Not really a fan of Top Gear, came home from work early one day last week and it was on dave but did notice what appeared to be some very nice roads in Wales, not the usual valley bottom but over the top, its the episode where a Hurcules drops a Jag off on a beach, they then Richard around on the sand comparing the jag to an Australian Vauxhall and some American thing, anyway the roads had ARAF written on them so must be Wales, anybody got a clue where ?

I was aware it was Pendine Sands, having driven up and down it several times, but was more interested in the roads driven by the cars in question, mainly so i could ride them one Sunday morning

wouldnt bother now tbh.... have a look at it now on youtube m8 - it's like a bleedin marketplace from top to bottom with street traders everywhere and it's absolutely packed with tourists.
no way you can get clear run on that road anymore.
i think if you paid a lot of £ to go there you'd be very disappointed.
