according to the bbc we are going to lose the gulf stream this year, so its going to be the coldest winter for ten years its possible that scotland will have minus 28 celsius

Should I be looking at getting Colway MS tyres then instead?

I bet the Sei is ace at handbrake turns in the snow!

A Cinq 899cc with 145's will go thru 90-degrees with ease in the wet...I want ice and a car park with access that I can control....

cold air = lower intake temp = more o2 in cylinders = bigger bang = more power

roll on winter

I better put a jumper on.

Bring it on. Me, the Centos and the Panda are ready for it!

i wonder if i should return the breakers for the central heating boiler..

naah, cant have my housemates putting the heating on - southern pansys don't know what cold is yet

dont forget,a bit of snow in this country brings it to a standstill.and your little cars might go missing as well
on a serious note.if there is a very cold spell,think of the needy like the elderly who need warmth and food.try to help them out.be a good samaritan and watch the roads

Tell me about that...last night my dance partner (from the SE) was complaining that it was cold up here...apparently theres 5 degrees difference between Lancaster and Brighton ...although having said that, I do notice a difference (very slight and only midwinter) between Lancaster and Manchester..

But our heating is set to come on...but doesnt, were not arsed though yet as its not cold!

our landlord came round the other day, and he sorta stopped at the lounge door looking puzzled and then said "i have shown you how to use the central heating haven't i?"

they're even scared of cold in the midlands!

My house back home only got central heating fitted last january, and thats a big ass old house - i never thought that was cold.

Had great fun around back home in the ice, even without a working h'brake the back could be persuaded to go with a gentle left foot tap

Cold air + lower intake temp + carburetor + 19 year old Uno = carburetor icing = no power

Fiats don't like the cold, and neither do I! Better start looking for a cheap flight to somewhere warm

Just point the welding torch at your fingers and they'll soon warm up
