hi im running my daughter to bargoed tomorrow from scotland then turning round and coming straight home never been across the border before hows the motorway and roads for speed cameras cheers

 

m6 ,m5, m50. thats a long *** journey my friend

 

i tried to tell her to go by bus or train but she wants dad to take her petrol will be fun

 

are you on shell v power

 

Yes dave and 351bhp 353ft/lb torque

 

Hope u got a petrol tanker on tow

 

I think it should be about £200 its 750 miles round trip

 

Take it steady, cost me £130 to do 700+ miles.

 

I will be dont fancy gettin points got 3 already

 

not many shell stations on the way down.Fill up before you leave,Charnock richard services on the M6 are shell.There is another shell garage at Monmouth on the right just before the tunnel.

 

Why would anyone want to go to Bargoed?

I take it your going M50, A449, A40, A465? Just be wary of speed camera vans when you get to God's country.

 

Daughters goin to a friends wedding and im satnavn it

 

well just back home after 750 mile round trip and £170 of fuel took 13 hours

 

that's about 28mpg. good job fella.

 

Cheers i stuck to the speed limits as i wasnt sure of the roads was pleased with the fuel sweatin abit as there isnt many shell station on the motorway

 

Fill up in Chester, then head down the M54, over to shrewsbury, down to hereford, over to Merthyr Tydfil (my parents live in Nelson which is a few miles from Bargoed)

Go cross country which is 30 minutes longer, but will save you 60 - YES SIXTY miles each way.

 

It was my first time and i just listened to the satnav cheers for the info

 

i told you where they were.......

 

I know and thanks dave need to do the trip again in a couple of weeks to bring her home again
