The run from Scotland to Manchester, which I do on a regular basis for work, should be soooo much more enjoyable.
Can't wait til April!
Anyway welcome to the forum, there seems to be some decent guys on here with some good advice & experiences.

Hi Just
I'm doing a round trip Lake District to Isle of Wight this weekend (650 milesish) and all of the things you mentioned above really, really eat up the miles. One thing you haven't mentioned (in fact no one mentions) is the amount of space inside the car I'm 6ft 3" tall, built for comfort not for speed and Arnie absolutely SWALLOWS me up. To have so much space to stretch out on a long journey makes such a big difference (although a Mondeo isn't exactly lacking on the space front).
