Hi all,
Got back from the UK yesterday and did over 3000 miles with a Citreon C4 Cactus 5 speed manual car on all types of roads and there is no way I would take my truck on many of those roads as it would not fit and you would be driving with part of your truck in the oncoming lane. Yes there are buses that do some of the narrow 2 lane roads and when they met up with another bus to truck each is squeezing into the bushes and crawling past each other.
There would be no issues with traveling on the M routes and many of the A routes, but heading into some of the smaller towns that only have single lane routes and turn outs it would be extremely tight as on some of the roads 2 cars passing would barely fit.
Steve, I know you have a smaller vehicle, but you must be a great driver.
I enjoy driving my camper here and find it relaxing, but driving in the UK was not relaxing and in many areas there were no views as you are surrounded by hedges or stone walls.
