Just been out for an evening spin around the countryside, as this will be my first winter with my S, I would like to keep it running over the next few months.
Lets just say that I have been back inside the house for a while, and I am just starting to thaw out...and it's only October! What's it going to be like in January! I think I will need to invest in some gloves and a hat....and of course you still have to have the roof down, it wouldn't be right otherwise

Check that the hot-air vents by your feet haven't spun around and blocked the airflow.

Other than that - as you say - jacket, silly hat, gloves...

Edited to add: ...and wait until you have to chip ice off the inside of the windscreen.

I was given a sheepskin flying jacket two christmases ago and its perfect.
Get one with a high collar to keep your ears warm, add thermal socks and gloves and you won't feel the cold at all.
Enjoy the freshair all year round

cheers Bill

Flying jacket sounds a good idea. The only hat I have is a multi-coloured jesters hat I wear skiing, so I don't think that will look cool!
