![]() Evening all,
This will be my first winter with my 75, first of all I'm hoping my battery is ok in the sub zero conditions, and does the 75 have any ice warning indicator? The weather for my region tonight is -2 (Ipswich ,Suffolk)

![]() Only jesting. No there is no specific ice warning except for the temp read out, which hopefully should be enough ![]() Never had a problem with the battery and car has started first time, every time, even when it's been like this ![]() Mike ![]()

![]() Batteries are good. Not marked MGR at all. My car will be 6 on 6 December and afaik is on it's original battery still.
Good idea for a caption competition -we should do it with brand new pics as soon as we get the first snow ![]()

![]() If your car is 6 on 24 December then, like R40, it was Longbridge built. Production stopped at Cowley in Summer 2000 and resumed at Longbridge in October 2000.
Lates and Pete did my cambelt over the Summer. Job was a good'un Mike ![]()

![]() OK your car was built at Cowley (the 11th letter of the vin represents assembly plant, M = Cowley, D = Longbridge) . so your car will have been part of the Cowley built stock inherited by MGR at the time of transfer and so already more than 6 years since build
