Afternoon. Just to let you know just completed a 1700 mile drive this weekend to find the best road in the UK. From the Southen parts of England to the tops of Scotland and the Lake District. Just to say the C4 did amazingly well, with all the challenges that was thrown at it! Cant wait for another long trip!

Hope the B3157 between Bridport and Weymouth was included in your tour? The scenery is stunning

Its reputed to be the South Wests leg of the Manx TT circuit...

Didn't keep an eye on my MPG, the whole trip cost around £450 I spent about £200 on fuel on the 4 days. My favourite road was the A82 from Fort William to Glasgow!! it was worth the time and money just to spend the 2 hours going down that road. The B3157 wasn't included in the trip, but i have been on that road as I live near there.
