Those roads around the borders are just deserted and lovely 
Enjoy

Cruise Control is a must up there. In many parts of the borders there seem to be more cameras than people, or other cars
The other thing that puzzles me is the 50mph limit on the M77, clean and clear heading down to Kilmarnock, whats that about, have there been lots of accidents or something?

Ahh my hometown Kilmarnock 
Thats stretch of road has just been upgraded and I think some parts of it are still under construction, I think it will be given higher speed limits once its all complete.
I hope so, its a great stretch of road now.
P.s. it used to be one of those roads with 4 lanes and no central reservation!! exciting stuff it was!

Hi All,
Just back from a trip to S W scotland ourselves. As you say watch out for those cameras. Very little crime there so suppose they use the motorists to keep the figures up !
Only kiding. Great place and fantastic people. Scorp drove faultlessly, thats tempting fate, and the fuel consumption was brilliant on the open roads.
Safe journeys to those on your travels.
Regards, Chris
