Christmas morning drives

[DaveCWK]

Anyone else? I headed up the Fosse way myself.

Lovely day today, clear skies & a bit of a light frost last night so just enough grip to make things fun

Merry Christmas everyone

[budfox]

I'm going down tot the One Stop in the Aygo for more Lemsip, does that count?

[Zoobeef]

This time last yes I took the long route to my mums in the Noble. I'm about to do it again!

Would have loved to take the 7 out this morning but it's having some work done at the mo!

[Welshbeef]

I'd be in the dog house if I did this on Xmas day -- plus a diesel doesn't really give you the desire to go out for a blast.


Will be driving to the inlaws later but car full and both kids in it so will be nice and slow.



Noble fastastic .

Tempted but a bit worried about the ice.

I've hardly ever done drives for fun, but try to enjoy the ones I do to get somewhere.

Christmas was always great however, I used to take a run from the Midlands to the New Forest early on the 25th each yr. Used to love that drive.

[Geekman]

I used to do this every year, but this year I'm spending Christmas at my parents house, and my fun car is around 900 miles away. I could take their Jeep for a hoon but I don't think it would be quite the same!

[Dodsy]

I always take a pre lunch drive at Christmas. Roof down, xmas hat on its a perfect preparation for the mega eating and boozing session.

Where are you?

[shielsy]

was considering a blast out on the bike, but i'm already 1 bottle of champers in.

[billzeebub]

Heading out now for a roof down drive around the Kent coastal routes ahead of the local pub opening at midday. Always blows the cobwebs away nicely.

Merry Christmas everyone

[Inverted]

Dry roads and clear blue skies here... GT3 RS with no insurance, tax and needs new rubber... CSL with no tax oh and I'm a 3 hour drive from them. Champagne it is then.

Highlands

It's a beautiful day here and my two are in hibernation. I shalln't make this mistake next year. Oh well, on to the party!

Have a good one all.

[shibby!]

Yup, i love them.

I do it every year, empty roads and some really nice roads on the way to the parents house for the meals and a few drinks.

Its a little slidey (Scotland too) but that adds to the fun!

[itcaptainslow]

Gorgeous sunny day here, so once I've attended to my required familial duties and the roads have warmed, I'm escaping for a blat in the Elise with a mate.

Same here; was looking forward to a good blast in my 6 today as I've just got home from 9 months abroad; hard frost everywhere and the temperature is showing a -2c here - not likely to me much better out and around here.

[MondeoMan1981]

A trip from one side of Livingston to another in my 208 courtesy car.... Glasgow later.

What a day for something to go wrong waiting in the cold on the AA if there was a smash/issue with the Elise...rather not take the chance and by the time I've finished Christmas lunch sun will be setting....
