Nothing to do really apart from swap out the screenwash for a freeze resistant formulation. I keep my car in peak condition all year round.

I have most of those things, but as I hardly ever go further than 6 miles from home in it Ive not gone too mad as if I got stuck in the snow I'd just leave it and walk home.

The Land Rover is always loaded with the essentials and ready to roll in any condition, even a tow strap so I can pull stranded cars and vans out of my way. However last night the brake lights packed up so waiting for a switch, alas the MG was put back in service last night. Fitted new aero wipers last night that were sat in their box still, wasn't intending on using the MG until next year! Good job that is always tip top and ready to roll whenever needed.
