400 Miles on the clock - wish it was run in!
My new 04 Sti UK on the A701 Moffat to Edinburgh road. Note to myself - come back to this road as soon as car has 1000 mile service........

Recommend that road for a bit of fun - fast, flowing a bit bumpy in places but built for scoobs. Downside is that Johnny Lawman knows it and sometimes sits up farm tracks with a stopwatch counting you from white dot to white dot. I know coz I got an SP 30 a few years back when I had an Alfa 155 Tspark. Got bollocked for taking him 10 minutes to catch me - if only he'd known I was only sight seeing that day.....

Got off the A1 at Piercebridge and travelled up the A68 all the way.
Piercebridge to scottish border = 0 speed cameras = stunning scooby driving.
scottish border to dalkeith = 12 wtf?
Something wrong with our Scottish roadways pal

Sadly, while I have all the scenery I could want around Seattle, the roads are somewhat lacking - it's either multi-lane freeway (motorway) or wide country road with no real corners, over-cautious speed limits and over-zealous cops. *sigh*
And even when I come home to England to visit, I'll be in a poxy rental car not my WRX...
Although there's always that rally school I was lookin' at. Bonkers.

Black is best mate
(Like Nathan... I'm not biased!!)
Watch out for those stone chips, and I've invested in Black all round Scott Lowe flaps. Protect the car and look the dogs!
Happy motoring
