How to lay up your Veyron for winter.

[dave de roxby]

I was down the pub on Saturday afternoon and this young fella is asking how he should tuck his 'hot hatch' away for the winter. Now, having had years of experience with cars, I asked him what sort of car he had and how long he wanted to 'lay it up' for. He said it was something called a 'Vay Ron' or summut. Something to do with VW's , I think.

But it doesn't really matter. Whatever the car is, the main thing is to jack it up off the ground in a shed or greenhouse or similar.

The following illustration will show you how it should be done. Plenty of bricks are needed. Hope this helps.

I thought the correct way to over winter your Vay-Ron was to fly it off somewhere nice, warm and sunny where it doesn't have to worry about nasty cold mornings and the risk that the powerlines to its air conditioned garage might be brought down by the snow.

I thought Vay-ron owners had a chap to do this sort of thing for them

Well, this chap didn't seem to be bothered about actually doing any physical work on his sports-hatch (whatever) so I recommended 'We Buy Any Car'. A quick phone call and the deal was done, and now he's on a fabulous surfing holiday - in Grimsby! It's what you know that counts.
