Anyone else have snow last night?

Seriously icy this morning and no traction control made for an interesting drive.

slowing for speed bumps and the ABS coming on... then gingerly pulling away from them and arse end all over the place!

I read that there was a chance of snow/ice yesterday but still no gritting???

Off to pick up the CSL tomorrow night so will have a car with traction for days like this :-D

Cheers fella, cant wait! never been this excited about a car.

Yes the snow was an odd one, hopefully not much more ice over the coming days so I can get out for a decent drive.

Got a full weekend of driving and visiting family... :D London,Kent,Hampshire and Surrey so plan to pickup a few favourite roads.

Cheers

Mark,

When I bought the GT2 I picked it up in York, on the way to a road trip with pals in Scotland and we had rain, snow, sleet, hail and brilliant sunshine in the space of 4 days!

Baptism of fire me thinks...

What amazing roads and scenery!

some pics from the trip, a good selection of motors too.

Lots of bargains and if you are thinking of new i have a contact! makes you drive slower which is novel to me! but nice and relaxing, but TDV8 has loads of grunt and remap one day soon!
