Furthest was about 100 miles I would happily go 200+ miles if it was a gaurenteed sale but I wouldn't travel more than a few miles to view one. Had a few where sellers just lie their asses off about the condition.

My flatmate lives in Surrey and she drives to birmingham(ish) and back like every 2 weeks!

driving back wasnt that bad just trains are so slow took double the time to get there than it did to get home

Cars up north get an easier life because they don't spend their days sitting in traffic jams.

Furthest I've travelled is about 40 miles. Need innoculations to go past the Watford gap, so wouldn't go that far south

You got it all wrong...

the reason why cars are cheaper up north is because they have already been stolen and cloned about 10 times!
