My new little car has never seen the cold before (I bought it last February - after the horrendous winter of December/January). It has a large sign that lights up and tells me - ICE.
I hired a car to get me to Prestatyn of all places the other weekend, I didn't trust my sturdy yet 11 year old Suzuki Ignis to make the journey from Lincolnshire, across the Peak District, down below Manchester then across into North Wales.
Brand new late 2011 Seat Ibiza (I have real problems with big cars and even being in them), the thing is it terrified me. So many options that effectively the driver became a passenger. Cruise control? Jesus, frightening! When I drive I want to be in control, unless KITT was talking to me at the same time! No wonder so many drivers fall asleep at the wheel.
