As the title suggests, I am looking to actually get out on the road in my car for a drive at least a few more times until the weather really packs up. I live in the south west line from London, so driving anywhere in surrey would be good.

any ideas or perhaps anyone else want to do the same?

There's a really nice road in Pirbright, not too far from Guildford.

The Pirbright bends are great early morning before the great unwashed start crawling through and there are some great roads around Ranmore common, Shere and Peaslake.
My personal favourite are the roads around Woldingham (South of Croydon but inside the M25) such as Gangers Hill although these are really tight single track lanes so not to everyone's taste and to safely do a decent run its best to wait until later in the year as all the foliage limits your view down the road

I've been using the A281 to go and visit a prospect recently - nice road when quiet!

Weather depending, there is a few of us meeting in Oxted (just off J6 on the M25) at 7am on Sunday the 29th of this month.
Will be going down the twistys, over the Forest, then along various bits of the A road to Eastbourne to a cafe for brekky. Then on to Beachy Head for pics before heading home either the same, or a different route depending on what people want.

Feel free to join smile

But that aside, the A25 from Guildford to Reigate is good.

Bell Hill, Petersfield for sure. I go down there from Staines from time to time, it has to be early though. Start at the southern end, i.e. the bottom of the hill.

I'm from Sunbury, would be good to try those roads the next time you go.

I've always liked the roads around Chobham.
