Just got back from a camping trip to the west coast of Scotland, isle of Skye and finished at Applecross. 1250 miles in 3 days.
Here's a few pics of the car

that's "the road to applecross". north west scotland. the further you go northwest, the more remote it gets and the scenery is fantastic!
did you enjoy the roads Paul?

Top gear went to Scotland a few years back when they drove an Impreza and Evo...took them along Loch Long near Arrochar and the surrounding area. I suppose it's where the hills of the West of Scotland start...
