Mine's taxed throughout the winter this year, but I'm choosing my days carefully. Don't like salt!:mad:
just reinsured and tax'd mine, the salt puts me off driving it to work as much as I was, havent used it much since the gritters got going, but I'll be taking it down the pub on Sunday and probably having the odd blast over the winter :angel:

Mine will be out on Sunday too; at the same pub I expect ;)
If I'd taken mine off the road it would now be in 1000 pieces, never to be put back together, just like the others :rolleyes:

Mines in bits at the mo:( , but this is the 1st winter it won't be used. I use to use it every day and the best days were the ice and snow ones, less ware and tear on the tyres, diff and gearbox:jumpy:
