I like the Welsh, and I like cardiff and aberystwyth just don't like my town full of scum who like to attack students, plus there is nothing to do in wales!! It's all national parks and anywhere good is miles away, then when u plan it, it then decided to piss down!!
Lol rant over

Lol yeah the A470 to aber can be interesting, did it when we had the really bad snow last year in my rover, and that struggled, got a pic somewhere and it looks like a rally stage

As my mate calls it, "the vein of wales" it goes up to merthyr and connects cardiff to aber, it's the only sensible route to take from me to get there. I take the A40 when travelling up across to Ponty but not for to long?
It''s a good stretch of road about two hours to drive and its very twist going through mountains and national parks looks stunning in the summer or the snow

Car looks very clean.
Another set of wheels would look ace. Not sure what kind tho. And a black grille and smoked front lights would further the look.
