A drive in the snow South of Edinburgh.
Took the D3 out for a short drive in the snow South of Edinburgh today. Plenty fresh deep snow with some minor roads completely untouched by any other vehicles.
As you can probably tell there was a couple of areas of drifing snow to be tackled, which of course the car dealt with superbly.

There is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes.
