There's the quick way to Le Mans - and then there's the fun way...
. But all the routes I plan have one thing in common – there are destinations along the way that help stitch it together. My geography is terrible at the best of times , so planning a Billy-no-mates route through France is no easy feat.
But what car to do it in? It’s a long journey, so you want something comfortable that can soak up the miles, but equally fast and fun for when you’re on the right roads. Enter the. The track-focused version of Ford’s muscle GT, and the most powerful Mustang to come to the UK, with 460hp from its 5.0-litre V8.
There’s no doubting it’s a big and heavy car, but the power delivery is the perfect distraction, with the feel of the naturally aspirated V8 reverberating in your chest as the revs build towards their 7,500rpm crescendo. Which is very addictive, as is the weight of the gear shift that makes it so unmistakably a muscle car.
While this isn’t a mountainous part of France, it’s by far one of the most picturesque and fun routes to take to Le Mans. After all, what’s the rush? The roads were completely deserted and took us through flat farmland, gorgeous villages, and on twisty, undulating roads through forests. This isn’t a route that you’d go out of your way to do on its own, but if you’re heading to Le Mans for the 24 Hours or the Classic, it must be one of the best to take.
