Thanks Trevor, but I don't use them as I am too damn tight :eek::D and the RN roads are just as quick and nicer:cool:

I agree Graham, RN roads are great, more to see and you can always stop off at a village, stream or nature spot.
 
You're so right *****, David & Ann.
Those péages are real ripp-off :mad:. From North to South (Lille > Perpignan) it will cost me 120€. We can have more than once a decent meal in a restaurant for that price. And meanwhile we don't loose that much time on a RN and we can enjoy the landscape, villages and towns. You will never see this close-fisted belgian on a péage :rolleyes:
 
We're moaning about the cost of European tolls: What about the M6 around Birmingham? Taken as cost per kilometre that's got to be one of the most expensive in Europe

But have you ever met anyone who's ever used it.:eek: Probably one of the quietest motorways in Europe.

I know one guy you used that stretch, that was ME. Returning from Scotland, came across this M6 branch off, M6 to the right and M6 to the left, got confused, so took the one that looked shortest on my route map, Seeing as it was my first ever Highway trip in Britian in 34 years, and a sign saying (FREE) meaning the Highway, I found I had made the wrong choice. It cost me if I remember rightly, £8. I cussed, but put it down to experience. I wonder how much of that money went to subsidise our honarable MP's second home. :eek: :mad:
 
Allways use A5 to cut the M6 corner off:cool:. I have allways found that to be a good road. And Free:D.

Don't feel crossed Trev
It sure is a usefull link. At least I can cipher it out how much I gain avoiding toll ;):D
 
The A5 is free at the moment but wait till the muppets in Westminster get their way then you'll think the French tolls are a bargain.

Hi Don, there is a greenhorn (mlynnf50) wanting information regards Greece. I tried filling them in but did mention you are the expert on the Greece subject. Perhaps you can be of greater help than me.
