    weather is forecast to hit 17 degrees this week - reckon we will be ok with normal tyres unless the weather is due to turn?? hopefully it stays mild like this for a while longer

    They'll make a big difference on cold and icey roads too. When I had my Corolla we had loads of snow at work and everyone was queuing on the main roads when going home. I went via Loudwater Lane up that steep hill, then up The Clump and back down again with no problems at all.  They can make a massive difference compared to summer tyres.

    It's forecast for 7-16 degrees this week so I won't be fitting ours for another week at least. Are we expecting a cold or mild winter this year after the hot summer we had?

    Has anyone fitted their winter tyres yet? I haven't and looking at the forecast for the next 2 weeks it seems to be warming up again. I've never left it this long before but I seem to be fitting them later every year.

    I've never used them. do you have a seperate set of wheels with them on? what winter tyres do you use Rich?

    Well I ordered through Auto-e-bid who put me in touch with an independent car broker that just happened to be in my town who order cars directly from the manufacturer.

    Thought I'd do a timeline:

    • 30th August ordered
    • 31st August call from broker and put down £250 deposit, car ordered
    • 7th September order confirmed and paperwork received
    • 25th September called broker for update, car is shipping, expected delivery at dealer 2nd November ( not sure what route it takes from Turkey ) but it expects it sits in docks both ends
    • 25th September added Superguard paint, wheel and interior treatment to be applied by receiving dealer at a good price ;)

     

    I like the look of these cars. What colour did you order?

    It will be fine Tony, there are loads of modern cars and replicas there every year!

     

    Can't beat the real thing but it's good to think i have.... Classics on the Green is tempting but i doubt a replica or as they say in America "a recreation" to fit in... If i still had the Esprit then that's another story.
