Brilliant!! Enjoy the car when you get it, it'll be ideal for these slippery conditions. Mine is definitely in Aberdeen now, snowed in ironically!! I've resigned myself to an early New Year treat rather than an early Christmas present! Will you be posting any pictures? I'm not sure I've seen a white one yet.

Fab. So pleased you got it in time for Xmas. How are you enjoying it so far? I've only done 150 miles since I got it. Most of it driving in the snow. But I'm very impressed with it. So glad it came before the snow did. We have about a foot and a half of snow here in places. It feels really steady on the roads and haven't felt any slide whilst driving it. I have taken some pictures of it in the snow. I might try and put some on.

I have been very impressed with the handling in the snow so far, and the car itself it very nice both inside and out.

Been outside in the snow setting up the sat nav and the iPod connections. Might sit next to the window and look at her tonight

Never really been a fan of white but can't help thinking how nice it looks. Congrats on your purchase.
