As my 1.9IDI Berlingo gets noisy and starts to guzzle diesel above 3k rpm I tend to cruise at 65ish which is about 2750rpm. Cannot remember when I was last badly delayed in the Brum stretch. No speed gain on toll road and it's longer too.

South Staffs, J11 on, is more of a problem IME. Use the Brum section if going to N Wales and M1/A50 for Stoke and points north.
