Driving in Germany Oct/Nov

[73CSL]

might take the CSL on a quick one day trip into Germany this month. It seems winter tyres are required in 'Wintery condtions' by law.

Do you think I'll legally be OK on supersports ?

That will depend entirely on whether it snows or not... Unlikely but stranger things have happened. It's fairly warm at the moment though. The important part is that if you have an accident while your car has "inappropriate tyres for the conditions" then it's much more likely you'll be liable even if it might not have been your fault. Don't quote me on that last bit mind.

I'm currently weighing up whether to buy a set or to buy a cheap car instead to run over the winter.

Weather doesn't look like it will be an issue for me this weekend so should be fine :thumbs:

Where are you going? Anywhere nice? I'm heading back up to Stuttgart and the 'ring this weekend and next week, be nice to see a CSL if there's one about. No tourist sessions during the week though

Headed to Dusseldorf, so no where exciting. All motorway work, bit of a waste of the CSL really, but it did make a very good GT car :thumbs:
