Used the Midget through last winter, decided against it this year so its garaged while the merc takes the strain and I change its front wings. It never ends does it.

I use my B roadster once in a while, but normally wait until the weather is really cold, bright and sunny, then drop the roof!
Some of the best looks I've had were driving with the roof down whilst it was snowing.

My wife uses her MGB as a winter car!!! The only problems we have with it are that the person that put the dash back in didn't seal the air intake very well (if at all) so the heater fan doesn't blow much air in & the thing leaks water badly. Some mornings there's more ice on the inside of the windows than on the outside Apart from that it's served her well as a winter hack.

For the third year running, I'm using mine in the winter because my winter car is off the road! A '66 MG has been more reliable than a car half it's age. Probably because there's less to go wrong!
