That's quite a trip.....good luck with it. The Sprite looks terrified!! Could you not get a respray in HK? Have to say - doesn't look like it NEEDS a respray anyway!

Should be a fun trip. Ive checked online and the vessel arrived in Valencia yesterday and the container was unloaded and placed onto another vessel due to arrive in Naples on Monday ( tomorrow ). I expect it will take 3 or 4 days for the cars to clear customs and be unloaded into the freight forwarders warehouse in Naples. The Great Leader ( er indoors ) and I will be flying from Hong Kong to the UK on Wednesday night and will spend a few days in the UK before we fly down to Naples on the afternoon of Thursday 29th May from Gatwick. We will stop in a local hotel for the night before going with our friend Keith to collect both the Morris and Keith's Frog Eye Sprite.

From there, we will drive up to Rome on the 30th May.

Our Itinerary is shown below :D

When we hit Folkestone on the last leg, we will drop off at Canterbury Convertibles and have a look at their stock as I would very much like to buy another Morris and I really don't have the time to do a full restoration again like I did with Daisy.

.....all the hotels we are staying in during the trip will have WIFI, so I am planning to upload photos and provide updates as the trip progresses. When the trip is over, I will be making a youtube video of all the trip highlights :)

The best place to see the updates are on Daisy's facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/morrisminorhongkong[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]
