Furthest you have travelled in a car

Often drive Brussels between Aalborg overnight which is 700 miles. My record is 7.5 hours door-to-door :o

Furthest I've done with 2 drivers in one go was Eastern Norway to Bremen, which was around 1,000 miles.

Furthest I've travelled is up to Trondheim, up and across to Gällivare in the Artic Circle, across to Rovaniemi, then Helsinki, Turku, Stockholm and back down again.
Can't remember the total miles we did and we had some ferries, but it was probably around 3-4,000 miles in 3 weeks.
 
Not hugely far really.

Calgary to Estevan when I was working in Canada. About 570 miles. But I was always doing 400+ mile drives then. Usually only stopping once to fill up the truck.
But also did Dundee to Paris once too. Which is around 750 miles.
 
East Midlands to Klaipeda Lithuania. 1500 miles. Could have been quicker if I went through Kaliningrad but didn't fancy risking that one! Did a 1200 mile non stop drive from north eastern Poland to our house on return. That took 20 hours which wasn't bad. All together I did around 4000 miles in two weeks.

Also did Washington to Florida back in 05 but that was with my uncle.

My biggest surprise was how poor some of the Autobahn was compared to our motorways. Especially as I was doing 130mph+ on them.

I used to do Corby to Peterhead twice a week but that was in a Truck.
In the Uk I did Peterborough to North Berwick and Peterborough to the Lizard. Dunno which is Further !

In Australia I did Forrestfield (WA) to the middle of nowhere on the Nullabor Plain and Parked up for the night but that was in a VW Combi (1982)

Driving away from Corby is always a bonus at least.
 
Jeez!! You lot must have bladders like footballs. :D

In my much younger days & before motorways we did Walsall to Sennon Cove in Cornwall which then was 308 mile. Wifo & I used to stop every couple of hours to have a stretch & a Jimmy & to give the car a rest lol.
 
I've done 300 miles in a day on the bike before, absolutely knackered by the time I got home.
 
Stoke to Wembley, then to Thame and then up to Porthmadog in north Wales on Thursday was fairly long, I was in my truck mind you and have most likely gone further on previous occasions:p
 
Nothing particularly substantial but mine are:

UK - Midlands to Ullapool, Scotland (500ish miles)
Europe - Midlands to Paris (420ish miles)

Both in an M135i :)
 
Furthest I have travelled by car would be Sunningdale to Rome.

Furthest I have driven is probably Birmingham to Dundee. That was with 4 people in a fiat 500 :D
 
Myself - South Essex To Aberdeen & back about 10 years ago. Had a Diesel back then & it was about the time Scotland had a Diesel Fuel shortage. Filled up just about every jerry can I could lay my hands on to take with me on the Journey. That was fun.
 
As a passenger growing up we did Norwich to Disney land Paris.
My self iv driven Norwich to Lossiemouth for work, a day to travel up, a day of work then a day to travel back.
 
In one day? I've done Aberdeen to London. As a round trip, I've done Aberdeen to Saint Nazaire to Macon and back via Strasbourg.
 
My records have always been in the states. 8 1/2 hours in one go from the northern peninsula of Michigan to the south of the state through the snow. That was fun.

Memphis to Orlando and back via New Orleans in about 8 or so days was good going too with 3 of those in Disney.
