Not totally road legal. Winter tyres are compulsory from the 1st of December. I actually drove to the car wash to get the car ready for the winter jobs I have in store for it.
Welcome to my never ending GKD Legend build. The car became road legal in September 2011. The Swedish summers are fantastic but to survive the dark winters I always have a long list of improvements to do. The 1900cc 4 cylinder engine comes from a RHD 1998 BMW 318is M44. It has been upgraded many times over the years with eg. Mini Cooper S Eaton M45 Super Charger taking it from 140 to 220HP. (Parts list Jan 2020)

Winter drawers on!
I couldn't resist going for a quick spin this morning. It was minus 8.5oC but with a few extra clothes it was actually fantastic to be at one with the elements (literally!) I'm seriously considering getting a set of winter tyres for early spring when the skies are clear and the sun is usually shining.
