hi folks,just curios but have any of you driven your 200 on back roads or country roads ,if so what do you think?

....they smell of manure and other countryside crap

Best place for the IS

So much fun. Wind the window down, listen to the straight six and you get to drive the pants off the car but safely and under the speed limit.

green fields
long straight roads
national speed limits
fresh air
and.........tractors
and ........caravans

Country lanes... the car is great fun. Shame about the idiot Astra drivers who take yer mirror off tho!

when i go up to meir park in stoke i go through stone through some nice winding country lanes with a huge straight in the middle.

wicked place to drive the IS, one of the first places i 'tested' my car.

think chris shipley will know where i mean

must just be mine that handles soft

Live in suffolk, so country roads are the norm.

Not bad round the corners, so long as you don't back off when going round the corners!

Went over Corney Fell today during my trip to Cumbria. Quite impressed by how my car handled, but I came back via the A595 which seemed more suited to the car - lots of bends and a smooth surface..

i feel the 200 or 300 is more suited to main roads
