Requested a renault clio (Category A) but somehow managed a Megane Scenic upgrade (Category F)despite booking on the internet weeks in advance. It was my first go at driving abroad so wanted the smallest car possible to make it as pleasant as possible. I too had to tend with the hairpin switchback corners but from the comfort of a mid-size people carrier, trying to overtake wannabe Tour de France riders on blind bends and the praying I didn't have to use the car's<BR/>pointless electronic handbrake gizmo (not easy to operate if you need to do a hill-start).
