it was a joke by Bush haha  in ref to boats... :laugh:

As for the door locks, nothing changed, but if you use the VW de icer is sorts it out, i used it once to de ice the locks then they never iced up again, it has some sort of oil in the de icer that must last quite a while once you have used it

Thank you everyone for the replies. Hum a mk3 GTI for the winter is looking interesting.  :smiley:


Same as any other car, if driven properly  :rolleyes:
Im old enough to remember driving in proper winter conditions(we have them up north :evil: ) unlike alot of people i do actually know how to drive in a bad winter (as its a skill i learnt over many years of bad winters) but not every car is equal imo there is big differences from experience even when used with the correct tyres.
