Came back from Oxfordshire last night via M4.
Is it any surprise the roads are full of Jack-Knifed trucks????...I was quite content doing 50mph in Lane 1 as the other two were white without any tyre tracks at all as the snow continued fo fall...Was expecting the odd 4x4 to pass, but no... every artic raced passed doing 60mph + bumper to bumper...madness.
If I saw any of the families trucks doing this I would have them sacked!

Great idea to have a high viz coat (or vest) in the car...
wish I had one last night! the last mile or so was down a country road,
no streetlights, no pavement...the brightest thing I was wearing was my chattering teeth!
luckily very few cars (and they were travelling slower than I was walking)...

They have all been watching Ice Road Truckers and imagine everyone else on the road is just another moose that does not matter....
Winds me up almost as much as elephant racing on 2 lane sections of the M11 and A1 (elephant racing = where it takes 4 miles to pass because they are both restricted but one is to 56.0002 mph not 56.0mph)

I get more admiring looks when driving the Pagoda than I ever get when in the GS. I think that it is probably one of the prettiest cars ever made. Every angle works.
I don't use it much, I take it out for an early Sunday morning run of about 150 miles once a month so long as the roads are dry and there is no salt around. Otherwise it sits in the garage or on the drive, looking beautiful

Just did a search to see what a Pagoda was - after my first effort which threw up pictures of Kew Gardens I chanced upon this page - a bit random I know but have a look at some of the motors here!
