Sweet. And that is a lovely colour - better than it comes across in the piccy. So much nicer than any shade of grey (i.e. the other 95% of BMs sold this month :roll: ) :D

mine too but I've not found front wheel drive any better, many years ago my celica 1600st was great in the snow despite being rwd, I think it was more to do with skinny tyres rather that the wide low profile sports rubber nowadays..... and I know people all go on about front wheel drive but before rally cars went to 4wd many of the top rally cars managed with rwd :)

Living where I live even the snowplough gave up, so I'm better with my trail bike :)
