Mines ready just in time for winter! :D

It's lasted 12 years in my hands with careful maintenance so why stop now.

Be different if I had a special variant E30 tho.

Mine only comes out on dry days! Apparantly it hasn't been driven in the rain for years. I will be using it sunny days over the winter though i'll just have to wear a hat to keep my head warm!

I managed to clear all the crap out my garage which took a whole day. So its finally ready to be tucked in after a nice clean. I will not bring it out until April although some days I will be veryyyy tempted.

Only just got mine going again. So no. It lives in the garage anyway. Will still take it out over the winter. Just not on snowy, rainy days.
