I am of the opinion that most worries about keeping cars over the winter never really materialise into much if anything. It does depend upon how dry your garage is of course. Mine is under a cover on the driveway, so no garage and hence why the discs have gone orange. Quote
Euan Hoosearmy Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 Haven't been in the garage for a few days... went in last night and found this. Believe it to be revenge for the leopard print steering wheel cover I put in her Z4...... 5 Quote

eggontoast Posted October 13, 2023 Posted October 13, 2023 Yes, that's the conclusion I'd come to. Thanks all for the discussion on this with a new owner, here and the other thread in the tech area. It is much appreciated. 1 Quote

Popular Post Paul Baker - Bristol Bath and Cotswold AO Posted October 15, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 15, 2023 Managed a decent run up to Tetbury this afternoon. Nice blue skies but mighty chilly! I've driven past this mystery gate a few times thinking I should stop for a photo next to it. 10 Quote

Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Called into The Motorist on my way home this afternoon (I needed the loo) The Rolls Royce Enthusiasts club were having a meeting, parked just behind them, but the Westfield looked tiny next to a Jaguar and some "Yank Tank". 7 1 Quote
Popular Post GaryH Posted October 15, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 15, 2023 Hi First time out for a while, I had my second knee replacement in August. Pretty much settled now and getting more mobile. Clee Hill beckoned today, cold air and dry roads. What's not to like? Gary (The radar dome is part of the NATS network) 11 Quote

Worth a walk around in fact, some lovely parts to it plus it's own herd of deer. You can enter through the village itself. The house looks fantastic and there is a nice carp lake in front of it too. The horses run through parts of the lake during the Badminton Horse Trials. 2 Quote
