Even if you are just going to the shops for a quick trip, it is possible that your entire journey will leave you with sore knees and a stiff back.
But imagine spending hours every day for three weeks behind the wheel of the world’s smallest car as you drove the length of Britain.
Alex Orchin, 31, did just that, setting off in the Peel P50 from John O’Groats in Scotland on November 13 bound for Land’s End.
After covering over 1,400 mile at speeds of approximately 23 mph, he reached his destination on Saturday.
The 5ft 11in Mr Orchin from Wivelsfield in East Sussex had to squeeze into his car, with his knees jammed on either side.

Due to the tight space, Mr Orchin (5ft 11in) had to drive the car with his knees jammed on either side.
After seeing Top Gear’s 2007 P50, he bought the car.
‘I can’t believe that little car has managed it,’ he said. ‘What an achievement.’
He raised more than £8,000 for Children in Need through his journey.
Peel Engineering Company from the Isle of Man created the P50 in 1962 and 1965.
Production resumed in 2011 and a new one costs around £14,000.
