Title: Your Cars & The Elements
Post by: MikLSP on March 13, 2014, 11:04:15 pm: Hi, after taking some shots of my car in the fog last night, I thought it might be interesting to see if anyone has any good pictures of theirs in various conditions; sun, rain, snow, fog, mud, whatever :happy2:

Here are some of mine...

Looking at the back, I want to say Peugeot 307 or MkII Renault Megane?

My laziness cost me a rear wiper :signLOL:
Title: Re: Your Cars & The Elements
Post by: MikLSP on March 15, 2014, 09:01:55 pm: A Clio, not far off with the Megane then :smiley:

Did the wiper break with the sheer weight of snow?!

That's the most I can ask from any of my pictures, thanks :happy2:
I have actually just added a couple more to the first post.

@ rob_e
Looks ready for action, almost like an advert.

================================

Meanwhile, from snow to desert! Here's my very own Saharan sand dune which has gathered beneath the rear windscreen over the last few days.

Samoens, not far. Noone's ever hear of the place though... Its just south of Morzine.
Title: Re: Your Cars & The Elements
Post by: MAT ED30 on April 07, 2014, 05:24:44 pm: yep i know the place spend every year in the alps will be back in a few months love the place
Title: Re: Your Cars & The Elements
Post by: MikLSP on April 07, 2014, 05:36:20 pm: I know Morzine, my Auntie lives there. Don't know the surrounding area that much though.

I was also fortunate to have those ground lights nearby to make use of.

I wasn't worried, I had snow tyres on...
Title: Re: Your Cars & The Elements
Post by: MikLSP on April 22, 2014, 02:39:54 pm: Never get that much snow over here
Title: Re: Your Cars & The Elements
Post by: MikLSP on June 22, 2014, 07:45:43 pm: Another one to add here, this time with the wind! Obviously that's a little elusive to photograph so it is represented by the turbine at Lancaster University.

Post by: MikLSP on September 21, 2014, 08:40:22 pm: Love the afro, not sure it'd do the aerodynamics much good though :wink:

Another one for dirt and dust here after what turned out to be an ill-advised shortcut out of Southport to avoid the queues leaving the airshow; I did avoid them but also found ourselves getting a bit adventurous down rather bumpy, incredibly dusty tracks!
