VR6Pete 1,455 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 What are your winter plans for your VR6? Do you store it in the garage? Subject it to winter conditions? Improvements? Major work? Shortly after the brooklands event ill be storing the car off road in my garage, over the winter months it will be going to stealth to have my oil burning issues sorted and steering rack replaced, already looking forward to next year already! So, what are your plans for your loved one? (The car. Not the mrs/wife) lol. Club Link to post Share on other sites

Therusterman 59 Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Just keep on driving it, done plenty of work on mine this year so need to just sit back and enjoy it. When the weather gets a little cooler the winter wheels will come out of hibernation, have a few layers of poorboys put on them, then enjoy having grip in the wet again. Got some black a/b/c pillars to git at some poin too. Link to post Share on other sites
