IM seriously contemplating doing this! will run it by the wife as it falls on our 1 year wedding anniversary. would combine it with a trip to Bordeaux, Zaragaza, Bacelona (Wife wifes home town) to visit the in-laws and finally Bilbao. It works out to be a round trip of 1600 miles which would seriously test the MR2.

Does anyone have any tips on preparing for such a trip? full service is a given, but are there any neccesity tools/spares that may prove useful should I have a problem?

Was thinking to make a check list of things to take, such as oil, spare nuts/bolts, metal tape (pretty useful stuff for bodge repairs!!)

My car is standard, and has not had any bush, brake or suspension replacements or upgrades.

Thanks!!!
