Hello!

Has anyone driven into Spain from France recently?
Is there a long wait / lots of paperwork at the border? 

Thanks!

We drove through a month ago and didn't even have to slow down, no checks what so ever and that was in a big van

Thanks, David!

Will hire a big conspicuous yellow van for swift and unimpeded border dash ;)

Hi, I drove through last week - Came over the Pyrenees on the A136 - no border crossing at all.  Had downloaded the declaration France wants you to make - but as no border control, no-one checked it.
