Title: Brrrrr
Post by: Jimbob on 04 January 2010, 07:59:43
Cold one today, lowest I've ever seen at home...

-8!

took ages to clear the car, had to resort to my pet hate of warm water

got in, drove off and door swung open, caught it no problem, but the git wouldnt latch, had to hold it shut all the way to work!
managed to shut it ok once parked, but secure enough at work anyway.

Sorry!
The phrase '' bit nippy'' has alternative conotations in our house and the explanation (and indeed the image) is not suitable for a car forum!!! ;) ;) ;)

That's useful to know. Had same problem with mine when I got in this morning, but luckily after about 10 mins with heater going whilst I scraped the windows it shut when I was ready to set off for work.
