Nice pic. Love the trees. For battery, I only use Bosch so far. They last me for years. |

The 57 is out of the garage again. Started up right away. It's nice to drive it again. |

Nice surprise today. A friend of my chef came in with 5 2cv wheels with almost new tyres / Four Michelin winter tyres and one Michelin X. Cadeau. |

Michelin winter tyres are really nice. I've got a pair on wheels for the front of mine if things get bad. |

Yes they are very good. I remember one winter where only my 2cv and the local bus got through a heavy snow covered street. |

Not really a good idea to have winter tyres on one axle and keeping summer tyres on the other. You'll risk spinning the car and losing control. I just run summer tyres on the Deuche all-year-round, and the modern hack has Michelin CrossClimate+ on each corner all-year-round as they're an excellent all-season tyre for the UK. |

I'd love to be able to afford Michelin tyres. Apart from the two snow ones I had for the front, I've only ever had Toyo etc. |

I did try to adjust the steering of the 57. After the getting rid of the play in the steering rack the car did pull to the left a bit. As the old models don't have adjuster screws i had to take the ball joint apart and change some shimms over from on to the other side of the steering arm ball. Will see if that worked, it was a dirty job. |
