My PS3s are hanging in there, no major issues so far although the traction control light seems to be quite active  :laugh:
DSG is superb as usual for me, but then I have five winters of experience so know how to use it properly

I think I am going for the winter tyres next week, if this keeps up, just checking local prices at the moment.

Mike i just put the ps3's on mine and your right about the traction it does throw it out a bit but still great tyres IMO :wink:

-6.5C when I got home from choir practice at six this evening.  God only knows what it is now.  Forecast night minimum for Livingston is -9C, so what it'll be up in the hills here I don't want to know.

Just went out to the garage to shut off and drain the tap.  It only seems like a couple of months since I had it fixed after it split during a -20C night in January.

Herr GolfTi: Beyond my imagination I am sure. :grin:

Start composing an 'Ode to the GTi'. You can get some pointers from Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' from Symphony No 9. :cool:
