Driving a classic car through Europe is pure romance, but it rewards planning. Have the car serviced before you leave and pack basic spares: belts, fuses, a spare tyre and a good toolkit.
Keep daily distances short and use small roads; old engines prefer steady speeds to motorways. Many countries also have low emission zones in city centres, so check the rules before you set off.
Most of all, leave room for detours. The best moments usually happen when you stop for coffee in a village you had never heard of.
