Well Chaps
Took the better half to the shops today and decided to take the C2. Although cold (-1C) the sun was shining and all was well until the return journey home. By that time we were experiencing sleet and snow and temp had dropped to -3ish. What a nightmare, car was almost unmanageable on the ungritted twisty A/B roads. Did not enjoy the drive home at 30mph max.
Maybe I'm a wimp but I've never driven a rear-engined car in the snow before (at least, not since a 1972 Skoda that went to the breakers in 1980). Don't think I'll be doing it again soon.
Its a shame really because we were going to visit Cornbury House tomorrow.
Anybody else feel the same way?
Regards
