summer

I have 205/55/16 Pirelli P6000 tyres fitted all round on my C320 saloon. I think they may be the "Powergy" range but am unsure without checking, the unused spare certainly is. They are all fairly new with good tread, one brand new last Saturday as the one it replaced was out of shape...

According to a popular search engine, today is officially the first day of summer. I'm glad I read that because I would never had known by looking out the window here in overcast Bromley.

Don't really know if this is cheap but looks a lot of car for £5995 1996 Mercedes-Benz SL 320 AMG WHEELS | eBay UK Only a SL320 but 85K miles and looks quite tidy.

Right - that's that done for the summer. Detail is not a verb (neither is text but that's another story) Process - cleaned at local hand car wash, followed up by Autoglym Super Resin then Autoglym HD Wax. I like Autoglym HD Wax.

I currently travel the same route every Monday morning before traffic builds so can achieve reasonably close results. I changed my wheel / tyre combination from winter 17" to the fitted as standard 18" summer conti's over the weekend. I have then driven down the A12 over the Dartford crossing...

Hopefully it will be passed in July.... "Ministers hope to get the 80mph measure through Parliament before MPs break up for their own holidays in July." M-way speed limit set to be raised to 80 this summer - Politics - News - People.co.uk

Out of interest, when do forum members generally take off their winter tyres/wheels? I believe most people use winter tyres from November to March, but would be interested to know people's practices. Particularly as it feels so much warmer recently!

....Have arrived for the ML. Lovely Jubbly :D All I need now is the, err, summer :o The plan now is to get the 20" wheels, currently on the car with Conti Winters on, refurbed sometime around March. Has anyone used these people and would you recommend them with AMG wheels...

Just thinking of all the jobs i planned to do when i bought my 450sl in march. So many " five minute jobs" that were going to be completed before winter ! Suddenly , its almost 2011 . Stands to reason then , summer must be around the corner. In no time at all The Boss will be looking for another...

Is there any reason not to use winter tyres through the summer months, I work for a company running 20 cars and they are looking into the benefits of using winter tyres (at my suggestion) and have asked if they can be used in warmer weather as well, the cars do around 50,000 miles a year so they...

Needing new tyres soon, so have been trying to research what is available. I have noticed some tyres are referred to as summer tyres and some are all season. I imagine this is due to how the 'rubber' acts in the ambient temperature. (A bit like oil viscosity ranges and ambient temperatures) Now...

Hello all I have just bought a facelift W203 320CDI which has a lot of options courtesy of the previous owners company allowance. Everything works fine except I tried the summer opening before going to work and it would not respond, unlocked & started as normal and when reversing the...

:confused: Been working in Derbyshire today in my little signalbox and the weather has been horrendous. Where's the BBQ summer gone? Jetting off to the monster-in-laws in Spain for 3 weeks on sunday so good luck with the rest of August and I hope the weather gets a lot better :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Hi Folks As many of you know I subscribe to the "cars should be driven" school of thought... So I did exactly that. Set off From Helensburgh Up Loch Lomand (a82) and onto the rest and bethankful pass where I stopped off for some pics I then charged onto Inverarry, lovely drive down...

had a card in the post this morning about this (Summer Event under offers & events if the link hasn't worked), just wondered if it might be worth going? the roof could do with a good clean! :p

Today, get home from work at 5pm, warm (12c) and sunny, spring like. It did, however, snow last week, so I'm not convinced. Quick look at the weather forecast & jetstream reassured me, so I make it official.... Winter tyres off, summer tyres on:bannana::bannana::bannana:
