Heroic effort

Was it anyone on here I spotted in an orange Exige this morning coming over the motorway bridge into Chandlers Ford today?

Seemed a brave choice of car - that low front bumper would make a great snow plough I suppose!

Maybe Cyberface? I know he uses his car year-round (with winter tyres)... although have no idea where he lives so might be completely wrong

Wondered that when I saw the "Exige won't start" thread but think he's more SE based.

Not me - I did drive down to Somerset this weekend and had to make it out of 17 inches of snow, which was entertaining (numberplate ripped off twice) but the place 'Chandlers Ford' doesn't ring a bell so it can't have been me.

These little cars are perfect in snow, you just need the right tyres. The engine weight is in the right place and the car is light enough not to get the 'momentum slide' problem down hills like my old 911 did (scary as feck)...
