Red Toyota Celica - Lutterworth

[CocoUK]

Spotted near Lutterworth with loads of stickers on the rear including, crucially, a PistonHeads smiley!

I was in my Lotus having just started a 25 Mile lap of what is known as 'The Luttering', some rather splendid roads in these parts, great fun

Guilty my misses is running it at the moment to Leicester so I should say she was actually driving.

Well I hope she enjoyed the roads, especially if she was heading from South Kilworth towards the A14 - scary!

Across to a14 J1? Now that's a hump back bridge lol!

So what's the 'luttering' then?? Fairly new to the area so still using main routes. Need to explore more of the countryside

There are quite a lot of decent roads all over south Leicestershire, just a pity half the village pubs have closed !

THE LUTTERING

It starts off with a dual-carriageway sprinkled with a few roundabouts to warm you up, followed by long bumpy tree-lined straight to test your top-end nerve...!
Next up is a rising & dipping section reminiscent of the Nordschleife before leading you into a single-track section which runs past Stanford Hall, it's a bit squeaky bum along here!
You then have to briefly double back on yourself before hitting a high speed flowing section which leads its way to Kimcote & then on towards Lutterworth.
All finished off with another rip along the dual-carriageway.

Myself & a mate (PH: TheBaj) put this together & I've done 11 laps in my Lotus, 2 in my MX5 plus 1 lap in a Cayman & Swift Sport. And also quite a few passenger laps as well!
I'm blowing my own trumpet here - but it's a mega loop of tarmac, with quite the variation of UK roads, well worth a visit or two!

Never heard of the luttering, but as I work at bruntingthorpe I can see myself taking a very long and scenic route home when the weather improves!
