£8-90 for a car, not towing.
Still extortionate.
But I love the M6 Toll for my once a year trip to the Lakes. It is such a relief after the horrible M42.
My regular London-Lake District trips involving any part of M6 have taken on nightmarish proportions in past few years, regularly turned into over 10 hour trips because of unpredictable accidents and hold ups (well, think you CAN guaranty there WILL be both!!!!)! Tried every reasonable way possible of cutting out bits of M6 (except using the toll, but that section hasn't always been the worst!).
I've now taken to pootling (caravan in tow, so not going to be going any faster if on a motorway!) up A1 to Harrogate, then across A59/A65 as my favoured route these days, BUT last year the A59 was closed by a landslip, so as an attempt to avoid M6, I went A1-M62-A65, through rather than very much around Bradford! .... that redefined my definition of road hell, well, put it on a par with M6! Don't think I'd ever been on M62 before, and no desire to ever do it again! Bradford A roads pretty hellish, but we did keep moving!
As to M42, it's been a while, but was a car park last time, so keen to avoid in future just in case!
Quite convinced any road anywhere near Birmingham is worth avoiding!
