    Completly the wrong forum but yes I drove down to malaga last month from Rosslare, on a bike. ferry to Cherbourge, drove down the coast of france via Bordoux to the spanish border at san sebastion, then straight down spain via madrid to malaga. It's about 12/1300 miles. We were limited to 90/100 mile fuel stops and to get the num bum awake and did it in 2 1/2 days (no site seeing) the ferry dropped us at miday so the first day we didn't achieve much. In a car it could be done in 2 days no bother I'd say. TBH though it's gruelling to drive straight down, if I was to do it again I'd take 4/5 days and have a look around.

    A tip, try not to go on reserve in France, in some spots it 40/50K between petrol stations unless you take detours into small villages and get lost:eek:
