I live up that way in a town called West Kilbride, my Clio is extra fast cause it is parked so near Hunterston nuclear power station when it sleeps at night, you shuld see the things that baby can so when it hits 888...unfortunately I'll be on holidays in Germany week after Xmas!!

I've just been on the west coast for a week, I can thoroughly recommend the A828 between Connel (just north of Oban) and Ballachulish (just south of Fort William) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A828_road. It's got bends, straights, dips and dives ... everything ... it's great in both directions too (i.e. going north, or south). Just watch out for stray sheep in the road ... oh and the odd golden eagle too!

Are you mad? East coast...nicer?

Here's my trip: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=448750

I wouldn't be coming up in winter though. It'll be cold, wet and if there is any snow a lot of the good roads will be impassable...save it for spring/summer.

What?! Other than some in Aberdeen and Grampian area the raods in the West are much better! And thats from an east coaster!
