Well, it wasn't mine, because mine was (is still, more or less) Jasmine
Yellow. And I will vouch for the fact that it was pretty miserable in
upstate NY in the winter. On the good side, it would start well down to
about -15 F. On the bad side, traction in anything resembling ice or snow
was pitiful. Heater was ok until the blower motor dies.
That's why I started driving beater Volvo wagons in winter!
