It's a facelift Royal Navy Blue with Work XSA wheels I think.
Hope the owner is ok, cars can be replaced.

Much smugness taking off up New Road tonight ( Nick will know where i mean ) ... after stopping to let someone reverse into their drive half way up the hill, managed to get VTEC out of 1st without really losing traction. Same could not be said for the BMW 5 series behind me. Admittedly if it's ice then that's different but this slushy slippy powdery snow is what winter tyres were designed for. The fact I don't have a bunch of electrical nannies stopping play is the icing on a very pleasant cake.

Absolute bag of shite earlier but still managed to get the swine across town, on the limit S001's on the rear so my own doing really......These first timers of rear wheel drive, front engine cars must wonder what's going on.

I always found mine total shite on Bridgestones in any sprinkling of snow. I remember trying to get home from a colleagues place up a tiny hill and it needed a push

On winter's its all very easy though, so I pull my classic out of hibernation in snow

I get some funny looks from 4x4s and the like as I scoot by haha

I'll leave this here. It's a few years old now and we've not really had any snow of late for a retake.

Until today - 2" and counting where we are which isn't much ... but it's enough to grind everyone else to a standstill whilst i thread my way home.
