Hello from Finland..this is my daily driver :): http://picasaweb.google.fi/har.sanen/MGZTTV82004#
Owned it from June, it's been in Finland couple years.
Problems this far: water in the leftside floors, airbaglight stays sometimes on, quite poor aircondition/heating.. But it works really well although last week there was 25 below zero.

A big welcome to from the cold and frosty midlands where the roads are icy and my car goes really slow at the moment. Perhaps some cold weather driving tips?

Good morning. It's -20 ... reeeeally fine. I have Nokia Hakkapeliitta 7's on the original alloys and this far managed quite well .. soft snow is worse than icy roads.
edit:. more snow comin'

Hi Harri

Welcome to the collective, in answer to your problems, I believe some of the saloons have had water coming in through the boot causing wet carpets but I have not heard of this problem with the estate but someone may come along with an answer for you. The airbag light is a common problem caused by the connectors under the front seats, I have cut mine out and replaced them with spade connectors, I think others have soldered the cables. The air conditioning is weak and you have to give it a bit of time. If it sticks in either a high or low temperature speak to Black Olive (member here) and he will sort you out with a new heater valve.

Enjoy the car, there's lots of good info here and everyone is very helpful if you're not sure about something.

Thank you!
Wet carpets are now frozen :D. I also heard that connectors may cause the airbag problem (some BMW's too?).
May I ask about the wheels, is ET something between 45-50 ok? For summer I need other set..

Welcome to the family!:D
Yes, an ET of 45-50 is good, original ET is 50.
I keep mine in the garage during the winter cause of all the salt they throw out here in the south of Sweden.
