I was driving quite carefully in Scotland, despite what Top Gear pictured that you can drive as you liked in Scotland its actually quite difficult because there are too many fixed speed camera on the road. I mean a LOT! I think from the border to Edinburgh, and from Edinburgh to the border on the east coast there's probably a speed camera averaging every 3-4 miles so I had to be very careful. Once passed the border, back into England where I know the system, I was averaging 180 kmh all the way. Reached a top speed of 250kmh on one stretch, the car was still accelerating and very smooth and not vibrating, no rattling whatsoever but I ran out of straight road so had to slow down a little bit. Man I'm gonna miss driving here.Spent a night in York and went around the town before I came back to Bristol.So in the end, in trip round trip I stopped in:Gloucester, Stoke-On-Trent, Preston, Windermere, Keswick and Penrith (Lake District), Carlisle, visited Hadrian Wall, Jedburgh, Edinburgh, York, Nottingham, and Birmingham.Driving in Edinburgh is an absolute nightmare at the moment since they are installing a new tram system, and the roads are completely changed with various one way system. My GPS was going crazy trying to lead us to the hotel. Once parked we went by foot, too much of a hassle to drive round the city.Definitely a journey to remember.I'll try writing up the reverse camera installation soon.</blockquote>
