Roads with No Cars
Anyone know of any roads were I can take the wife out to have a go of my car ? She hasn't driven in about 12 years and she is a little nervous to say the least, her driving is actually good but she said she hates other cars around. so an airfield sprung to mind but then I thought the planes would probably scare her as well 
Any suggestions would be much appreciated
Darren

Go through Tiptree, on the main road towards Colchester. Past Pods wood. You'll come to a Petrol station on the right hand side and Dals house on the left (you'll see his cars out the front) Tight left right double bend then take the next turning left. This takes u right across the old airfield. 1 mile straight with a V tight bends on either end...............(perfect for lift off over steer if your feeling that way inclined)
if ya zoom out on the map, you can see the old runways on the map

THURROCK Multi car park after about 8.30pm
Loads of space/Bends/speed bumps, got all your refreshing menovers needed
Other than that go to brands hatch one afternoon, & let her drive around the GROUNDS (not track) not many cars around midweek.
