Exited Watford Gap similarly after a breakdown recovery on the M1 c1987. Out onto a local road and the A5 to the then Freeways of Weedon depot - now long gone. Having confirmed my Mini's CHG was irretrievably beggared they then relayed us home to Watford.
These days such exits tend to be subject to a traffic restriction with cameras and fines for unauthorised use such as 'rat running' for commuters.
