Hey Guys,
I was in London last week and we drove on the ring of london,what we have in ETS2 too. It is the M25, in the area where the bridge/tunnel is it´s also called A282. I would love to see it in ETS2, because it is an awesome place! :D
In Northbound direction you have a tunnel with 2 lanes and in Southbound direction you have a 4 lanes bridge ;)
Here are some pictures of it,i think the most british guys will know it :P

Well i don't know why SCS didn't do the bridge, i'm amazed that the bridge to Dover is made :)
The M25 and London are pretty rubbish ;) - Heathrow missed , Dartford Crossing missed , Thames missed in London , the intersections will all other highways are very bad , many things not so nice
That area should it look different but don't worry the guys from ProMods will give us something else :)
Even some areas in DLC G.E. are different from the standard map when the game was released

As I mentioned in another post, the UK map was basically taken straight from UKTS, and adapted for ETS. And UKTS is quite a few years old now :cry: . I'm sure if SCS had had to build the UK from scratch for ETS2, London for example would of been a lot more detailed. But as you say, we can trust ProMods to deliver the goods (excuse the pun) :D

Well yes...its the UKTS map...that´s why i think that the Promods guys should rework GB too :D
I was there 3 times now (in reallife),and i want to go there more often,just because i like the country,etc
Especially places like this are awesome and should be integrated into the game to have a more realistic
feeling on the british roads :)

Fun fact: The tolls on the Dartford Crossing were only meant to stay there until the bridge was payed for. The bridge was payed for about 4 or 5 years ago. They are removing the toll booths, to replace them with an online charging system. (so that they can get more in fines!)

Speaking of toll booths, as far as I am aware, FLD is working on some custom toll prefabs.
