Your car in the Snow...

[Kneel]

All cars not just clio's, but as I love snow and we only very rarely get it in Manchester I had to snap my car in the snow I hope there are more people like me... Post your snowy car pics in here.

Is that today?

 

[Darren85]

12 Hours later!

This was from February this year, about 20cm of snow in less then 12 hours! Was a nightmare, car was stranded for a few days, there is a road that runs behind the parked cars (you can see in the first pic) and at either end a ramp which leads to the main road, totally impossible to get up!

More snow expected tonight mind, upto 20cm again.. Oh dear!

 

[Kneel]

yup, I'm a big kid with the snow so I had to snap it lol.

EDIT: ^ I'd love it if we got that kinda snow tbh.

 

[Darren85]

Oh yeah the snow is great, but a total nightmare esp when you have to get to work somehow! This was the snow that brought the entire of London and SE to a grind.. It didn't clear for over a week! Was bad times, although I didn't own my 172 back then, I don't think that would cope to well haha, I struggled in a Pug 307 Diesel lol

[Aluco]

[Kneel]

My friends in Bradford say its coming down pretty heavy at the minute, I are jealous

 

[Darren85]

Closest I been to any snow activities was in Milton Keynes Xscape and I failed epically! Haha

Edit: Oh and in Feb as in my pics when I stacked it down the ramp head first..

That's a point... I might go check out Queensbury with topgeartom when he finishes work :rasp: It's mega high up there !

I learned to snowboard at castleford Xscape, practice makes perfect

Learned in 8 hours and did my first black run is Austria 3 months later

 

[Darren85]

Some people just have it, others (me) just don't have no hope! haha

 

[Aluco]

Skateboarding since age 11 probably helped :rasp:

I live close to Queensbury, not much further down tbh and it is coming down quite heavy now, we just shuffled the cars around so they in the right order for tomorrow and it is f**king freezing too. All snow has frozen to ice.

Would take a pic of the clio covered in snow but too cold tbh.

First job tomorrow is at the top of Bingley near Eldwick, should make for an interesting drive, unless i decide its not worth the risk.

 

[Aluco]

Fancy taking me & Tom out for a drive if I can get him to man up ? :rasp:

Its all about balance, which tbh I have none of haha.. I struggle to walk on level ground some times lol :rasp:

Need me to man up first

I've just got out of having to go into Bradford tonight too so its a nice warm night in.

 

[RDP197]

None here in Brentwood yet - expected heavy over night, so could be a Friday of working at home, we shall see!

EDIT: Has started here now and settling. Driveway is starting to get a dusting, snowing heavy for now.

 

[subarufreak]

forgot this morning to take a picture :S

it looked so sorry for itself...

anyway, maybe more snow this night so tomorrow

biggest hassle of it all is that my street is saltless so it's like an iceroad...
and with a 172 with no wintertires... :clown::rasp:

o well

 

[rctempire]

Mine last year

Miss it yet boy?

Big puff !

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Snowing big and fluffy bits here near Dartford..

Darren .. the 172 will be fine. It's not even lowered !

Mine last year was lower (splitter) and had fresh paradas on it .. i still got to work (and home again after it got worse) without the slightest of hitches.

Clio = bestest snow car everar. The end.

PS Get on MSN !

Big Jessie !

From Urban Dictionary, the definition of jessie

A wonderful person who brings sunshine into people's lives. Being a Jessie is a beautiful thing and a rare quality.

:rasp:

 

[Aluco]

Have another look

 

[jenic]

Lol, I think you and tom should sill go and take some pics in the snow.

 

[Curtis!]

Just snowed in Warrington!

For some reason my entire drivers side mirror was totally clogged with snow:S Hopefully it will snow overnight and I can get a pic in the morning.

 

[jayxx83]

One from me back in Feb. Its predicted to snow for the next 3 days in london. Cannot wait if its true and hope it settles. Dont remember a white Chrimbo since I was a young young boy!

 

[BREMBO]

Miss it yet boy?
