I have had the max reading of 32 in France last year and on the opposite end, three years ago in the highlands of bonnie Scotland the reading went down to minus 15. The scorp coped admirabaly with all of these extreems. Incedently, the following morning  in the highlands all I could see of the scorp was the ariel twig top. It started first time but I had to be towed out by my brother-in-laws landi.......slip slidin away :)
In very deep snow the scorp leaves a lot to be desired. :-/

Back in August 2002 (I think), when I had my old Scorp, I remember it was stiffling & was actually the hottest day recorded for god nows how many years.

The Scorp was in the garage having some work done & when I picked it up mid-afternoon. I got in & checked the temp on the dash....42 degrees  :o....& I didn't have aircon  :'(.....luckily though, I didn't have black leather either, so at least my bare legs & the seat didn't become one  ;)  ;D

I think it was August 2003 mate ;)

I remember the hottest day in 2005, had to drive into London that day...that was the day my autobox decided it'd had enough and started losing gears as I came off the motorway, got onto a side road and it started belching steam...never did find the cause of that steam... ::)

Wish me luck...got a ton of drywall coming today, hope it's not too hot :(

Regards, Bruce.
