Yes we did. Sunny and 15C today. First drive of the season. Bit of shopping....almost lost the car in the Wal Mart lot ( hold yer comments!!), cup of coffee and snacks and parked at the beach in the sun and enjoyed the scenery here at the 49th parallel..then home and back under the cover. Ran great.,...got lots of admiring looks and felt alive again!!

I have been driving it all week here in NC. Not very exciting trips, to and from the grocery store and my kid's school (where I almost T-bonned somebody at an intersection; she did literally stop in the middle of it),
