Nope, will be used as usual with the exception of using the missus's car the odd day. Would love to wrap her up (the car that is) for the winter but enjoy driving her to much.

Agreed - all that nice cold air whooshing through the intercooler and engine - my economy drops from 280 to 220 mp tank, but its worth every penny
