hanley Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 If it's just the day event count me in as Newcastle aint too far away I think and will try and get some club lupo stickers sorted out by then. I will double check and get back to you. Also got a mate with a VR6 Corrado who might tag along aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris260 Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Think it's still about a 4hour drive to perth from newcastle , my flatmates were from perth when i lived in newcastle and used to do it pretty regular. Just to warn you!! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbank Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 I do York to Edinburgh at least 6 times a year. I ignore the A1 cos it's full of trucks and pensioner's with caravans. Can be good late at night though! I generally do the A19 and A697 through Coldstream - done it in just over 3 hrs - 3 points on my licence arrived shortly afterwards!

chris260 Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 They always went the coldstream way too, a fun route by all accounts! I heard they like the speed cameras north of the border! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Dont worry about speed cameras going up to perth - theres only a couple (a sneaky one in a 50mph area of Edinburgh `ring-road` - its on a dip & after a flyover). Its `Marykirk-Aberdeen` that has cameras every few miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
