What a trip! Glad you got to tick all the boxes you had planned. Its made me start planning an Andorra trip for next spring.

 

Thank you!

You definitely should...great driving up from the French side and down into Sort from the Spanish side. Don't know what the Eastern approach from Spain is like, but I imagine good!

 

Just found out this precious post; OP, thank you for your time and dedication on this!
Any chance you can share with us your google maps link for your route?

 

Thank you! Google links and map imagery inserted in-line with each post. I can't precisely get the whole thing in one map because there are too many waypoints. Note that I was able to do most of it this morning, which means the roads should be open. However, when passes are closed in the winter, google maps takes away the option to use that road. It had the windy way up to El Pas de la Casa (Andorra) as closed when we did it, as it does now, but that was open.

 

great trip, and great post. thanks for all of the details and pictures.

 

This is the best ED travel log I have seen! Thanks for the pics and commentary. Made me hungry more than once! Hopefully, I have an ED in the near future myself. I have an allocation for a '26 Targa 4S to be built in March and hope for an ED in April/May. However, I also have a request to add PTS and if I can get that allocation, it would probably be built late summer (and could be a '27) for an ED in early fall. Obviously, my ED plans are contingent on getting an ED allocation. This would be my second Porsche ED, the first was for a '17 Targa 4S. I have also experienced ED's with MB and BMW and BMW was by far the best delivery experience of the three. I agree with your assessment of BMW, that BMW has dropped the ball by dropping ED. The Welt is spectacular! However, there are no new BMW's I want to own.

 

Thank you! The best was my goal. There were always spectacular ED threads on Bimmerpost and I wanted to bring that flavor here. I haven't done MB ED, but I agree the BMW experience I had (only once) was phenomenal. I liked the Porsche track part and the restaurant was a nice touch, but BMW had it ironed out like magic on the whole. There is no such thing as an ED allocation in reality. Once you get the allocation for the car, just start reaching out to Sean to get on his list. I think your best chance is either before peak summer or after peak fall. You might just make that!

 

Thanks for the advice. I do have my Porsche Order Number. When I got my ED set up in late 2016, it was much easier, and free! So do you have correct Sean's email, or are my guesses: sean.nicholas@porsche.us or just european.delivery@porsche.us correct?

 

Don’t know if he has a personal one. I’ve been using this one: European.Delivery@porsche.us

just email with details about your car, commission number, what you’d like to do. Leipzig is likely, Zuff may be impossible. Make sure both options are on the build too…the prices one and the transport one.

 

Very cool trip!!!
I just did ED myself in July/August. Did 7 countries overall. I did two track days (Nordschleife and Spa). I did not even want to think about doing TF so created my trip around the two different track days. I also got some photos from the guys on the side of the track but I absolutely do not get why they need to angle the camera when they take the shots. So dumb. At Spa, the organizer had their own photographer and I got all images for free. That was nice.

 

Thanks! Remind me again, did you do your track days with Ron at RSR?

 

No, it was curbstone.net. Great guy. I think RSR actually gets spots from him and charges more.

 

I think I remember you mentioning that in another thread - glad you got those experiences!

Update...my car is at the port as of a few hours ago and the RCC Leader (Stena Glovis) just docked. That'd be a Thanksgiving miracle if it made that boat. Not holding my breath.

 

Simply amazing, what a trip. Your pics are beautiful, I wish I took more like this.

Mr Influencer probably didn't want to take time out of his day to fill out a bit of extra ED paperwork, too busy making reels.

 

Nice. Crossing my fingers for you.
