Silver Black Mini Holiday Snaps

Here are some photos from our recent trip to the French/Spanish Pyrénees, we covered nearly 3000 miles and quite literally visited every major city in the South West, there were some mighty mountains and testing mountain passes/hairpins

petrol was slightly cheaper than in the UK especially Andorra @ approximately 75p/l and we did manage to get a glance of the impressive Millau bridge :




























and here's a collage of some photographic panoramic views, hint - spot the Minis, enjoy :
