Just out of intrest,

How many of us just go out for a drive for fun?

I do it often, it's great way to chill after work, cheaper than a night on the beer and a great chance to play with the camera.

What about you guys?

(BTW it's a multi vote poll - tick all that apply)

Used to years ago, but although I still love driving I don't find it so much of a pleasure these days with the traffic congestion and the price of fuel.
The 50 miles a day getting to and from work is enough. Occassionally go out for a drive in the country at weekends to find a nice pub for a meal.

Still go out for drives when I'm at my house in Devon though.

Just wish I had the time. Used to love driving and would think nothing of a run from the South Coast up to Cumbria or further....now I have to fight to get a couple of hours to myself which wouldn't get me to the M4 and back

[Elite Pete]

Since I got the MX5, if there's a bit of sun, the roof's off and im on my way to Wales

[PaulW]

Yes

Quite regular for me to go to Lancaster Services on the M6 for just a Hot Chocolate!  Or around North Wales for shits & giggles!

Bike too when its nice, weekend jaunt to Prestatyn purely for fish & chips by the sea!

Do quite a lot of driving "for fun" in the Westfield. Go on a tour once or twice a year with these guys: http://www.se7ens.net/. Great bunch of guys maniacs. Time is generally spent finding the best roads during the day and in the evening we are either fixing broken cars in Hotel car parks or getting bladdered in Hotel bars.

Quite often head down to the South Coast on a nice day. Loads of nice roads between me and there if you avoid the main roads.

Much the same as Pete & Bob -- used to love it -- but the hassle these days takes the joy out of it!  When the buggy is up and running it will be a different matter !!!!

Mostly weekend nights with miggy when the traffic is a bit normal..

For daily usage clit is the work horse for this mad traffic and drivers..

As long as there is no hurry and no compulsion to be somewhere at a given time. Last year we headed into North Yorkshire, ended up at the Tan Hill Inn, the real ale was so good we ended up staying and had to sleep in the car.

[Richie London]

if im bored i'll drive anywhere or cruise. never worried about how much fuel i burn up. id get a micra or a corsa otherwise. i used to drive around the country meeting people off the chat rooms, women of course   but then i got stalked real bad and packed it all in, still go out randomly driving though, foot to the floor when possible  

[Del Boy]

Sometimes but very rarely these days.
