So the Christmas season is here the house will be jammed packed with screaming kids and relatives so do you take an hour or two to take the car for a spin to get a bit of peace and quiet and enjoy the traffic free roads at Christmas?
There is a few guys local to me who take their cars for a drive on Christmas Day to dust off the cobwebs (some cars would only be out once or twice a year) and meet up....anyone else do the same or do any other car related things to clear the head?
Yeah I always take advantage of the quite roads on xmas day for some spirited driving...
Traffic free roads?? I wish! I think every fecker in Wicklow decides to put on a christmas jumper and stay in 2nd gear...
Yep.... I drive into Central London as I'm then able to take pics of car outside some quality buildings / places as no-one there...!
Xmas day no, usually visiting Wifes family, then mine, then drop her back to her's, I got back to mine.. dinner etc, go home finally get pissed
Though it does sound like a plan all the same
errr .... NO !
presents get opened 1st .. followed by drinking
I dont need to escape from anyone ... they cant get to me at the bottom of my glass
Every year I do yeah. Empty carparks everywhere lol.
Yep, Ill be out and about in the morning when folk are in Church, then Ill probably come home and go to the workshop and play, days off are rare so I really can't wait.
Xmas day,i'll be slipping out for work for 12 hours!
and the next day
and the next day

You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!
You're a copper though ???? ... You get to go and beat up drnk welsh lads infront of their women .... Best Xmas present ever !!!!!

I brought the SX on this two weeks ago. A full day of driving and lunch and then dinner. 162 miles, 28 cars and 36 people. A proper day out.

Xmas day no but I'll be bringing in the new year with some tomfoolery I would imagine, warding off bad spirits and all that

mark how did you get involved with that? looks like a good day out...
That looks brilliant Mark. These are the kind of events that I'd like to have an SXOC presence at
Also, did I see you on the Tallaght bypass earlier today, about 2.30 was driving behind you and got stuck at a red light before I could wave
I'm at my parents all day and I'd love to take the SX for a blast, currently it's sorn'd in there garage with no insurance hibernating for the winter months
I have a pug 206 1.4lx but don't want to be seen dead in it any longer than I have to
Enjoyed thatMy mini Nurburgring road has always got other cars on but this morning I had a complete run at it and didn't see another car till the very end. I wish it could be Christmas everyday....
While the turkey was in I popped out and used a fair bit of petrol in a very short amount of time. Had my food now and the beers are out so the keys are well and truly hung up till tomorrow afternoon.
Happy Christmas people. Hope your days are all good.
No, since I drive a boring-mobile now. I would've gone out on the bike but a) is was absolutely pissing it down and b) it has no chain at the moment so it'd be a bit slow.
