i'm also sorn'd for the winter. looking for a new/ reconed t9 as the winter project as the old one leaks oil all over the place and with
160+bhp will not last long.
the last bonus is due at Xmas so the new box will be a present to myself (the company changed all contracts and removed the insentive to make a
profit.. dont figure)

a muddy road!!!

Ours is now sorned for the first time in 7 years*, rust needs to be addressed over winter, there's also the obligatory engine upgrade 
I'm missing it already..
* well, first time it's been off the road without being forced off due to accident damage

Or use it all year round come rain and grit, and take it off the road every seven years or so for a tart up

mine got sorn'ed in june last year and hasn't turned a wheel sinse!
was fully intent on selling it but i'm becoming more inclined to give it a freshen up over winter and get it back on the road next spring. used
to use it all year round, delivered xmas presents in it the 1st year i had it on the road on xmas eve but i'm not quite so hardcore now 
built a car, built a home, had a family. lost the family, lost the home, still got the car.
