Took the Lambo down from the West Coast of Scotland down to the dealer in Edinburgh on Sunday and although dreading getting what was a very clean clear covered in salt etc the roads were generally empty and plenty fun to be had without bothering many people. Id never normally take the car out in the wet intentionally but the 4wd made a big difference compared to the CS which would have been useless in those conditions. Makes you thnk about all those cars (including mine) sleeping in garages at this time of year when you could use them, then again unless its a 911 it will show up shortly afterward. Thinking of travelling to scotland and not taking your toy, well dont rule it out!

laugh Well not entirely, yours will have actually worked in the snow. I struggled to get the car to move after this shot was taken. Not through any mechanical fault, just purely I could not get any traction!

I eventually managed to move, but only after putting the car into reverse!

Still looks pretty impressive though. Especially with the roof down!! Any problems getting the roof to work in the sub zero temperatures?

Nope, roof hasn't been a problem at all. I guess it would be difficult for it to freeze up as it folds down just infront of the engine if thats what you mean?

Was quite warm still when driving. With the windows up the heater is good enough to make it nice and toastie and warm!
