The View From The Windscreen

M6 northbound towards Tebay, have a pic of Mick (Happydays) rear en-route to Beamish

and have a wobbly one, as the camera was on my dash and I certainly wasn't looking through the viewfinder!

On the weekend I went to Chipping Steam fair, The shortest route for me is straight up through Bleasdale. This is what roads should be like at 9.00am.

You don't see many of these when you're driving down the high street...

A few shots of a drive to the town of Largs which is on the West Coat of Scotland. After my car passed her MOT having been off road for a whole year, I have been keen to clock up as many miles as possible. So, one evening last week, I went for a drive with the Missus and two youngest kids. Wheather was fairly horrible (though typical for West Scotland in June :( ).

all that turned up in about 2 hours. It's cleaned the bottom of the car nicely though! New tyres doing their job very well indeed.
 
On Friday I managed to clock up about 300 miles in JVY :D . I drove from home near Glasgow down to Dumfries & Galloway in the South West of Scotland. Ending up in Port Patrick before driving home on one of the few very nice summy evenings we have had this summer. JVY drove perfectly and I took a few snaps while driving along.

Nice photos, Steve. Normally on a Sunday afternoon, I'd be around the New Galloway area on a sunny day in the P6, but because it's off the road, I wasn't. Lovely roads around there!
I was looking through some of my photos the other day, and I found this selection of 'views from the windscreen'.

Taken a back by the sudden nice weather today, I decided to go for a spin whilst visiting the folks in Salisbury
My sister took a some covert photos including this panorama

Jim, the panorama feature gives interesting results when used inside a car.

Frazzle, I recognise but can't quite place the 3rd picture down (I assume it is the High Street in a D&G town)? Looking at the 6th pic, I trust that you raced that Police car away from the lights :LOL: . I hope you get your P6 back on the road soon. Going by your other thread, it's diff problems. Keep us updated.
 
Steve, yes, the photo on that street is Buccleugh Street in Dumfries, one day last summer.
Dave, yes, it's a Clan Crusader, and one of two which I see regularly at local shows. They use the Coventry Climax, and are rebodied Hillman Imps with other changes.
