altitude, sept 2024 – review
In September 2024 we took 20 performance cars and supercars for 7 days of automotive fun in the shape of our ‘Altitude’ European Road Trip. This trip took us to the Alps in both Italy and Switzerland, to drive some highlight roads in the area.
As ever on our tours the mix of cars was eclectic and exotic – modern day sports cars such as Caymans & Boxters rubbed shoulders with a Mclaren 600LT, a Chevrolet Corvette C8, Audi R8, a Porsche 991 GT3 and a 992 Turbo S.
As for the performance cars there was a trusty Yaris GR then our Golf R estate, Audi TTRS, Toyota Supra, BMW M4 and M240i, Mini JCW. The noise on this trip was brought by a Jaguar F-Type R, Audi RS6 and the now classic Nissan GTR R35.
Daytime we ripped up as many mountain roads as we could before the weather decided to ruin play for a day in the Swiss Alps. We dug deep in to our bag of tricks and planned a new route to make the most of our trip that day, taking us round to the hotel a little earlier than originally planned that night, but that meant we could maximise our time at the huge water-park on the back of the hotel that night, before a group dinner bringing everyone together again in the evening.
All of a sudden we were heading through Germany, some via the Black Forest, some on the de-restricted Autobahns, for the final night dinner and drinks, Bavarian style.
Fuel was burnt, food eaten, drinks consumed, frowns and smiles were expressed, new friends were made and good times were had.
