In the Cavalier at present so no MID - I have the older type computer as fitted to the Senators and Carlton CDX / Diplomats.

Anyway, the temperature registered -5.5 this morning.

-4 on way to work -3.5 when I started it.

Let it clear for 10 minutes - wouldn't run over idle until the water was properly warm either.

-5.5 @ 6.15am this morning in Swindon, went to Heathrow, -2 there, but -5.5 by the time I got back to Swindon.

Washers froze on M4, melted at Heathrow, and froze again on the way back.

That was interesting trying to drive with a white (from Salt) smeary windscreen.  ::)

Just filled washer bottle up with -8C ready mixed screenwash.

Coldest I have ever had was in Sweden about half way up.  -28 C

Car (Saab 9000) sat outside youthhostel overnight.   I thought - Oh shit is it going to start in the morning..  No worries - first turn it fired up.  Unlike the German Golf parked next to me - totally hosed battery.
