It' 98 miles from my place to my uni flat in Newcastle, the fastest I've done it in is 1 hour 18 mins. Could be done in an hour, but averaging 98mph wouldn't be easy.

I wanna get a 635 next Daz, sweet cars. Are the M6's (or are they M635's) really expensive?

Silly Me! When I said two hours, I was thinking of Sheffield for some reason.
Hour and 18's pretty quick Dave. When I was still commuting to my job in Devon, I once did Tiverton to home (353mls) in 4hr24 - 80mph average. :burn: I wouldn't even attempt to do it again. It was in my old teeth-rattler RS.
Come to think of it, the Touring won't go that far at that sort of speed without needing a fuel stop (but it might after tomorrow :banana:).
