Snow!

I know it's early to be talking about the white stuff, but it seem's we're in for a very snowy winter if you're on the west side of the UK:

Park heat will be a useful addition to the heated seats, heated front screen and heated steering wheel. What I would really like though would be a heated garage that is big enough to get the Range and the Defender into. Currently I have the heated garage but need an Evoque sized Land Rover Or a Defender with air suspension to get through the door. 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

Bring it on I say.

My first Winter with the Range so I'm hoping for a bit of snow...... fingers crossed and I'll be towing the bloke down the road in his Cayenne who was slip sliding all over the place last year. Wink

Funny though - even SWMBO noticed....she was a the windows, watching him slide up and down and she called me over

You don't need all these toys to drain the battery when you have a heated garage Very Happy

I can get a Defender in my garage Tim (not the camel though) as I am changing the standard old door to a new one that gives an extra 15cm of opening height and 15cm of door opening width. Thumbs Up

Now I just need to find a 90... Laughing

(It's a bog standard garage)

Touch wood I've never had a problem with battery drain on any of my Range Rovers. I think mainly because I try to buy 100% standard ones that haven't been fiddled with.

I've learnt my lessons from cars with aftermarket alarms, remote starts or amp/sub setups that drain the battery.

This is my garage, it took me 21 months to build, I did not do the block work or the roughcast, but everything else was all my own work

Steel buildings sweat too much, I don't think anyone living in the UK would keep that selection of cars in a steel building, they wouldn't last long Big Cry
