Good effort moose! I've always fancied taking a 911 Turbo to the Alps to play one winter, but doing it in a 2wd pork gets you even more respect! How does it handle on winter tyres in the snow? presumably it all happens so slowly it's just good fun?!

Not helping the naughty thoughts I have about getting out of here for a few months. Looks fantastic.

Does indeed look lovely. Is it holiday or trip to be written up?

I was going to say there must be a fair few words to be found in a trip.

Small? Clearly you haven't seen how wide a RR Sport and F-Type are, we've had three cars on there before!

Not for sale, but outside the bank on the industrial estate I work on was a CLS Shooting Brake 63 AMG-S. Or something, I'm not sure which way round all the letters and names should be.

It was silver, with tasteful alloys. It wasn't too bling, I quite liked it. I could only find one for sale on AutoTrader, so I assume it's quite rare...

Shame no heated seats which I really would want in an SEC. I suppose you could retrofit them though. As I research booking a ski weekend online, I thought I would share this image

You're in danger of being the only one on here who hasn't!





On decent winter tyres, the 911 is a pussycat. Through some of the twistier sections of my Norwegian roadtrip, I was drifting from apex to apex like Mr Blomqvist himself. Can't believe that was four years ago now. Really must plan another road trip somewhere.

I quite fancy the idea of taking the M5 to Scandiwegia on a set of winters. Which month did you go in?

F-pace is quite a bit smaller than I thought it would be.

They do look the darts though.

Don't do it with an old pair of P6000s...
