As before, mr2big will be leading the drive on the French side of the journey as he has done this trip many times in the past.
Here is an itinerary that you must have, otherwise you will not be able to travel across on the Channel Tunnel. If you are allowed across, you may face fines if pulled over by the French traffic police. Some of these you should have anyway so it looks like more is there than there actually is:Compulsory itemsHeadlamp beam adjustment
GB sticker
Original registration document
Insurance certificate
Warning triangle
Reflective vest
Site Note: Remember to take the payment card you use to buy your tickets on the trip so as to use it for a quick automatic check-in. If you do not have your card, you can still check in, it just takes a bit longer.
