I guess I should consider myself lucky for having these roads on my doorstep. Here is a couple of photos taken from my journey tonight. Got a bit carried away and only just made it home with an almost empty tank.

Too cold ?
I don't see any snow falling or ice on the ground.
Turn on the heater, maybe the seat heaters if you have them ..
Windows up if you need that.
Ski Jacket, toque and some gloves if you think those might help.
I think you missed an excellent opportunity to drive topless... :driving:

If it's not raining roof down. And yes I do know that rain can arrive in 5 minutes without much warning in Aberdeenshire :P

Your right. Only snow was on the hills! Car temp gauge was reading 2.5 degrees. Only had a t-shirt on which is my excuse for no roof...haha

Should be warm enough with the heaters on full blast. we had an amazing two weeks of sun and then all of a sudden it decided to go from tropical weather to winter overnight with lots of snow. Soo unpredictable but I recon you should manage to get many roofless miles! 8)

Great to get out in the Zed on some clear roads. :thumbsup:

Love your wheels - what are they? :thumbsup:

:driving: :thumbsup:

Thank you! I bought them as temporary wheels whilst I get the z4 alloys refurbished (should get them back on Tuesday hopefully). They are M3 alloys painted in gloss black. I wasn't expecting to like them as much as I do so might end up keeping them and putting winters on them! :thumbsup:

Great photos mate and I agree with the comments above on the wheels, suit the sterling grey perfectly. :thumbsup:

I'll be up in the Highlands from 11th May for a week if any other members fancy meeting up for a drive?
