Has anyone in our happy band done the Land's End to John O'Groats trip in a Landy before?
The other half is not too keen lol :rolleyes: as 840 miles for the trip plus we have got to get to the start and back home makes it over 1700 miles probably in 10 days :eek:

Yep the mrs :). In the S1 but it’s 1500 miles 3 days on the endurance rally & your not using the motorways.
Me I’ve done it twice in the lorry. ;)

They are doing this again in the S1 December this year.
Very boring journey up the motorway until you get above Carlisle.

I have just shown your post to the other half, her face when she saw your Mrs did it in an S1 and in 3 days!!!
She will still need convincing our D90 will make it without falling apart :rolleyes:
 
Pity your motor won’t fit in my lorry I would have dropped you off in December at John o groats. ;) You could then have drove back.
Biggest problem is speed. If you can sit over 56 you won’t get affected by lorries.
Do a few days on long hours/miles then you can admire the views up north slowly with lots of stops.

There are plenty of LZR up north to help.

Now try to convince the mrs.
 
A woman's intuition!:)

We lost the clutch on a 360 mile trip shortly after getting the Landy, since then we have made it back on every trip :)

We can sit at 60 and if I sort the steering we could go faster o_O it just gets a little hairy over 60 lol
She has not driven it and we have had it a year, once I can convince her to drive too, I think it will be on :cool:

There int nuffink there un when yer get to the next one there int nuffink there anorl.

Save yer self the pain. Split it inter 2 separate trips so yer still get ter see nuffink twice, but separated. That way it reduces the amount of travel time un yer can do more ollyday stuff.

Hire a freelander anorl. Gerrer auto gearbox foot hills.
