Iced XM!!
I could not resist taking and posting a couple of photos and in Norfolk we had about 25cm of snow in the last 12 hours! With regards, Matthew T.

Re: Iced XM!!
Looks like the weight of all that snow has collapsed the springs...

Re: Iced XM!!
I had been meaning to post these further photos and the appearance reminded me of the XM launch book wind tunnel illustration! Regards, Matthew T.

Re: Iced XM!!
No wonder such a good drag figure was achieved. That snow cover really emphasises the smooth line from bonnet to screen.

Re: Iced XM!!
^ That depends on whether it was facing the wind, or the wind was coming from the rear...
It might be better going backwards than forwards...like the Austin Allegro.
