Mines never off the road. Don't understand why people wrap these cars up in cotton wool. LOL. I thought they were made to be driven!!!!

 

New cars maybe, not a 16 year old car.

Im sure mine, that doesn't go out in the rain or driven through winter in all the crappy grit will last longer rust wise than one thats driven all year round.

 

Mine has a couple of very nice 13 tog duvets under the car cover, with a heater for those especially chilly of days.

I think im just jealous really because mine has to be on the road all year round as have no where i can keep it undercover:p But i make sure it does get regular washes and waxings to keep corrosion at bay ;)

..I had always presumed to garage her over the winter..but I would just miss her too much.. so it'll be out with the waxoyl, keep her washed and avoid the days when the roads are like a farm track around here. I can still use her on the good days then..for the sake of 'the now' £190!

 

I can't face doing the distances in my van that struggle to top 65 on a slight incline in a head wind.. i just can't lol

 

 

Good luck with all your winter mods guys :)

Same here, my tax runs out at the end of the month. Going to sorn it and let it live in the garage for winter. Got a few jobs to do on it to get it spot on for next year.

 

Abflug Bonnet to go on

Carbon rear diffuser

Sort a crack in the front bumper I did at JAE :(

2 new rear tyres

Sort a broken bolt on the turbo

Paint the calipers

Get some of the under bonnet stuff polished up

 

Should be looking a little bit more aggressive next year :)
