As well as all the speed restrictions on the signage, it's hard to drive fast in most of the UK because of all the traffic. Going from Leicester to my place in Wales in the average day takes me ages, but going at 4 o'clock in the morning I can complete the trip in just over two hours, and that's without getting speeding tickets or being put on driving awareness courses. I used to wonder about giving my TD5 a remap and perhaps a bigger intercooler and turbo, but it's not really worth it, because in standard tune it can exceed all the speed limits you're likely to encounter in the UK.

I quite like the 'resto mod' genre, and had an acquaintance once who had taken the original 803 cc A Series out of his Austin A30 and substituted a 1275 unit with twin carburetors. That was quite fun and could really shift when you pressed the loud pedal. But for most traffic conditions in Britain it hardly seems worth it.

Absolutely, re traffic.

This is one of the reasons we love where we live in France, get away from a town and the roads are pretty much empty. Of course this isn't true of the whole country but it is true of large parts of it. Same population, twice the surface area, pretty obvious really.
 
Had an appointment at the hoss piddle this morning (after a ten month wait) to have my left lug examined due to hearing loss. They are going to give me a hearing aid - in about 8 weeks time. Should be able to hear in stereo again, and know where sounds are coming from.
