Grabbed the chance of a dry drive to work and took the Indy today. Left at 7am in the semi-dawn with all the tin tops rosted solid
2 pairs of socks, jeans, 3 top layers, ski jacket, neck tube, crash helmet and gloves. Only part that got slightly cold was my right thigh where the
wind whips around into the cockpit.
The engine felt really responsive in the cold damp air, really willing and a lot smoother than in the summer
Looking forward to a similar drive home tonight
"Well done that man"
Its still -3 with me this morning, so I dont think I'll try that in case some bits fall off (me not the car)
As you say its a cracking day apart from the cold but Ill bet the roads would be a bit dodgy.
good for you!

Just been out for a lunchtime blast in a fleece and no helemt or gloves...
...now that's refreshing
its good to keep them taxed for these fresh, dry winter days....took mine out on Sunday...
-2oC here this morning - I was still tempted....
it was so cold in the wilds of essex today that i got frostbite,one of my team was eaten by polar bears and we had to set fire to the van to keep warm till the tea arrived
Indy'd it to work again today
Bloody marvellous driving in the glorious sunshine with 100's of tin top drivers looking totally gobsmacked
We had an hour out today, 3 assorted 7's and an Exige.
45 minutes before we needed to defrost with a hot tea, blat only spoilt by some B road drivers doing 35 in a 60
Must invest in new gloves
