Jimmy ownership has provided a few "moments", rescued two car loads stuck in a drift, found arctic scenes close to home and generally been impressed with the car. My first winter with it and it's easily as capable as my past 4x4's, an old swb landcruser and a Navara.
Off to the chemist this morning, see if they need anything taking out.

The BFG A/T's are the best thing I have ever used in snow.

Crazy morning, these van drivers are loopy, dragged one out and he was miles from help. Drifting has blocked many side roads and a few of the smaller villages are all but isolated. Went in with meals on wheels to Elmton and Creswell, everybody is being very thankful for the help but I'm just honest and tell them I'm enjoying myself. £30 quids worth of fuel and I've had about ten hours over the two days, helped quite a few in trouble and had an absolute blast.

Vans all over the place
I can understand the need to get home but some of these guys must have been in serious trouble, when the winds were at their worst, a half hours walk without the right gear could've killed you. Hero gas man who had been trying to get to an old couple for hours was frozen but determined to get there, me and the meals on wheels truck beat a path through a 100 yds of drifts for him
