I've just got back and did a lot of looking before we went.
Any worth doing are all now TRO'd or permit only as far as I could make out.

Having said that, there are plenty of interesting tarmac'd roads.

Try going along Honister pass (and make sure you stop at the mine at the top), and this road is also a very interesting drive http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=54.5472 ... 41585&z=15

One other really good drive was Hardknott Pass http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&saf ... 68,,0,4.16

But if you don't like heights

One other really good drive was Hardknott Pass

Even more fun if you go East to West doing the uphill section in ... reverse (mechanical fuel pump failure Mk1 Escort GT worked OK on gravity )
