I would put a picture of mine but its not that snowy here as it is in UK! So it won't be as impressive as any of those pictures. We do have snow forcast for the next 4 days solid though so I'll see how it looks then We do have icicles though:

Ok, here is my 940 Sports Edition taken yesterday:




And after a few hours digging today:



The car started first time after over a month sitting on the drive. I must say it is surprisingly efficient in the snow - the locking diff seems to work really well. Just need some snow socks and I'm ready for just about anything.......

This was in January this year



Didn't actually take any of the car under snow now, here is the garden to give you an idea though.







spot the ducks hiding in the snow?

Heres my 850 as of yesterday:



A fair amount melted earlier in the day but still quite a lot... intended to clear it off both 760 and 850 today but it was too cold and was gonna take too long! There was that much I used a broom on it, not that it seemed to have much of an effect

Heres hoping for a nice balmy 10 degrees tomorrow
