I'd have to disagree, Mart. I don't know anyone, however careful, who has got a set of Volks sucessfully through a UK winter - without locking the car in the garage for 4 months of course!
Me Infact 2 winters now
Got mine from Envy but had a 5 month wait for them
You never drive it though!
8000 miles in the last 2 & half years
And how much of that has been in the crap weather with salt etc on the road?
I don't drive mine when it's like that and my wheels get tucked up in the garage! In fact I have one in my living room.....
