Or are you going to carry on in true British fashion and not bother. :D
 
i might put the fuse back in the heated seats, i took that out when the fuse in the lighter popped

im getting a new set of kumho ku31s, theyre pretty good in the snow.

no need to check anti freeze, my cars pwn so all the fluid is still in there from last year.

about it really
 
Hi, maybe if the snow arrives as early as next month I'll have to get out of my shorts and into jeans a bit earlier :D Buts that's all the prep I will be doing...

Same old same old, just the usual winter accessories such as a better torch, more cleaning stuff. Never bothered with winter tyres, haven't felt the need. Done just fine over the past few years without them.

May get some on my long-term test car but otherwise, business as usual!
 
What are T1R's like in the snow?

My old civic was amazing in the snow and it was 1 of only a dozen or so in my town what managed to get through it last year, when we got hit we 3-4ft of snow. Amazingly fun and i got bonus for still going to work :)

O, how i miss that car lol.
 
You checked the 4 wheel drive still work on your xc90 :p

Im going for snow tyres, just bought a folding shovel and de icer and auto socks and a couple of ice scrapers. Yup I expect the worst from the type R winter its rubbish.

Crap.

EDIT: I'll elaborate. Arrow/delta treaded tyres are generally useless in the snow, regardless of brand or even compound. Both my F1 GSD3s and my T1Rs were utterly pathetic in the snow.

i totally agree with the gsd3s... i felt i was going to die in the S4 when i put the eagles on. before then it was on dodgy nankang crap and pwnd in the snow.

as for v-groove, i had sportrac3s on my golf last winter and that car was epic in the snow
