Here's my 6 on its winter wheels and tires.
Thought I'd put it on here and see what other people's cars are like this winter.

Please post up pic's. It's always nice to see. Smile

Yep, it's always on Facebook. I'm a photowhore...
Mines nearly standard Luke. A few subtle alterations that's all.
It's just lucky to have had a few owners that really looked after it.

Mine is filthy as it is being used as a daily driver and goes through crappy, muddy roadworks and birds poop on it.
I hope to give it a good clean over christmas and hopefully it will stop being a DD soon!

Fek me thats in great nick.

My plans are to start it sometime. I started it today for first time in a month. No issues. Fired into life. Rattly Aux belt and all. I was going to bring it to work but Big Truck with it's heated seats is much nicer place when we're done to 0.5*C!! Maybe if it gets high single figures i'll take it on a run.

As for washing and cleaning.....that's definitely not my forte. Fair play to those who can keep on top of their cars at this time of year!

She is in pretty good fettle, especially as it's got 148000 miles on it. Here's some of my favorite pics of it.

    Good lad. If there's one thing I hate it these cars not being used. And it sounds like your one is well used. Smile
