we're seeing VX's getting written off every couple of days due (mainly) to the conditions.
Not due to the drivers?

Yep I've had a VX220 and Elise S2 Sports Racer and Elise S1 driven in all weathers.

It may be perhaps that yes it is the drivers, but the fact that VX220's, Elise, Exige etc, catch the front corner on a curb in the slippy conditions and that can be a write off as a front clam replacement is near 3k all in, do that on a 6k VX220...Do that in a M3 or whatever and you probably wouldn't catch the bumper at all..

I've driven the Exige all year round, thought about winter tyres this year but don't think it'll get that much use to bother.

Think I saw leigh at Clifton green in the 911, if it was you you might have noticed a Yaris stopped quite a distance from the red light, well after you passed it went through and hit a Honda Jazz coming out of water lane.
Ooops! Was it sat in the left hand lane, think I recall that being a little strange.

I have a black one. I've seen a blue ST TDCi estate around, but not a 220.

Ah yes. Didn't see the rear so couldn't tell if it was petrol or not

I remember there was an SJK taxi ST TDCi blue hatch, which I haven't seen for a while. Always thought it looked great, and a bit of a curve ball choice for a taxi.

I've seen you in Sowerby Bridge as well I think but it was a few weeks ago

I drive a silver celica with black wheels, spoiler and bonnet scoop and will be spending quite a bit of time over there in the coming months

I think it was, I felt for the Jazz driver, he had nowhere to go and just sat honking as the Yaris got closer.

A very menacing looking black Dodge Challenger SRT going a little too quickly through the 50 zone on the M1 heading towards Wakey yesterday.
