A strictly analogue start to the day…
5.30am pushed car off drive to try and not wake family / neighbourhood.
A slice of Fruit bread for a covert breakfast
An actual map
The Cotswolds
Near empty Country roads
An Exige
2hrs all to myself
Does life get better…
What a car, and thank you for all the morning traffic that stayed at home 
Sounds glorious, going out for a drive is one of the few things which will get me out of bed that early!
Brilliant 
A sloped driveway stops me from pushing the car out and then I have to go back and shut the garage door.
Early morning runs or late summer nights are the best.
Awesome, pushing off the drive sounds familiar. I’ve got a peasant manual garage door so I tend to push mine out so that I can get the door closed before firing it up so that I can make a quick getaway 
My neighbour has a JCW Mini that has a fairly impressive cold start soundtrack so I don’t feel too guilty 
Brilliant, to my mind that’s exactly the purpose of these cars, find a flowing road free of traffic, nice and early does it 
Fantastic! Sun still shining here (2.16pm). Might try to get out later.
Early is the way. I headed out at 8am this morning in the North Lakes. By 0830 it was getting busy, so cut short my drive, but i guess it is a Bank Holiday. Can’t wait until it gets quieter, we’ve never had so many tourists up here.
Fantastic! Yellow Exige on an early morning run - looks superb,
Did get out and even enticed Mrs T into the passenger seat. Ice cream and an extended ride home through the hills when I spotted a traffic jam on the A^ south . . .
Still great you got out and worth it for an ice cream
I’m having thoughts of a very early Sunday morning trek to Wales and across the Brecon Beacons I want to go up the Black Mountain Pass. I think over 2 hrs to get there on fun B roads and then a loop back, would be 5 hours of great roads but a LONG haul. But maybe my last big hurrah now September is with us…
