Journey there and back is great part of the trip - possibly better even when going to the Classic. Caen ferry possibly best but it's good seeing cars on the drag down from Calais and stopping at services (but not filling up there).
Autoroute with toll tag pretty good - French repairs to excellent road surfaces by SE England standards are done over a km or so of road at time and roll repair gang up carriageway as they do it. UK likes to have maximum carnage for 2 or 3 years and delays possible until DEC 2025 signs!
Old roads north of Le Man and south to Hotel De France are great and their supermarkets pretty excellent too (especially away from Arnage) plus driving public bits of track including Indianapolis on Monday before departure.
Plus we don't pack light
