North East 250

[testdrive]

A short film of the coastal section of the North East 250 route I am sharing. Quite an enjoyable drive and very picturesque, especially if you like Porsche.

Hope you enjoy.

Feedback for you. Your video didn't show much of the actual road.

No this one didn't, which isn't typical for the channel but this was only a short clip to showcase that area, hopefully it helped persuade you to want to take a trip up there, it's an area we often overlook.

Lol, that's like selling ice to an eskimo

Alternatively, there is 20 mins of the NC500 roads and not much scenery within the channel page if you guys prefer.

Did the NC500 many a time before it became cool. lol. Wanted to see what the NE250 included. Some pretty boring busy roads tbh a few decent ones. There are certainly better combinations of local roads for a really intersting route.

Undoubtedly the best section is around the lecht abut I'm keen to do the Pennan to Crathie via Tomintoul section in one go. Probably driven most of the roads already but never in one go. Be a great day out with some stops along the way.

What else do you recommend?

Something like that. Once the bridge is open at gairnshiel lodge you would use that road and should be about 200 miles. Then there are routes further west but I supposed you would call that the Middle of Scotland run

Thanks for pulling that together, yes I know all of those roads very well, maybe done them so many times that I'm not appreciating them.
The Drivers Collective run last year did something similar:
