Here's the fastest route on a map (I drove the route myself). It's a large file (high-resolution) and fit to print in colour.

And here is the map in screen quality (lo-res).

Apart from any motoring problems what are the potential pitfalls of driving through all those countries en route?

I need help on this my clk is a 2000 model bought secondhand in 2002 and still own the car in my name

I assumed only cars under 5 yrs would be allowed into trnc, from what i just read i can ship my car over and use it there and after a yr pay the local tax even though its now 10yrs old and in my name for the last 8yrs I should not have any problems at customs there
