I've driven in zero degrees with frost and in torrential rain - car never feels less than surefooted. As you would expect, all the contact patches are optimised and working as they should, touring chassis and Goodyears no doubt helping too.

Everything works that needs to work in these conditions - overall visibility is great, screen clears well, demisting front rear and sides all works, heated seats bloody lovely and climate control does the biz.

Following some high speed driving in manky conditions, the shots below give you a really clear picture of all the air management at work.

It's impressive how evenly distributed the flow marks are across the body panels. It looks like you got a wind tunnel model lol.

It's good to read that the car handles whatever is thrown at it. Doesn't seem much upsets it if anything. That was one of the things Chris Harris commented on, was how stable the car was driving through a blasting wind/rain storm on the way up to Anglesey.

Honestly, it's awesome. A combination of its inate planted-ness and stuff doing what it should. My Emira was collected 04-04-23 and is on a trickle charge every night. I drive it damn hard too.
