The Antrim Coast Road

Events Great Driving Roads

There’s a really great driving road right here on our UK doorstep, the Antrim Coast Road. Here’s a quote from the Discover Northern Ireland website about it;

“This 120-mile driving route (with nine scenic loops) running along the coast between Northern Ireland’s two main cities was voted 5th in the world’s top scenic views (Jacobs Creek, 2006) and when you drive it, you’ll see why.”

I drive this road as often as I can cos it’s spectacular! Not only for the scenery but for the actual roads themselves. The smoothness of them plus the curves and turns along with the straights make this road a relatively short but completely enjoyable drive. If you ever find a chance then get the ferry, take the drive and believe me, your MX5 will thank you more than your better half will! 

Thank me later…! lol

Came over especially for this one, and it was worth it. Do use the Torroad when there and stay overnight in Derry (londonderry). We are going to do this one in 2016 with the Dutch Owners Club. Keep you posted.
