Or would A3 be better?

I could drop back onto the A303 then.

I hate the M3, a really annoying, dull motorway, and the only interesting bit (around Winchester) is always too busy to enjoy.

A good friend lives in Southampton, and the M40/A404/M4/A34 is a much nicer way to get there, although the A34 is currently being SPECced for roadworks, so that's no good any more.

For real fun, the A3/A272 is quite enjoyable.

Or, if you're heading further west, the A30/303 is fun til stonhenge, or take the "old A30" direct to Salisbury...

I suspect Mr Graves starting another "M3" thread has no relation to roads.

However, I humour him with a reply, if you're coming off the M25 and heading south, there are lots of avergae speed roadworks going on, which on a Friday will be rubbish.

A3M would be my choice, although its achilles heel is Hindhead. Rumour has it they will be sorting this on the next incarnation however.

I was getting ready to merge it

Thanks for the replies! As an M3 owner, I think people ought to get out of the fast lane quicker. But then I own all the roads.

I much prefer the run out over the Hog's Back, personally.
