|  Highest temperature in your car
I have a friend who on a hot day shuts his windows and turns on the heater full.
Why? To see how hot he can make it. He has a watch with a low/high temperature reading.
What is the highest temperature you've ever had in your car? I've had mine to hot to touch the steering wheel but that was just on a warm day, and I certainly cooled the car own before I drove it.

I've never measured the temperature in my car... At a guess I'd say b****y hot!

The Swedish are able to tolerate high temperatures so an in car sauna shouldn't be a problem to them. Perhaps Hayley has some Swedish blood?

The heaters in Volvos and Saabs are so efficient you can do a baked potatoe in 20 minutes!
