Re: West London to West Wales - A40 option on the SV
I have done it both ways, Ickenham to Aberaeron to Ickenham, did A40 all the way except around Cheltenham/Gloucester, I cut a bit out by using the A417 and A436 to cut out Cheltenham.
What I would say, considering the way you're going, use the M40 to junction 8 and then use the A40 from there on out. The first part of the A40 nearer London is not much better than a back road, so, save yourself some hassle and time, get to jct 8 and then enjoy the ride.
Not a bad road and has some lovely views of Western England and Wales as you get towards Gloucester and beyond.
Need any more help dude feel free to PM me
