Some pleb on my street has just got into his 59 plate Merc SLK which has been sat, knee deep in snow without being moved, started or anything for over 5 days in sub zero temperatures. As you'd expect he wanted the heaters to blow warm so as soon as he got in it he started it............and floored the poor thing. As I type he is still sat revving the life out of it and has been for a good five minutes. Are people dumb or what? Poor Merc!
