Hi Gents -

Looking for some input, I have some American friends coming across to the UK, landing in Manchester on a Monday morning in the next couple of weeks. They are renting a 911S from Avis for 4 days. They land at 8am so we have 3 full days and the fourth day they need to drop the car off at Manchester airport and then get a train to London for a dinner engagement.

What would the collective suggest? We could do a lot of the roads in North Wales and try and do Isle of Man too, Or Scottish Highlands ?

Has anyone tried to do Isle of man and North Wales in 3 days or is that asking too much?

Its around 350 miles just to get upto the highlands so 2 days would be spent on motorways.

I am leaning towards just doing North Wales or is the Isle of Man more appealing ?

Any help appreciated. I am in a r8 v10 manual so will be interesting to see the comparison with the 911s.

Thanks

Ok thanks chaps. Nice little you tube vid there - looks like a fund trip.

Will do North Wales and the Yorkshire Dales. Any accommodation or route recommendations ?

I know I can probably find this through search on here so will do that as well. But if anyone has any pointers it would be appreciated.

Best wishes,

Don

It also looks like routes such as the eco triangle are now policed with speed cameras. So non obvious less travelled route suggestions would be great too.
