Driving holiday through European countries

[pothole]

I concur with Germany.

The problem with France is that the Frog police are out to get you. It's a shame because the roads and scenery are fantastic. But enjoying your car in France could lead to big fines or worse (car confiscated etc).

Go to Germany, enjoy the autobahn and the 'Ring and give yourself some lasting memories!

And... Parking a car in France is considered a contact sport.

Thanks for your responses you've definitely sold Germany to me & taking in some tracks whilst I'm there, I'll get started on researching the places you mention and planning properly! The only thing that slightly concerns me with taking it on a track is the chance I'll crash the car into other cars or barriers due to having no experience at all. Is that common and will other drivers get really annoyed if I'm going a lot slower than they are initially whilst I feel my way into it?

Naw, just use your head and don't drive over it. Faster drivers will go around as long as you don't make any sudden unpredictable moves. At Nordschleife you can get a look at the track by hiring a "Ring Taxi" with a pro driver.
