i'd say 1hr40 normally, but you got that sodding 50mph average section around the m25

Fully unrestricted?
Driven by someone who will drive it like they stole it?

I reckon it could be done around the 1:15 mark

I'd say two hours. If he averages 60 he'll be doing well.

Google Maps says 2hr10, but that always is out by fair bit. Large section at 50mph average cams, from M40 to M1 is going to slow you down  :(

firstly he weighs more than the goods he carries, may slow him down,he wont go fast as the company had trackers fitted so cant get back too quick because hes on overtime now.

Surely its only that distance if you via the centre of London? I would have said closer to 130 going around the north direction - so my guess is 1h 50
