Great pics!

Scotland does have great scenery and some nice roads, but it's a bloody long way from here. Stayed at Inverness a few years ago. Had 2 overnight stops going and one coming back. Whilst we had a good time we decided that the Lake District is just as good and less than half the distance.

Looks lovely. It pi$$ed it down here today, not all day but for a decent amount of the daylight. Hoping for good weather to get a top down drive. It's been too long :(

Beautiful photos - those first ones look as though they could have been taken in the summer.

Lovely photos of Largs. don't get the Lake District is just as good - I love the lakes it's a fantastic area and the Beers is better. But in terms of driving it's not on the same planet as Scotland . the lakes even in the north are fairly crowded.

And despite the location I'm English so trust me I would like it if it was the other way around.

Yes Farlie & Portencross :thumbsup: Had a wee run up to Gourock on Thursday. Weather was fantastic don't realise what we have locally. Pity it's only visible a few days a year lol.

Thanks for kind words. Think car does look OK with the 18 square set up,fitted spacer to the rears & looks better imo. The winter tyres don't like being driven hard though a bit scary at times. :D
