Best drives in the UK
dansmith180:
As above guys I've been doing some research and have found a few places and a very good website.
http://www.greatestdrivingroads.com/
But was looking for some first hand reviews from people who have the same or a very similar car. I've got a week off between the 27th July and 2nd August and fancy doing a road trip around some good roads in the UK. So where would you guys reccomend? I've heard good things about the Lake district and Yorkshire dales also some good stuff in Scotland and Wales.
The more detailed (road names anf what stretch) the better

The A4086 and A5 are probably why I have 9 points and a knackered gearbox... such great roads. :evilgrin: You do tend to get a bit carried away. :rolleye:

A537 cat and fiddle is my local "track" lol does have average speed cameras on now but from Macclesfield to the the pub they don't work but from the pub to Buxton they do (I'm up there atleast once a week on my bike)
A4212 from Bala North Wales, cracking road, can be quite high speed at parts. Definitely a really early morning road so you can have a good run.
A494 North Wales. Again a cracking road, really good surface. Again early morning so you can have a good run.
There's a road in Derbyshire near Buxton called "The ditch" just off the a5270. Quite a tight road with dry stone walls both sides. 9 times out of 10 there's practically no on on it, some nice crests that you could easily take air from and a couple of nice straights that you could see three figure speedo readings on lol
That's all I can think of for now

The road that goes Welshpool-Newtown-Aberystwyth. Mid Wales.
Get it wrong and it's off the side of a mountain. Get it right and it's simply perfect.
