Lands end to John o groats

[Steve Q]

As I can't see my planned European roadtrip happening thanks to the restrictions I'm looking at doing lands end to John o groats instead. Looking at going scenic roads/A roads abd intend to factor in 9-10 days to do it. Has anyone else done it? 

Here's a link to the current record!

Superb road trip you've planned there Steve.
