Une traduction par Google.
Dans un mois, je prévois de voyager de Bilbao à Biarritz, en passant par le centre-sud de la France, jusqu'à Perpignan et enfin Toulouse. Y a-t-il des musées automobiles ou, j'espère, des attractions VW ? Si vous êtes au courant de quelque chose comme ça, pouvez-vous s'il vous plaît partager cette information avec moi.
Merci. Gracias. Eskerrik asko.
Thanks,
Carl from USA |

Hi, not so sure if you will appreciate my suggestions, maybe you will be moving by train or on the road with a car:
If you are moving from Spain into France and do not mind some detour, you could try to stop by the Mercedes-Benz factory in Vitoria-Gasteiz.
Then, much more VW-related, there's Volkswagen Navarra factory in Pamplona-Arazuri, at the Landaben estate.
In France, you could try experience PAU (ville) and if lucky, drive trough the "city circuit" like if you were racing in it.
In your description you mention several locations: Bilbao, Biarritz, Perpignam, Toulouse... they do not appear on a logical order, so do not know. |

Thanks very much for this. After Bilbao, We will be traveling by car from Atlantic to Mediterranean, on the French side of the Pyrenees, so we can visit the old race course in Pau. I have also discovered that there is a VW club in Perpignan. I hope to make contact with them. Thanks again for your reply |

Hi!
I live in Bilbao.
Here is the "Torre Loizaga collection", perhaps the biggest Rolls Royce collection in the world.

If you want know more about Bilbao & the VW scene here, let me know.
I wish you have a nice journey.

Felipe,
Gabon!
We have ended our stay in Bilbao and are now on the French side of the Pyrenees heading to the Mediterranean.
But thanks for your kind reply.
Your city is great. The people, food (pil pil) and culture are awesome.
And of course, the Guggenheim museum.
Thanks again
Carl |
