Off to LRE West Country at the Weekend to do their Exmoor Trec Day, so decided to swap the Pirelli Scorpion Zeros for the Grabber ATs for the occasion.
Collected them from storage at lunchtime and I just love the fact that the boot looks like it's been purposely designed to accommodate four 255/55/19 tyres and wheels.
Wonder if the D5 will be as accommodating?
