I hope the new owner won't be using it in the wet or to attend the local cruises, and I hope 3 tonnes of ice is'nt added.

Seems silly not to use it all the time though, if u pay 8k for a car and leave it in the garage that is a waste!
That car needs to be driven, if its raining so waht, clean it when u r done with it. At the end of the day its only a car.

Why is it silly?
people like to have there cars in perfect condition and only to be used on sunny day where it can be enjoyed at its best.
using a car like that everyday i would say it silly, as you would be buying a car which is worth say 8k and it would go very tatty very quickly plus you couldent really leave it anywhere without being worried.
My corsa is only used on sunny days, i have a second car to run about it.

Chumbly I think your missing the point, have you seen underneath it? Have you seen it up close? Every SINGLE nut, bolt, washer, screw has been replaced, your not going to do all that work then take it out in the rain to your local cruise and ruin the hard work.
If you have a 2nd car there is no reason to use it in the winter, I have no use for my Nova in winter and with the hard work gone into it I don't want to see it ruined by the salt and grit on the roads.
