Help
We need some advise. We are travelling through Spain on 13th October. I believe that this weekend is a holiday weekend in Spain. We need to stock up with beer before we get into Morocco. So the question is are the shops and supermarkets open on Saturday 13th  For use of a 4x4 site and driver training pm me

Hi Andrew,
The actual holiday is Friday 12th (one week from today), so whilst a lot of people will be taking it as a long weekend, as far as I know the shops will be open on Saturday 13th.
If you're only worried about re-filling the boot up with beer rations though.....just go to a petrol station (or several) and raid the fridge....most service stations (even small'ish ones) sell beer, wine and cava etc.
Which direction are you heading through Spain? I guess you'll probably all be going straight down the AP-7 from France, through Catalunya and Valencia towards the south??
If you need any more info to plan your trip through Spain, let me know and I'll do my best ok?

Just checked (was on a call to Spain at the time ). 12th is columbus day, but 13th shops should be open as normal (in the most part) so you shouldn't have a problem getting supplies TDV6 HSE Black, Black Wheels /MTR's, Black RRS front/rear LR badge (tbf) Black Leather, Black Glass, Black TowB, Shiny Tasmods, Dull Mantec, White (& Orange) Reflective D3 Sticker, Black steering wheel badge, black air intake. Optima & Traxide dual battery setup.
Need black RRS wheel centre caps.
Now with added Engel.....
We D3, therefore we are..........

Never mind....and to think I was going to wait by the side of the AP-7 motorway in Barcelona and hand you all bottles of cold beer through your windows as you drove past 2006 TDV6 SE Auto Buckingham Blue
