The Snow is not helping the leaks in my 205!!! Rachel

You left it outside without a coat on?!

[rachel_kgr]

I know...not good. However, there is no interior in her at the moment whilst I am plugging all the leaks!!!!

snow poor old mi16 205, well i tried to go out and play, but i managed to get a car length off the drive and wouldnt go no further!!!!

Both my 205's have pride of place in the car port! I forgot to put antifreeze in the v6 though so its all frozen up, not that its much use in this weather :P

Where does your 205 leak from btw?

[rachel_kgr]

It leaks I think from the rear drivers side window, got 2nd hand seals coming and a big tin of sealant. Also small leak into drivers footwell (some of which was trickling forward from the rear drivers side window leak).

I have checked heater matrix, sun roof drains and door seal...not them. Could be windscreen, but too cold to check. (see photo!!!!)

That's terrible, you can't love her very much if you leave her out in the snow like that, mine's safely tucked up in the garage while the white stuff is around.

Mine too. Rallye gets a go in this weather though - nice new tyres all round, big mudflaps etc.

Mines under a carport, the garage is fully of spares!!

No choice...Parents have the garage (living at home during house move!!)

My mum is protecting her 1989 XR2.

Will give the 205 lots of love when the snow has gone, lots of new bits to have fitted!!

Umm... that'll be broken then! Engines + freezing = cracking + fubar

[rachel_kgr]

Nope, she's all good. Started first time this morning, drove 60 miles to London...no worries. She's very loyal!!
