of our trip. It hasn't used a drop of oil. But the nearside driveshaft gaiter has split open. Nothing to do but monitor and add some more grease. Speaking of which...I had been organised enough to bring the grease gun to do the king pins and driveshafts at the halfway stage, but had I been organised enough to see how much grease was in it? Nope! It managed two strokes be
