I suspect you will find that it take a lot shorter time to drive
across such small area.  Looking at
<URL:http://freemap.vm.bytemark.co.uk/osm/index.php?js=0&e=1112859&n=1176133>,
it do not seem to be very big.

I collected GPS points for Lødingen in an hour, and draw the map for
it in a few hours more, so I suspect a week for Isle of White might be
too much. :)
