Damn snow!

[Toms306]

Hmm, could've REALLY done without it today..... :evil:

About 3" in the road between tyre tracks, no grit on our road.........and coming home last night there wasn't even any grit on the main B road!

Must admit though, the golf was good in it last night, I left the ASR on and it only cut in trying to get on my drive (bumping over a high kerb onto an uphill sloping drive in snow FTL lol). It got me straight up though, where as the 306 just span in that same situation last year.

Heres a few snowy pics.....you can add yours too....

















Thanks to the snow I'll be missing out on work today if I can't get out so I'll be losing £30.....guess I better not drive anywhere at all next week then.

Hmm....think my uncle's gonna have fun today............he's gotta drive from Ipswich to Ogmore......in a RWD beemer!

[kingy]

Had just under 2 inches here i reckon.

The cabby has been amazing even though it was ploughing the snow with its front bumper in places, climbed a massive snowy hill in high wycombe even though it was probably 1 in 3.

Had a great laugh coming back on the motorway at 3 different peolpe in expensive nearly new 4x4s whod all managed to crash into the central reservation and/or the banking up the side and were sitting on the hard shoulder missing wheels and bodywork.

Only issue i had was snow getting stuck inside of my wheels and making them feel massively out of ballance.

My banded steels would be well heavy if the dish filled up with a load of snow!

[Toms306]

Sooo....

Heated mirrors packed up this morning...great.... (didn't notice until I tried parking in town lol )





But then got carried away taking snowy pics with different settings on the camera phone lol.......I think the snow is about the only thing that makes the golf look a bit interesting haha!











Snow mpg wasn't as bad as I expected...considering I set off when it was -4 lol....and left it idling for about 10 minutes on the drive! :o
