Upon leaving the tunnel I find myself in Rmad's car watching the Seth mobile work its way through the London streets  He's a charming man is 'our Seth' ;D  Nearly 2hrs of driving and it's still deserted. 28 days later anyone?  I could photograph in tunnels all day long! Soundtrack was nice too....  We stop at Russell Square for a quick break, toilet stop and re-group. Si spots an open gate. A photo opportunity. He backs in and sweet talks the security guard while I fire off a few shots....  While at Russell Square, Si does a drive-by so I can practice ready for when we get to Regents Park  Seth does the same (I'd love to have photographed everyone doing this but it was time to head off to the park)  We get to the park to find it closed! Bummer!! We stop and have a chat anyway...  Adam was rather enjoying his stint in the Westfield.  Seriously cool car!  Heading off for the next part of the route  Two fingers up at convention  |

Thanks for the comments guys ;D Here are the last few pics from the drive: We find ourselves on the street where they were filming Top Gear. After being moved on so that the cars were not in view of the camera, we stop in a side street to observe the filming. The Aston, Porsche and Maserati were the four door Super-saloons being driven.  There were cameramen all down the street with this cherry picker at the end. Sadly, the cars were occupied with 'drivers' rather than messrs May, Hammond & Clarkson  Within seconds a grumpy policeman moves us all on our way...so we all loop around the entrance to St James' Palace and head off again  More tunnels   I then jump into the Westfield to be given a direct adrenalin injection. Check out the expressions....it says it all!!  Dan's car looks superb on the move  The Colonel's just looks plain imposing!!  7.30am - after 3hrs of amazing roads, sights and sounds we arrive at out breakfast destination.  Breakfast Special's all round. Om nom nom...  Great food, great company and some great experiences. Retro Rides at its very, very finest.  I'll leave you with this....gotta love the Kev ;D  |

Fantastic photos mate, didn't expect anything else! Those 'daylight' night shots look even better on a big screen, amazing.

Awesome photos everyone. Gutted I missed this. I'd just got back off holiday AND I don't live far so my only excuse was being l33t reading the forums.
Is it just me or is KFW starting to look like a very overhaired Fonzee? I say we all chip in and get him a quiff, a comb and a leather jacket. Ehhhhh ;D

I'm really kicking myself now for not checking back on here and seeing my PM, it looks like you had an amazing time, seeing cool sights in your cool cars.
Hopefully if there is a next time, i'll be there too!

Great, great photo's, I've forgotten half of it 'cos there's so much to take in that early in the morning !
Well done eveyone who took part and of course big thanks to Seth, I really enjoyed it and recommend a Dawn Drive(not just in London) to everyone.

As always, really great pic's from every one. This has been an experience that will never be forgotten. I drive around London 3 times a week for work and HATE it! But this time was the most relaxed Sunday drive anyone could imagine, quite roads, cool cars and a great bunch of friends.

Superb pictures. Seth's great idea given very thorough justice! Shame I couldn't make the 2CV do or I'd've met you all at the Ace!

And thanks everyone for putting up with me failing to start all the time. Fixed that, but the axle fell off on the way home...
