Dunno about this global warming thing..we've had the wettest winter in Ireland since 1840 and this winter is shaping up to be the coldest on record.
I'm driving a Passat diesel into work everyday in the wet/cold. No fun but it does the business at 70mpg AND you can get 4 into it with luggage.
Took the B out for a spin last week and spun it off..yes indeed. Too fast round a bend with ice and spilt diesel oil, luckily the verge was wide and no trees so no damage. Took a while though to clean the leather seats.
Anybody got any tips for driving on slippery roads..My B handles like a tesco trolley on ice...and the roof leaks in the wet.
Still life...
