Default Road Trip ! Rome-Swiss Alps-Zuffenhausen-Paris-London

I wanted to say hi to you guys and share a few pics from the trip i just did in my 944. I moved from Rome to London and this was the trip to take the 944 with me but with a few stops along the way.
2200 trouble free km in the 944 ( after a 3 year restauration )
I'll let you on the detailes later , i'm falling asleep now.
Here are a few teaser pics.

Great opportunity. We're all jealous. Is the car intentionally lowered or is the back full of heavy stuff?

Both ,lowered by the excentrics that are also modified for more adjustability and also fulllllll of just about anything you can think of.

Sorry for the late response, been busy at work lately.
Only thing i regret is that i had to do Swizzerland by night and i didn't get to see nothing ,it was also very foggy. I had to choose betwen the alps and the porsche museum ,if i did swizzerland by day i would have gotten to stuttgart by night, my choise was obvious.
I like the car very much all stripped with manual everything but on the trip i almost cried for a cruise control.
The photo in the field is at stonehenge that you can see in the backround , than and the one in the city were taken on 1'st of january after the trip.
Like promised here are some more photos.... as soon as i renew my rennlist membership
