Suggestions for an Italian road trip

Mrs Wilsnunn and I are looking at going on an approx 1 week road trip in Italy at the end of January next year (partly taking advantage of the fact that I will be over 25 and car hire won't be extortionate any more!).

We hope to find a good deal during the upcoming Black Friday Sale (I got some amazingly cheap weekend breaks this year as a result of it last year), but are wondering if anybody had any suggested routes (NB looking for suggested routes, not exact flights). The BA website lists a few, but none seem properly road trip worthy to me.

Details for us:

Fly from LHR (we would drive there and park) or LCY and LGW (by train/tube/DLR).
Hoping for Sat-Sun (9 nights) or a subset (this would affect flights if from LCY?)
Hoping to stay in 3-4 or so different areas (2 or so nights per place)

I am in need of a few more avoids this year to keep silver, so may make one way CE, the other way will either be ET or CE depending on what there is available (prices).
