Having just read the heart breaking thread about Mr Wolfs accident it made me think...

What's the lowest temp we've braved the mustang in?

I'll start (obviously) with a -4 10 mile commute a week or so ago. Did laugh as I left the car idleing at 6am to defrost the windows. Sorry neighbours.

No real drama, wheels span up on leaving the driveway but careful throttle got me to work safe.

I'm sure someone's mentioned a snowy drive up north?

Tack.

Lol, ask in the Canadian subforum. Bet a few of them will have braved some seriously low temperatures. When it's routinely -15C and below, suddenly heated steering wheels make sense.... Thankfully when I lived in Calgary, our cars had heated seats!

This past January it was 20F (-7C) and I had a 40 mile drive home after some indoor kart racing for my sons birthday. On summer tires it was spinning at every stop light. Once I got some heat in them the highway drive home showed no drama. I now have all-season tires for cold weather. Don't want to risk it.

I'm currently without a boiler as it's gone tits up on me. No central heating for the last 4 days. If there's space could I set up my bed in there!!?

Tomorrow the gas man arrives to install a new boiler. Sadly this will result in a £2468.48 poorer Tacklebury....

Ask him to do a black friday deal, if he doesn't, say you'll do him one and take it for free and kick him out your house... or you know, pay up ;)

Um.. no idea. +14? I've got 80 miles on mine and have yet to drive it in the dry so I'm kinda thinking I'm done until either a dry day or the spring :(

It might still be on my dash cam. I didn't take a picture of the temp reading but you can see the heavy frost on the bonnet. I'll check the memory card.

Minus 9 for me, gentle progressive throttle, no issues. Haven't used snow/wet mode for a bit, but will use it when its snowing tho.

-6 is my lowest. Some way to go to beat SSC.

Had a nice sideways moment coming out of my street this morning which was actually quite good fun - barely any throttle either! Luckily car gripped when I hit the main road.

Pretty sure we'll see some high minus figures up here in hoop hoo land, I'm just about to drop my youngest off at a work's night out, showing -2 on the sync, pretty sure it's colder than that and it's only half eight.

No snow/wet mode, just brace pills and leave in 'normal', i'll line lock it for a bit of heat :lol:

Reversing camera fogs up incredibly quickly when the zorst goes on, becomes kinda pointless... :/
