Just opened the blinds and we have a light dusting of snow here! Not enough to have an effect on the roads, but enough to need brushing off the car.

I expect this means we will soon have postings of experiences of the S2000 in snow from areas of the country with more than the dusting we've had!

Just read this on the BBC News page,

"With snow showers expected in the east of England and Scotland over the weekend, Coral is now offering odds of 6/5 for snow on 25 December"

In Stafford it's cold, sunny and crisp, a perfect winters day.

Handbrakes on, it's in 1st gear, and there are blocks behind front and rear wheels. There's more snow due to go on top of the ~inch or so that's on it already. I'm not driving anywhere for a few days

I had some Ice this morning, but I think the snow is on its way down south. Im staying in Brighton over the next week so there is a cold sea breeze blowing salty air over the car. Even if I clean it, the salt and grit is back in a day
