M-R-P, the ka is a super 1600 tarmac rally car, minus the 1600 bit at the moment! its for sale if you want it haha? My pal in the shed next door builds and looks after a few different rally cars, the KA owners Evo6 is kept and serviced there so he has ended up taking on the KA job
Martyn, i work just outside portlethen. That shed is just off the netherly road.

AWESOME :D
It was -2 along the valley this morning, lovely hard frost on the road...saw my first icy roads related car in the hedge.
It was so far in I couldn't tell what it was other than a white hatchback, POLITE and AMBWULANS in attendance :(
Stay Frosty you lot.

They were the only ones I could see with 'V' rating for a decent price. I had something similar on a Ford Focus, not bad at all. You should get little diddy 16 inch wheels like mine :) save a bit of cash.
I fancy a bit of snowboarding so going to try to get up to Scotland next month or January. I need to buy or hire a roof rack too, probably from Halfrauds. Coolant changed, winter sticky boots on, snowboards on the roof......is the plan!
