I have other things to do with my time.
[QUOTE 4844882, member: 259"]Like spending it in the gym.[/QUOTE]
I want an overall fitness as I get older, cycling does very little for my upper body. The bikes still get well used, swim, ride and gym works well for me. There are certainly many cold, wet and windy days where I enjoy a gym workout over a bike ride.

Yip, I was living in Dublin when they brought the MOT equivalent in, the NCT and I can remember folk saying that. That was only in the early 0'ties

Who said anything about speed ? The OP states "enjoy the pleasure of driving a very expensive car". Nothing about breaking speed limits.

I enjoy the pleasure of driving a cheap car. I'm going just as fast, probably cornering quicker because I've been trained to drive properly, and have immense smug satisfaction that I'm a hundred grand richer for it

Yup that's why I like the Volvo. 8 years old engine just about run in . Love the twisty roads in N Wales. Fun watching the plums in Clios dabbing brakes all time when I can use gears and anticipation of the Road .

Seriously. Do you really think Ricky Gervais, Charlie Watts and Robby Williams need a swish car so we will know they are successful?

I do that on the winding A82 south from Tyndrum and along the twisty side of Loch Lomond; my best so far is 41.5 miles without braking. Very satisfying and great for the fuel economy too.

I use the brakes gratuitously when driving in Essex (specifically, on the A12) because it's the only way to get the dozy twat following me to notice that my car is slowing down.Oh aye, idiots who comfort brake really annoy me.
