I've been fortunate enough to have done what I consider the best part of the run twice, once in a Golf R and earlier this year a Z4.The first over 5 days the 2nd over 4 days. The routes were very similar starting from Durham- Fort William - Ullapool via Applecross ( great drive just a bit hairy in places), - Durness -tongue- Lairg- Bonar Bridge- Inverness- Elgin-Braemar- Blairgowrie . We followed the coastal routes as much as possible, the weather of course plays a big part it was June 2016 and we had 4 days of 75 degrees absolutely fantastic. One of the main concerns were midges but we never had any problem. There were 9 people in total in 5 Z4's so we booked accommodation before we left, this is something I would recommend as due to the 500 becoming so popular it could prove hard to find. Petrol is ok to find we just kept filling up whenever we could as each day totalled between 200- 250 miles approximately. Hope that has been of some help, enjoy the run as much as we did , and pray the weather gods are on your side.

Just purchased my first Audi, having come from a Z4. I know sorry but it was one of life's itches I had to scratch. I am pleased to say it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience,but due to a change in family circumstances I had to part with it and buy something more sensible. Having just gone past the ripe old age of 61 I thought a nice sedate run around for the family and dogs, so I took the plunge with an A6 avant Quattro 3.0 tdi s line black edition in white and wow what a fabulous car. Only had it 1 day and already mega impressed.
