That is a fair bit of coverage, but i bet you are not alone with a G sat in that. I was expecting the worst when i read the thread title, but at least you aint hit a curb or the likes :)

That's insane! :o Mine's tucked up in the garage, glad to have it out of this weather. The Passat's turned grey with the salt, but there's just no point cleaning it at this time of year.

at least i dont run it in the winter months. only bought a house a year ago, so have had to do things to it before i can get a garage up or she would be inside. I have my tractor (mk4 polo diesel) for winter or her lupo.
has anyone else got loads of snow?

I been working on mine today. ;D

Dam the lack of money these days. Can only afford to rent a shitty garage that has no power and only just about fits a polo in it. Did I mention its 10 miles away from my house

do you actually get grip in this weather?
hopefully the white stuff fucks off soon so i can get my charger off to give it a service. am not as big of a fan nowadays laying under cars in crap weather. but sometimes it still needs to be done.
