It takes a major incident to make me late for anything as I hate unpunctual people. I allow time for the journey itself, and add a bit on. The longer the journey, the more time I add on.
It's logistically possible to get from my old house east London to Kendal in Cumbria (270 miles) without coming out of 5th gear after just 3 miles.
The fastest I ever did it in was 4 hours and 8 minutes, and that was in a Mini-Metro.
A Rover Turbo, VW Passat and a Jaguar weren't as fast, simply because of traffic, which some people never allow for.
