Your longest drive in ONE day?

[86JR]

That's over 13 hours driving. Do you actually do anything when you get to your destinations?

I go up at 1am, have a nap, conduct business, visit grandfather in rhyl, then drive back normally around 11pm.
It is all motorways so it is not a 60mph road especialy when there is no one on the road between Birmingham and Exeter.

I once set out form my flat in North London in my r33 GTS-T Skyline to buy a paper from the shop round the corner.


ended up driving up to North Wales, then down the a470 to Cardiff,over to Bristol and back down the m4.

Took 9 hours I think and cost a fortune in petrol.

Was a very good drive!

By the time I was on the M4 I had to crawl along at 50 as the exhaust noise was so deafening. The car had some crazy twin pipe exhaust on it. Soon replaced by a nice quieter HKS jobby

230 from Vegas to the Grand Canyon. Was an amazing drive! Big open roads, automatic, cruise control.

I'm not normally one for automated vehicles, but they really work in the US!
