Went to Basildon again yesterday (once again, don't ask!). Had a clear run through the Dartford Tunnel.

Yes - when I bought my car I had to drive it home via the tunnel - great fun, especially when changing down!

Ditto - Bought my first Wedge off WLA in late 80's and returned via the Tunnel. It was raining but I stopped put the hood down then backed the traffic up to give me a run - Bl**dy AWESOME.................................................
