Yesterday I took my 964 C4 up to the Scottish Borders to see my cousin, taking the Friday off work. He lives near Biggar and to get there is a 2 1/2 hour run each way. I like to try and keep my car running throughout the year, but do minimise over the winter when the roads in Northumberland are salted. The odd run into Newcastle after some rainy weather has washed it away is about the best I can usually manage - good for keeping everything turning though.
Anyway, forecast was good, sun shining as I set out. Got going at about 8.20am. No more than a mile up the road and I'm sitting behind a tractor towing a salt trailer! Not what I was expecting. Soon past though and a clear road up the A68 to the border at Carter Bar (watch the cameras on the Scottish side). I was settling into the drive, full tank, and some decent tunes (had the speakers put back into the rear parcel shelf last year) and got to thinking... we often see pics of our cars from outside set in interesting places - but what about pics from inside the car? Just enough info from the inclusion of part of the dash, a quarter light, or door frame to know where we are and what's important!
Here's a few pics of my Friday day out... and needless to say the car was properly parked at the time!
Anyone else blowing the cobwebs off? Let's see where you've been!
