I was in British Columbia this weekend to do some snowboarding and took a picture of this Mini. Will the owner come forward or be too ashamed. Look there is even icicles!! They should be ticketed for abandonment!

Nothing that a wash, wax, and a blast down a good B road won't cure

MINIs all around the world will be looking like that now!

This week has been OK!

Last week we had a couple of corkers with 35*C+ temps. Then New Years day when we had high 40*C's (I saw 46.5 - some further south saw 48+)

So its a hot one

ahh, thats ok then I gotta say... the snow looks fantastic. I've never seen falling snow, and only seen snow on the ground once when I was a young kid (dont really remember it) down Snowy Mountains way.

Guess I should hide mine from your view. With all the snow we had here in Germany the last few weeks, there were days that mine looked like that as well.

Unfortunetly, here in Germany, I do not have a garage. So parking in the elements it is... This is why I ordered a car cover.
