I took our track car for a short drive this afternoon to check the new steering wheel was straight. Had forgotten my gloves so made sure I pointed the heater vents in the right direction.

Hands = warm as toast.

Rest of me = bloody freezing!

Did I notice? Of course not, too busy enjoying the hoon.

I wear gloves in the winter too. And a scarf, sometimes.

You don't think I'm going to put the roof up, do you? Crazy talk.

gloves in winter even if the roof is up as the aluminium gear knob is bloody cold for about an hour or so frown
but if roof down, couple of jumpers, coat hat scarf and gloves smile
Although considering buying an after-market seat warmer to pop in the seats for about £50 smile
(is that a bit gay?)

None of your windbreak rubbish neither.

Believe me, it's the old mod can left. Never had A/C, ABS or PAS, hood, carpets, stereo, sunvisors and armrests gone, only heater remaining. Oh and wheels, seats and stuff.

It's ok.

I'm only jealous.

Had to drive mine to cadwell the other week at 5am with no roof or heaters.

Certainly wakes one up in the morning.

I feel a manly fail coming on here but anyway....

I thought you werent supposed to put the roof down if it was cold/wet. My roof is both of these so i dont like to put it down. Are all of yours garaged or am i being over cautious?
