    ah seriously when is this ice/snow gonna end its a nightmare.
    dont get me wrong you just slow down and its grand but...

    Havin only bought an alfa GT before xmas I feel like I have hardly got to drive it yet.

    And if that wasnt enough I got up this morning to go to an exam and de iced the car with water as normal slightly luke warm water over the entire thing a few times till it was what looked like completely clear.

    Anyway I open the door the window just about rolled down as it normally does and then I get in try close the door but it wont close the lock had seized up completely and it wouldnt click into place.

    Eventually I just had to leave the car and take the missuses car closed the door over as best i could and came back 2 hours later and it closed fine.

    I presume cause I hadnt driven it in a few days the lock was just so frozen it started seizing up.

    I sprayed some anti freeze at it that morning and when I got home used a bit of Wd40 on it so hopefully it'll stay ok and I will be opening the car every day now whether I'm using it or not so theres the tip people dont forget about your car!!!

    Open it and run the engine too. :)
