Geneva is a good show. Not been this year - I usually go during the week to avoid the crush at the weekends..

I'm heading back from Switzerland in the next few days with the car. Did you hit the snow last Saturday ? Was quite heavy in the Northern parts.

It was cold though!!

E902717 · 03-10-2010, 02:48 PM

beemerbird · 03-10-2010, 02:49 PM

Hey Paul glad you're back safe and sound and had a great time.

You took some pics. of the RS5 then as you said you would.

Some lovely looking motors in those pics.!!

E902717 · 03-10-2010, 02:52 PM

This part of the route on the way home was epic!! Only downside we had to do it in the dark! Got up at 4am to come home.

Thanks Helen

told you i would take some pics! It really was a brilliant road trip and show, didn't want to come home! Got pics of a white S5 at the show also.

the RS5 looked mean in the flesh it was hard to take pics of it though because of how bright the paint and lights were!

900 miles there and 690 back...Did Geneva to Calais in 5hrs 30mins

Would love to go myself some time, sounds great!

Yeah, not a fan of red, not sure why they're promoting it in that colour, but hey what do I know lol.

Now that is some excellent mileage coverage, well impressed.

Agree with that, all the other RS cars were painted in that burnt orange you can see in the pics it would have been good to see the RS5 in that colour!

Only 1, Hard to take decent pics of the cars when they let the public get in and out of them.

Jay_Jay · 03-10-2010, 03:36 PM

Awesome pics mate, thanks for sharing. Loving the F458, but what's up with the wheels on the Veyron? For £1 million + I don't want my alloys looking like 'Halfords' specials
