Drove up from Bournemouth via M4, M5, M6, Chester to Bangor, then Bangor to Preston on Thursday. All in all, 12 hours driving including a 2 hour stop at my daughter's place in Bangor. All thanks to the M5 being closed.
Drove back from Preston to Bournemouth in 5 hours on Friday afternoon.
Not another MX6 in sight the whole journey...
The good news is that the fuel consumption was great. Filled up after 260 miles and had only used 38 litres. The bad news is that it used a 1/2 pint of oil on the way up.
