Where, we haven't got any up here yet - at least not in the last week! All the mountains have been white for a while, which is unusual even for this time of year - normally a week and it's melted and gone. It was trying to snow earlier on here, but it was only the odd flake in the rain.
Just remember VA - you are camoflaged in the snow now - No breaking it! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

I've just been to lock the front door and looked outside and everything has a light dusting, nothing that will bring Scotland to a grinding halt though! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

The RRS with winter tyres fitted is nigh on unstoppable in bad weather, couple of months ago we had 10 inches of snow on a B road not far from the house. The RRS went through it with zero fuss, unlike the 8 or so cars that got stranded going up the hill and had to be towed over to safety by a local builder in his Disco.

Just driven home from Nottingham and the snow is interesting on side roads so say the least.
About 2" on top of ice....temp currently -3.
Sh Censored t myself when I gave it a little too much gass and the back attempted to overtake the front from a standing start... no real indication and then whoosh, almost said hello to a lamp post which was not ideal.

Has a play with the snow setting and it works well but feels like I a towing a house....lol

Saying that the car is fine if you respect the throttle, even without the special settings applied.

Lets see what tomorrow brings, its snowing lighty at the moment here in north Notts.

The snow has just started here in Belgium, so far just a light dusting. If it gets thicker it will be worth going out for a play Mr. Green

ps. no hills around here... nearest one from here is in Germany lol Sons of dogs come hither and get flesh

About 1cm here and all the roads are clear, airports open (but you cannot fly to London), ferries running, buses running....................... so I'm off to the local tyre fitter with my set of Pirelli Scorpion Snow and Ice tyres on Salmon Fishers old 19" wheels that I bought from him 15 months ago to get them fitted to the car. We have a forecast for up to 20cms for tomorrow though so I might just get some proper use of my winter tyres in the next 48 hours. It was -5 here last night so maybe too cold for more snow today, we have a lovely clear sunny morning at the moment. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Still only a dusting here, and the weather station (... outside teperature probe for the central heating) says -0.6c
When we had the extreme lows of a few weeks ago where it got down to -18c and we had a fair bit of snow, the MT/Rs were excellent but you really had to watch out for the other cars as they did not have the same level of grip Sons of dogs come hither and get flesh
