I Love this picture

A friend drove over from the UK last weekend and we went out and drove some passes.

We did Sustenpass, Grimsel, Furka, Gottard and Klausen.

Great weekend and i love this picture he took of my car with the Furka pass in the background.

Hope you enjoy.

I'll bet that was a blast. What a gorgeous view. It would look cool in black and white also.

Yes - have done the klausen several times before and on this trip. Its about an hour from my home.

Its very tight and bumpy - and near the top there is the danger of cows on the road! But it has some good bits a few tunnels.

My fav bit of road is heading up the southern part of the Furka.

The friend that joined me on this trip was driving a Renault Megane Coupe RS 250 - remapped to approx 300 bhp.
