Indeed, might try and get away without a new light to boot!

Hope you can get sorted without losing an arm and a leg

+1. That’s a complete bummer Neil, sorry to see you’ve been so unlucky to have that happen.

Ouch…….I feel for you, Neil, and hope that the damage can be repaired without hitting your wallet too hard!

Saturday saw a scattering of snow, Sunday it was 4 inches deep and icy.
I don't have winter tyres, just 21 inch zeros.
The Macan was fantastic both days, was really impressed.

We were staying in the Langdale hotel. Over 8 inches fell in places and road getting to Elterwater was completely blocked. Nothing in or out. Abandoned cars everywhere.

Never seen snow come down like that for 20+ years. We ended up having to spend another night. Luckily the road was cleared and gritted so we could get out today.

They started running out of draught beer last night

But yes, spectacular part of the Lakes and a few nice pubs in easy walking distance.

At least the car is only silver and doesn’t show as bad

If you had paid for a proper colour it would have hurt
