I currently have a map of the North which covers from north Birmingham all the way up to York and all of greater Manchester across to Grimsby. I skipped every other zoom layer and didn't use detailed zoom on most of the countryside areas. In total it's 1.1GB, so a map of all places your likely to drive to within the UK seems feasible perhaps totaling 2-3GB
