Latest issue of Autocar has a a three car run from Cheddar Gorge England to Cardigan Bay Wales over the Severn bridge. They used their long term test M3W, an Ariel Nomad Supercharged & Caterham Seven 310R borrowed from their manufacturers.
The Ariel had a heated screen but no side panels. The Caterham had a screen & side screens but ran with roof off. The weather was cold & damp & for the M3W it was a 14 hour drive.
The drivers did not swap seats & arrived dirty, damp & happy after some "proper motoring".
"All three cars exact a basic comfort toll in the cold- but return it tenfold as a transactional experience of the road and landscape entirely at odds with modern day steamrollering."
