It does not work for me, just says timed out and if I enter say Inverness into one of the boxes and hit show nothing happens.
I can see your routes by clicking the links however. The Inverness to Athens route does seem a bit bizarre. Not what I would have expected. Crossing the Pennines on the A66 is strange, continuing on the M6 is the more normal route. Also crossing from the M2 to M20 to get to Dover is strange, for a car the M2-A2 directly to Dover is quicker. Most routing software does seem to prefer the tunnel over the ferry. http://open.mapquest.co.uk, which also uses OSM mapping provides more normal routing, certainly for the UK stage. Although it does seem to struggle with routing in South Eastern Europe. Google takes you through Italy and across the ferry to Greece, am not sure of the relative merits of this route, over travelling overland but it does start to ring alarm bells of real border crossings and the need for additional insurance.
