I live in Warwickshire and do both motorways regularly.
The M1 is marginally quicker however this is only the case if it is clear which in my experience you are unlikely to get.
In contrast the M40 is a good run usually and by far the safer bet of the 2

Are there still roadworks on the A52?

And one other thing. It can be tempting to go a46 / m69 off the M40 to get to Derby especially if stuck in traffic. Don't. There is loads of roadworks just prior to the m69. Took me an hour to get through the other day.
M40 / m42 all the way.

Anyone from Eastbourne and west of there should go via the M40.

Came up via the M1 yesterday from Shoreham in 2h 45 mins non stop
Btw. Saturday nightlife in derby isn't a patch on Nottingham.

We are about 20 minutes South of Newport Pagnell services on the coach and its quiet on the M1 so far

Face this dilemma for every home game - so buggared if I'm going to bother about it today. Fancy a slow toddle across country.

Just leaving M1 it was clear as anything just a bit wet at the moment
