While you're at it it, strip out the back seats, get some lightweight buckets, and do a proper job on it.

I find it so hard to believe people couldn't live without it  :confused:  :chicken: even in the summer I much prefer the window down on a nice day.

I don't deal with heat well. AC is a godsend for me. I suppose if you're on the move and you're getting lots of air in through the window it's fine. I sometimes prefer that to AC. But sat in traffic, on those 30deg days (and we've had a few), I just can't take it. It reduces me to a short tempered disaster waiting to happen.

Are you going to turn it into a proper track car then? I would personally, if it was a weekend thing. There aren't many better mods than weight saving if you've got the luxury of it.

You're spot on here :happy2:

If you're mostly on good open A and B roads Air con is hardly ever missed :smiley:

But as AJP has said....

In the city;

Air con on = Calm, slow, boring commute to work
Air con delete = sweaty road rage inducing, life shortening, slow commute to work :laugh: :rolleye: :laugh:
