A lot of driving today
« on: 07 June 2009, 20:00:14 »
Been down to Sidmouth in Devon and back today. Total of 380+ miles but lovely comfortable trip. Took the cdx, did really well on fuel at a steady 70mph both ways. Not many cars I have previously driven are so comfy on such long journeys.
What is the most miles any of your migs have done in one day?

About 250mi but it took about 29,000,000 days because the M5 got rather broken and Brizzol was slighly congested. 
- Thank goodness for ECC.

About 6-700mi continental - because it is so much easier there,  happend to be in a comfy Renualt at the time.  Indeed, had to force ourselves to stop as we made a day on the return leg!
