Snow chains: check.

Working heaters: check.
Easy cold starts: check.
Working headlights, erm.. well.. Not so good

Oh no, I'd better start swapping over to the cold weather petrol mix and pre-warm my spark plugs.
Oh, wait, maybe I'll just turn the key.

Yours is much like a veg burning diesel, except ours only run on 3 until they're warm

Pity they still sound and feel like they're running on 2 even when they are warm.
RE: its getting colder! - Poodle - 21-10-2013
Pity they put out three times the power whilst retaining twice the mpg of your 1.4. Wait, that's not a pity at all, I love derv! :p
RE: its getting colder! - Rippthrough - 21-10-2013
So, your HDI does 100-140mpg does it?
Have you checked your hands for strings, signs of wood knots, etc?

Dude if your only running on 3 till its warm youve got issues.
mine always used to start on 4 even when id forgot to mix petrol and had to start her on gas
