Cold effect on ZS?

Just wondered what effects this weather was having on peoples zeds.

Mine:
The release for the petrol tank froze, so had to get a screwdriver involved.

The doors handles froze, not closed but once I opened them they wouldnt spring back preventing the doors from closing, until the handle had been pushed in.

Also developed an anoying squeek from the clutch pedal.

Joke is its not even been that cold here. You scots must have some issues or stories!

I've had the frozen door handle sketch, and the door seal freezing to the window frame.

Just have to play about with the catch you will have bent it slightly just need to bend it back. Although mine is the same as could be bother to deal with it at half six in the filling station!
