3. The rally starts with an interesting
day Regularities and Tests in
Flanders over some well - rallied
roads. Along the way there will be
many poignant reminders of the
battles fought between 1914 and
1918. From there it's on to Spa,
another famous rally - and race -
town for yet more competitive
sections.

6. The next few days see us enter
Germany and drive through the
Eifel with its wonderful winding
roads and lush vegetation. Then,
onwards through the former East
Germany,where away from the
main cities,one could often
imagine being in the 1960s before
arriving in the Czech capital
Prague for our first rest day.

9. Fully refreshed, we head southeast
through the Czech Republic, Austria,
Hungary and Romania-four countries in
five days. Rallying is a popular short in
these parts and we are relying on local
enthusiasts for some excellent and varied
tests and Regularities. Our final rest day
is in the Romanian capital Bucharest
where the world's largest parliamentary
building, constructed in the 1980s by
formed dictator Nicolae Ceausescu,will be
hard to miss.

12. From Bucharest we head east and spend a
night on the shores of the Black Sea, before
heading back into the mountains around one
of Bulgaria's majon wine centres,Plovdiv.
The final frontien on the event takes us into
Turkey, where we will stay near the narrow
straits of the Dardenelles. Finally, we skirt the
coast of the sea of Marmara before arriving in
lstanbul and our luxury hotel overlooking the
Bosphorus,the gateway Asia.
