Post by: Neill on December 20, 2004, 11:33:56: I know that you are going to hate me for this but:

Yesterday I was playing in very very deep snow. Over the bonnet mounted spare wheel in two places.

Sometimes you just know why you had to buy a V8. It overheated though while ploughing uphill through wheel high snow. Not surprising when you think how much air was passing through the packed snow at the front.

Once I had dug the snow out of the radiator it was ok

Somedays I just love owning a LR!

Post by: thermidorthelobster on December 20, 2004, 12:32:09: I was up north-west of Aberdeen over the weekend and it was -11C on Sunday morning, having snowed on Friday night. Unfortunately I had a hired Focus - could have done with a 4wd, although at least the Focus was a lot lighter than the Disco!

Saw a lot of tricked-up Landies and Suzukis heading west from Aberdeen on Sunday morning - wonder what this was?
