Excuse to show Loch Lomond

Nor · 11 Oct 2006 at 18:24

Picture doesn't do justice to how beautiful Loch Lomond looked today. Now, if Scotland can just get a result against Ukraine it'll cap off the perfect day

Ahhh, so it is a Mk2

Should have got it in black though

Damn you and your roads

I saw one of those in Dumfries and Galloway in august in purpley blue... what in essense are they with the side vents etc?

agw_01 · 11 Oct 2006 at 19:01

It's the ZS 180.

Awesome picture, fantastic scenery. I would love to visit Scotland some day.

You could have waited until somebody moved that old Max Power'd up Rover 400, though.

hehe. It was beautiful, the pic doesn't really do it justice. The NS60 road up to Crianlarach goes right along the side of the loch. It's well worth visiting, but you have to keep to 60 pretty much. A few speed cameras and mobile vans around. Can still have loads of fun going at legal speeds though.

Good old predictable Fox

I've never been that side of Scotland, my experience is limited to Fife, other than travelling through bits.

Some brilliant roads, I'll have the Elise trailered up next summer.

fox any time you want to come up scotland just let me know and we can get a meet going with the bmw club etc.

fantastic shot there I love driving our roads.

Ive been to Loch Lomond loads of times now.

Has a special place in my heart

Amazing scenery. Really quite staggeringly beautiful!

Nice car too - always liked the ZS 180

Predictable. I point you to a review of the ZS 180 from your favourite magazine:

I think Fox was joking... or at least I hope he was. Seeing as how he's never been in a ZS, it'd be stupid of him to comment in such a way.

[TW]Fox · 11 Oct 2006 at 22:55

I am joking. At the right price, the ZS is a fine car.

5p and a half eaten packet of chewed Fruit Pastels?

I usually go to Scottish isles once or twice a year - the road around Lock Lomand is just one of the most beautiful places in the UK (imo) and I love driving around it. Just a shame about some of the Scottish traffic police...

Sagalout · 12 Oct 2006 at 08:40

Yeah, amazing roads and scenery. Even better than the lakes. Planning a bike trip up there somtime (probably next spring now)

We go up to Scotland for xmas most years and I've noticed lat year there are loads of MG Rovers! It seemed every other car was one. Did they ship a load up there and flog them cheap or something?

Nor · 15 Oct 2006 at 01:18

Better view of the car, but the weather was really gloomy. Was peeing down.

Loch Lomond then up and around Loch Awe and through Glencoe, mmm... The stretch around Loch Awe where the whole road's basically a bridge, since there's no space anwyhere for a road, it's just mountain-cliff-loch, that's stunning. I took a group of bikers up there last month and we had to stop about every 100 metres to take photos
