Yeah I think that’s just city driving as a whole tbh, I live between Gloucester and Hereford and even they have similar issues despite being much smaller than Birmingham. I’m surprised you didn’t mention the Aston Expressway though, I know it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but I find it wonderfully quirky. Also re the A38 get yourself to the Northern Ireland version at some point in the future, it’s a very different experience than the GB one (probably because it’s only half a mile long!)

Birmingham was designed in the 60s and 70s for smooth progress of traffic through the city. Sucessive labour councils with a marxist anti-car agenda have ruined it with so-called junction improvements, pedestrianisation, traffic calming etc. This created the gridlock which increased emissions and enabled the CAZ. They hope that the harder they make it, the more people will give up their cars. You will be a good littlle prole and cycle from the gulag to the mega-factory.

Yeah driving in Birmingham is rough, but unfortunately that's city driving. London is even worse. There is no escape. In the cities, everyone is for themselves and that translates to the road. Plus you get the sense that people in big cars act like they own the road, weaving in and out of traffic because they can. Incredibly dangerous and frustrating. Makes driving miserable

yeah I lived in China for 10 years. For the first 4-5 years I didn't drive there as the public transport is pretty good but when my daughter was born I realised I needed a car. If you think Birmingham drivers are bad, Chinese drivers are 50x worse! I did gradually adapt becoming much more assertive and not getting angry every time someone cut me up as it happened nearly every journey. It took me a while to adjust back to UK roads and driving style.

I’m the owner of the car in the video. It has now gone to the scrap heap in the sky. Why? Well, I had a £700 bill to get it through the MOT which I agreed to pay, and this included a fair bit of welding (surprise surprise). However, once the welder got into it it was worse than previously expected and it was apparent that the car was likely to require maybe £2k spent on it just to keep the corrosion at bay. Trouble is, the car was already tatty with 180k on the engine and the bodywork was getting pretty ropey, all in a car worth probably £3k on a good day. Other things waiting to suck up money were knackered cats, and the whole exhaust system basically. I had to make a call on it. Basically the corrosion was too much to make it worth saving the car which is a shame as I was spending a grand a year plus to keep it on the road but the car was just too far gone for the money I’d need to put into it. Corrosion really is the Achilles heel of the x308. Maybe I’ll get another one day but I’ve moved onto a Maserati Quattroporte V so that is keeling my wallet ‘busy’!
