Good yet sad knowledge there Steve ;)/>


:D Aims to please! Bought a MINI of all things from Slaters Vauxhall, I was casting an eye over the 2 VXR220's that they had in the showroom & the manager started to tell me how rare & special they were, until I told him I already owned No.49...

That poor VXR in all that snow. Get an outdoor cover for it....please!,


It's the cold that causes the bubbling, not the snow thumbsup/>

Have a fun trip home! 2 pairs of socks and you'll be fine.

Trousers, and at least a tshirt also come highly recommended :lol:/>


I forgot that snow is not cold. Temps are around -1 at the moment. Why we all panicking by the way!

Snow is cold, but a cover or carcoon doesn't suddenly make the car 17oc. People have had issues with storing their car in their garage over the winter too, simply for the fact that the temp still gets down to and below freezing. It's an FRP issue remember, the paint bubbling is only a symptom.

God that pic does make the VX so small or the Jag massive. You got a good parking spot there in London. Bet that cost a lot?

Under cover? 24hours security? other supercars? (yes I said other...) :P I wander around the garage most times I'm there. Last week I saw, Maclaren Mercedes SLR 722 Coupe, Maclaren Mercedes SLR 722 Convertible, Lamborghini Aventador, 3 Mercdes SLS (!!), 911 ClubSport, 911 Sport Classic, Maclaren MP4, Alfa 8C Coupe, more Maseratis than anything though. They have become boring TBH! And last night I parked next to the XKR-S and on the otherside is a V12 Vantage under a cover. :wub: my car park :D Few weeks ago I spotted a Bugatti Veron in there too, but I think that was just visiting as never seen it before or since. There is an EB110 tucked away in the corner though ;)
