My XM saw snow for the first time...

Post by David Hallworth » Sat Jan 26, 2013 4:06 pm

Well after reading about the rest of the country being hit by the snow in the last week I was starting to feel left out!

However, we got 4 - 5 inches of snow yesterday and it froze last night after our road had been ploughed by the farmer up the road. I had to get my VW Caddy works van towed up the road by the Range Rover as it is worse then useless in the bad weather.

Waking up this morning there was a load of snow that had gone, it was nowhere near as thick but I still felt obliged to go and have some fun and bring out the little kid hiding inside me...

Here's my weapon of choice :lol:

400cc's of pure hooliganism!

This is also the first time in it's life my XM has ever seen snow...

Needless to say it was no more then peeking at the white fluffy stuff anyway.

That picture just goes to prove an XM really is the cat's whiskers 8-)

I must confess that picture caused me much embarrassment on the FCF. I mistook the XM for a Xantia :oops: :oops:

I'll get my coat and leave quietly....

I'll let you off Jim... You said nice things about it when you were in it :)

I got an email yesterday to say the chap that bought my green Series 1 24v is selling the car again. He's looking for £1,995 for the car as he's decided that it's not ideal for commuting to London from Kent every way. He's done 3000 miles in it since he bought it from me.

One for Will maybe. Can you imagine the fuel costs commuting like that in it....
Mind you lovely way to do it.

I love the XM pic peeking out of the garage. It looks all cosy tucked away!
