    That's a lovely Impreza you have there, Gonzo. How does it cope with the cold?

    The Impreza handles the cold very well, as long as the block heater stays powered overnight, it starts every time, even in -25c and colder.

    also Turbo+AWD+ Studded Rally Snowtire = Very fun winters here :)

    You will see it on older vehicles , but unlike eastern Canada, we do not Salt our roads in the west, we use 'soft' gravel , which actually get recycled every year, and only used in the busiest areas that tend to ice over badly.

    I have had two cars over 15 years old with only minimum rust starting to occur in the fender well. All in how you care for them I suppose.

    I'm glad it's not. Russians can't drive for shit if all of those videos on YouTube are anything to go by.

    Russians by law need dashcams, I think it should be a law here too.

    I miss my car :(

    Luckily I have insurance, I should have my car back this week. It's so weird not having a car, even though I just had it for a month.

    It was rather minor, it's just the damn wait time.

    Buying a Ninja 250 - joining the "temporary citizen" club.

    May also consider production class races as a mate is into it. Who's got some bikes to post up?
