Hopefully not this year as got our workshop nearly finished now, just a bit of painting and installing a heater to go now.

Have done lots of work on the driveway in shit conditions before though, sometimes its the only option.

My old man who is well into his 60s was lieing on the floor in the snow on the driveway helping me fit the gearbox onto my 3 door a few years ago after i'd just put a different engine into it

Nah not this year, snow has come early so kills off even washing the car. I was changing a steering rack in my old saph this time last year in the dark in 1 degree C but that was a bit of a necessity.
I drove past my mates house late last week when it was snowing and saw floodlights at the end of his driveway, phoned him tol be told he'd just bought a 600bhp engine for his Evo and was desperate to get it fitted, f@*k that lol.

To be honest, I'd probably be better off outside than in my barn. It traps the cold air inside and makes it colder in doors than out
