Just returned from a drive up to the Lake district and Scotland to visit family for a few days, arrived back today ! Phew, 1200 miles and great fun
A couple of pics here are from an early morning (6am) drive through the Lakes and up Hardnot pass ? It may look great but believe me, a mountain goat would have been better than the S on some parts of it, but the road does take you to some of the most remote regions of the Lakes you can get to by car.
The car didnt miss a beat all the way and if you get to Scotland just past Dundee is the A93 , brilliant road, a race track through the hills (sorry no pics of that , was enjoying driving too much to stop)
Back to the boring flat roads of England

Brings back memories of last year going over the Kirkstone Pass..........in VW Boro!Hope to do it in the S now that I've got one.
Great photos.
The actual pass is not that much fun in the S ! it really is an old sheep track or something
is good for scenary but not really what I would call a fast a driving road for the S, good fun though !
Kirkstone Pass is absolutely perfect for the S! As long as it's free of traffic, which isn't often. I have an in-car vid of me driving the pass somewhere, only held up at the start near Windemere, until the slow-coaches moved out of the way for me.
Glad you enjoyed it, Nick. Can't comment on the pics though, as I can't view them on my mobile!
