Great Ocean Road - worth driving through?

[Graham]

Hey there

I'll be in Victoria on Sunday and will probably be driving back to WA on Tuesday and was wondering if it's worth taking the extra long detour and going down great ocean road for the sights and twisties?

Any other decent things to see in Melbourne while I'm there?

Cheers,
Graham

Yeah Worth it Graham, More Pretty Scenery, Less Trucks, but more Caravans

I have been on it bloody awesome and the views are magnificent ..... however i was driving a rental elantra so the car sucked arse tyre squeals at 60 which is pretty scary when ure next to sheer drop and lil barrier.....

Graham, drive is well worth it! Done it twice down there all way to apollo bay. Especially good if car has right set up. Very fun indeed!

[Graham]

cool cheers guys, I plan on doing it in a bmw z4, so a pretty grippy car with a lil bit of power

I hear it's a popular cop spot and there's been a few media hoonlaws there so I'll have to be careful!

I'll post up pics of the apostles if i see them

I've heard a lot of good stuff about driving there, except for numerous speed limit changes while you're at it. Just beware of the signs if you want to save your wallet.

drove down there yesterday, such a giood rd, we have nothing that good in WA..

the Z4 hugs the rd like crazy, even in the wet it wouldnt think of oversteering unless i ripped the wheel around on purpose.. amazing car

Bit late now Graham - but next time you're down hear mate give the Black Spur a run. Absolutely brilliant road! Glad you enjoyed the great ocean rd
